Great question...this forum looks like the classified section. I have done three DE's in the last month and I only saw 1 GT3 and 0 RS...

A guy I know is going to sell his too, WTF? What a bunch of poseurs. His has about 1,200mi Orange, with PCBs, Nav etc. About 15k over the 150ish MSRP, I think. Let me know if you need to contact him.

Lot's of poseurs and speculators pumped up this car, forcing some enthusiasts to pay over MSRP and then lose out.

In the long term, these cars will still depreciate.

i've been following the classifieds for GT3s and the market is strong....you don't see cars asking below MRSP. Maybe they are not selling at that price, but then the sellers are not going down in their asking price either

John's post was all fun and games until I saw a White US Spec Enzo for sale this morning! Hmmmm.

I would like to get a Scuderia but there is simply zero probability of an allocation.

I would have liked an RS but the market said NO

And it was hard enough just getting a regular GT3!!!!!

Wait until first of year...alll '07s will be at around MSRP...used and new. If economy tanks more they will be even less and on their way out of the country.

LA964RS you're right- I've already got offers while driving over here because they know my dollar is shorter than their euros.

No matter what anyone says, this is not (in my opinion) a car to drive around town. It's not a fun car in traffic and is too stressful to leave in a supermarket parking lot. On the track it is as much fun as you can have. Those who bought "several" cars or those who bought one car and don't have time to drive it or any of the other stories that forced them to sell at 10-20-30k over the price they paid..., well they are taking advantage of market forces and certainly within their rights to do so. It's just one more cycle in the new new thing.
