One of the biggest problems Porsche have at the moment that wasn't there at the launch of the current GT4 is McLaren. Maccas are properly disruptive. A GT4 at 80 to 90k or 570 at 100k? You'd be a bit daft to buy the Porsche no? That's the single biggest factor I think for GT4 and GT3 prices particularly the RS which has seen stunning drops from the heights of £250k!
McLaren are tempting I admit until you factor in any McLaren worth £x today will invariably worth £x minus 10% tomorrow. Major depreciation is a huge turn off.
Not so GT Porsches.
This along with other issues mainly to do with Mclaren warranty and poor dealer support are big minuses.
McLaren are an expensive proposition and they make no apologies for it.
You can buy one or ‘afford the monthlies’ but if you actually want to run it... you’ll need to be will to dig deep, never mind the fully loaded cost of depreciation.
Whilst they are great cars...they struggle @ volume and price point like Porsche... so they are not for anyone that is watching the pounds.
Luxury brand for those with high true disposable income, not attainable aspiration like Porsche.

don't forget with OPC cars there is what £3000+ of warranty in with their stock so this needs to be factored in. Ashgoods GT4 was for sale privately for 2 months as well. Perfect storm really as Brexit is really starting to hurt our industry now plus new one on the horizon and of course the early cars are knocking on now so prices starting with a 6 is already here.

I have very little faith in being offered a new GT4 or Spyder, the wait is killing me lol.
Thoughts on Ceramic brakes?

The Ashgood one, what would the new price have been on that? I don't think that is an overs car.

I don’t think it’s far from list either.I have very little faith in being offered a new GT4 or Spyder, the wait is killing me lol.

PCCB was 5k, 918 was 3k, PTS was 1.5k..that puts you @£74.5k? on a £65k base...and the car has quite a few more options.

It's more like a £85k car , it's the best value by milesPCCB was 5k, 918 was 3k, PTS was 1.5k..that puts you @£74.5k? on a £65k base...and the car has quite a few more options.
Mine was £75k, had a free colour with steels, no chrono and no CS pack no DAB.
I am very shocked it's for sale, when people are buying £80k cars which listed at £73k still on this very forum the last month.

Is it defo CS?. ... I don’t see the cage and CS is not listed as an option.
It has the extinguisher but you can buy that separately.
Anyway You know what you need to do....Jay...

Yep, it’s s good value car.. I just listed 3 of the options and got to £74.5k.. so yeah could easily have been touching £80k and beyond once you tot up the full list.

D was referring to his RY one not being specced with CS. Ashgood one is not CS either. I guess the fire ex was fitted later for a trip to Spa (there was something a couple of years ago about Spa wanting cars to have fire ex fitted if going on track....turned out to be a load of cobblers though).Is it defo CS?. ...

Is there a way to see what the current wear rate is on the Ceramic's?
I would do one or two track days a year and rest is like 4K miles on the road maybe. Only concern is cost of discs will be alot to replace.
there is a set of measurements to be taken on the rotors iirc to determine what the wear level is at. I would do one or two track days a year and rest is like 4K miles on the road maybe. Only concern is cost of discs will be alot to replace.
Would be worth checking the VIN as is it likely subject to the Gearbox recall given the detailed registration date.
It has got a mix of tyres, front to rear. Pirelli P-Zero on the Front and what looks like MPS4S on the Rears... I'd be wanting those changed for new MPSC2 as part of the deal or some money off to fund the new rubber.

They said matching tyre, new fronts but good spot that they are not Cup2 which is what i would want. Also said the brakes are "fine". Just waiting on some service info.
The other one i have seen is:

Doesn't have carbon, PCCB, chrono, but otherwise seems a good spec. Thoughts?

If that Ashgood car is straight id snap that up quick! Bloody lovely car that.
It is very nice, but the deal needs to be right for me. My BGTS is still fun but I just fancy something else after 3 years, change for sake of change sake i think lol. But I do want more punch. JayK12 said:

Ref the other car... if you want a GT4 for how it goes, stops and steers - you don't need Carbon, PCCB or Chrono.
It has folding buckets - which many people like.
Out of the 2 - the Ashgood car is more bang for buck.

With OPC price might be a bit higher - but the car will come with Porsche spec, service and 2 Year Porsche warranty.... thats worth something.

I'll look at all the figures tonight and pop my offer into Ashgood tomorrow.
