the c2s i believe has always been the more fun to drive - i would expect sales for the c2s to increase re 991 since now they come in the WB body style. c4s wins out for cold weather and all year usage of course.

I would disagree. this is for sure a porsche and the best driving SUV you will find in this segment.

Although I’d take a GT2RS if given to me, I am way more of a GT3 Touring fan. I think that’s the perfect mix of race and daily.

I work for Porsche and I love Rolex watches. I feel there are a lot of similarities between the two brands in terms of quality and desirability. Porsche is a driveable exotic and has won countless endurance races and most of all, has stood the test of time with its iconic look and quality engineering. Just like a Rolex.... Yes there are better and more expensive cars like Ferrari and Lamborghini and more expensive watches like Patek and AP, but right there is Porsche & Rolex!

When a client asks about purchasing a GT3 or GT3RS it’s easy to laugh since we typically have them sold years in advance and I can relate it to walking into an AD and asking for a Daytona or any stainless sports model. A similar marketing strategy?

Porsche’s claim is to build one less car than the market needs... Most cars being sold today are being Flipped and sold over MSRP and the same thing is happening with these watches. It’s unfortunate because it precludes the real end user from getting the product and enjoying the experience as it’s meant to be.

If my dealer called me for my GT3T or Spyder, he better know dang well that I won’t pay any dealer markup cr@p from him. Being 911 only guy and recently acquire Rolex watches, I would never pay any markup at Authorize Dealer. In secondary market people can sell whatever price they want, it’s capitalism but no AD for me. I love the driving dynamic of GT3, GT2, or RS but only for about an hour and I am all beat up and tiring. These days I want something comfortable and not too fast but still get my blood boil and my heart racing, I stick with 911S or GTS.
