    Brand New GT3 in Southern CA for sale

    Gents;

    I looked at 2 brand new GT3's this weekend with $25000 mark up. However I found an indepnedent dealer(Allen Motors) that has sold two and has one more black on black coming on June 18th for $124K including a $10K mark up. I was going to buy it but I just ended up buying a 997TT. The clutch on the Gt3 is a bit too stiff for me. If interested in the GT3 please contact Lori @ 805-496-3370 or lfandjd@aol.com at Allen Motors in Thousand Oaks, CA. I am sure some of you would love this car.

    I just phoned on this car it is 14k over MSRP.

    Re: Brand New GT3 in Southern CA for sale

    They told me $11K. Still better than $25K over. You are looking at $124 VS. $155

    Re: Brand New GT3 in Southern CA for sale

    Did you test drive the 997TT? The clutch is very soft, compared to the 997. I had a hard time adjusting to that.

    10-4 it takes some time getting used to the TT clutch.

    What's the problem with a light (not soft) clutch? Light clutches provide far more finesse, I find. If a clutch is heavy there is far less finesse... you are fighting the weight all while feathering it in takeoffs, parking maneuvers, etc.

    As for the price they stated today that they wanted $124,000 firm with a MSRP $109,650 please do the math.

    I did not ask you to buy the car I only repeated what they told me. And I only shared the info with the people on the forum in case they are interested. You don't have to be rude.

    Re: Brand New GT3 in Southern CA for sale

    What's an "independent dealer"? How does he differ, if at all, from a PCNA licensed dealer?

    Re: Brand New GT3 in Southern CA for sale

    Sorry edz61, I didn't mean to be rude. As for the independent dealer, that is a state licensed dealer (without a franchise to a particular maker, like Porsche) They typically buy cars from authorized dealers and resell them at a marked up price for their profit. It's kinda like a car broker that has a dealers license.

    There's nothing wrong. It's just that when I drove my 997S to the dealership to testdrive the 997TT, I had to get use to it. There was a big difference between the effort of the two clutches. So a big part of testdrive was just getting use to it. I was afraid of releasing the clutch too soon. That didn't stop me from flooring the throttle at the light.
