I don't disagree with the disdain for modern porsche practices, but the counterpoint is what should they have done different?
Charge less for cars when the secondary market was over retail? Start a lottery for allocations instead of giving them to the suckers that were willing to buy 1/2 million in less desirable cars at full retail?
I get it I think the tactics suck but they are a company and profit maximizing is the goal. I would say quit building so many mecans and flood the market with GT3 right up to the equilibrium point with MSRP.
Porsche sports cars are still the most compelling at their pricepoints in many/most cases.
On the one hand I cant believe a 718 4.0 with 6mt and buckets is 125k, on the other hand there is no other new car Id rather have for 125k. A ginormous M4 or auto only still too big C8? Emira maybe if you have lotus pain tolerance.
180k for a regular 911 is crazy but again what else would you buy at that price point? Everything else is going to be 4000 lbs.
