    Personally I hope that it is worth a whole lot less than Matt paid for it. Then hopefully the dealers will stop the scams that they run on the allocations for GT cars and let people who want to dive them buy them, rather than 80% of them going to flippers.

      A lot of (if not all) super/hypercar manufacturers are like this. They're highly selective with whom can buy what - us plebs could buy the more common models if we wanted but the rarer and more exclusive models are reserved for those they choose are worthwhile. Ferrari is notoriously pretentious and bad in this area, you have to first have owned enough of their cars to be considered, but even then it's just a who's who of their richest clients that are even invited to buy one of the rare limited run models that will only appreciate in value.

      Because these cars have very bad MPG's and keeping them pristine
      16 combined city/highway
      14 city Highway MPG:18 highway
      They're show cars only, they're not designed for the road really, you wouldn't go further than down the road or a quick run down the motorway. if you live in a city you'll use half a tank sitting in traffic alone.
      If you're a multi millionaire then you don't really worry about the fuel costs, but general users who buy these type of cars. Normally have them for a year sometimes only a few months, because the cost of running them usually overwhelms them.
      Also when you're driving around a £220,000 car, a lot of buyers get driver worry, potential other drivers on the road crashing into it, or jealous individuals who will key it out of spite. That's why a lot who own these type of cars, will rarely drive them and keep them stored away.

      I can't speak from experience, but suspect it's a real pain to drive around. Loud, uncomfortable, sketchy in away. No driving aids, etc. After driving around the neighbourhood a few times, you just can't be bothered unless there's an amazing track day in good weather. Would you drive yours up Goodwood Hillclimb in the rain? It's a bit of a decision.

    I like the Gold decals, and the Satin PPF.
    I also fully appreciate your influence but , and this is more for some people who don't understand the way Porsche work, also very frustrating to many people who wanted a GT3 RS, but didn't get one! Despite a long history of purchasing Porsches - (which, if you random TH-cam comment readers weren't aware, you cannot just buy a GT3/RS - you often need to be one of the dealers top usually 2-3 customers)
    This means buying a Macan for your wife, a Boxster for your son/daughter, a 911 for you, and changing cars every 18 months to 2 years, for 4-5 years, before you can even get onto the list.
    I am glad however, that you are using your car, and doing a few little mods and tweaks etc - I quite like the changes you have made, subtle but different - Many of these unfortunately sit in garages or are used as commodity trading things (basically, it's a way to get £100k+ tax free profit for the loyal Porsche customers).

    The 991 gt3rs and gt3 have dropped the 992 will too. There's loads on the market relatively, cost of borrowing is very high, the speculators are leaving the market and the drivers realise there are sensible options eg a 991 gt3 at 90k vs 992 gt3rs at 400k with 35bhp difference, cars are evolving faster than ever with electric contributing to performance cars and the end of manual or combustion engines fear has rightly dissipated.

    The clear "light design" package doesn't look right - the red bar is iconic and looks way better contrasting against silver.

    Philip : They've dropped. Obviously the whole market is suffering. Prices have come down across the board. There are signs that there is some improvement in the market........
    Matt : So, Ferraris, have they held their values better than McLarens?
    Philip : It's all plateaued because obviously interest rates. So, this year, especially the last six months, you know, has been quiet. I have seen a turn-around recently in the last couple of months, you know where people have started spending more money......

    Since he is financing a large portion of it and doing so for a fairly long time his cost is not going to be what he paid for it to begin with. In addition, since he seems to be driving it at over 100 miles a per month, it will soon get over 1,000 miles and loose another 5% or so of its value. This is of course before factoring in all the high costs of ownership (insurance, maintenance). Finally as others pointed out, a lot also depends on what Porsche comes out with next - what is the next hot Porsche.
