I am going to be in the market for a sports car in the next 6-12 months so I went to look at Porsche!
Salesperson was nice did say getting a gt3 is near impossible but on the whole it left me wondering a few things… I was told that the current wait for a carrera is 18+ months!!
1.) I understand shortages but it seems like the product mix is out of whack when your (over?) producing on things like suvs / electric cars rather than the core stuff people want?
2.) There was a used GT3 for sale in the 280k range…
- If car availability is an issue is parts the same way if I have an issue will it take months?
4.) I’m really open to what is going to scratch the second / third car itch am I missing something I have cross shopped the Vette/zo6 - used GTR - Aston Martin - Merc SL line
Again the salesperson was nice let me drive multiple cars etc (was a bit cocky) and said there were waits on models etc … should I even try to get something here or order from a diff dealer. I’m in Jacksonville if that helps any…
The core stuff people want is SUVs.
The models with the highest demand again in 2022 were the brand’s SUVs: the Porsche Cayenne was delivered a total of 95,604 times. The Macan followed in second place with 86,724 units delivered. With 40,410 deliveries (+5 per cent) the Porsche 911 remains very popular as well. The sports saloon Panamera was delivered to 34,142 customers (+13 per cent).
