911 GT3 RS crazy price or not???

What is everyone making of the prices on this?

I am very much a noob in the Porsche world.

But my job puts me in touch with a lot of supercar owners.

I am just about to fund one of these for someone and couldn't believe what he was paying for it Vs a list of £150k. And he got a good deal!!!! A quick google shows the only one being sold straight out of OPC is Swindon for £295k!!!!!

Now I understand supply and demand. And also that you cannot really get these direct from OPC as first refusal was given to 918 drivers a year ago and they are simply making a turn on them hence the inflated price.

But what is so special about them?

My client believes they will be worth circa £400k in 3-4 years!

I'd be interested to know the high level structure of the deal, is it really possible to borrow money against the "premium" above list element on a modern car ??


As for below list in 18 months - I don't think so, not unless something catastrophic happens politically or economically......
Even a 25% correction would have them way above list.

Most sensible finance companies will only finance to a max of list price. So the customer puts in the difference and takes the risk. The residual value is always sensible......
