It's quite surprising Porsche didn't restrict numbers of the 992.1 Dakar drastically so when overs went mental they could pump the numbers for the 992.2 Dakar-same as they did with the Sports Classic.
Or release it as a regular model, the 992.2 Carrera X (bit like when the 991R became the GT3 Touring).First Sea Lord said:

Is it me or are there just insane numbers of brand new Dakars for sale / being flipped? I thought there would have been more enthusiasm from owners to keep / use them. Nuts.
Attempted flipping. Would have a better chance of them selling if they didn't all come with the full bucket seats and roll cage.I was in Austria the other week and saw three non stickered Dakars in the mountains. Was good to see them being used properly.
Complete waste of time car, if I wanted to drive fast off-road with dialed in handling and power would buy the forgotten Macan Turbo with Performance Pack, take it to Litchfield and with the £160k saved would buy a Ferrari F12. This car is only good for Porsche Shareholders, a total folly car and the market will crucify its value over next 5 years.

You’ll probably right. Porsche have such a history of misjudging the market and making cars that no one wants……notBobtherallyfan said:

Sure for the Gulf States, but in the UK, give me a break.. hey we got a lot of clients looking for a 911 for the UK pothole roads, and they want the Rothmans Colours on it as well, and £200k.. bus loads of them..politeperson said:
There appear to be 141 Dakars on the road in the UK according to How many Left.
That is quite rare in my opinion.
Not sure how accurate that is either.
If they are anything like Ferrari numbers they will be 25% under real numbers. UK get 9% allocation and they are making 2500, so imagine 220/225 cars, still pretty rare in uk compared to all the GT3 & Touring 992. Certainly a limited client base.That is quite rare in my opinion.
