Everything is relative. To some folks a $15k ADM is nothing.
If you have the money, the price outweighs having to wait months/years for many people...or the aggravation and time spent playing games. Getting the hot cars (watches etc.) at MSRP usually means a strong purchase history, which is just another form of ADM in the end.

I know plenty of people with the "means", including those with billions not millions, that have no problem paying ADM. Now, many of them don't pay ADM because they are already VIP and have spent hundreds of thousands/millions on cars at their dealer (substitute in watches, same game) so no they don't pay a markup but they've already paid it with their buying history.

Well, the economy has been tanking for months. It hasn’t happened yet. My Porsche dealership lied their asses off to me and continue to do so. I’ve called all around the country for retail price on a turbo S. I finally gave up and ordered an M5. I still might buy another turbo S if your prediction comes true. However, I’m really hoping the economy rebounds one day and if that’s the case, I don’t see how things will get better with Porsche.

The only car I have personally paid MSRP for was the Tesla and it's also only one of like 2-3 cars that I've ever bought new. I've been looking for a fun car after selling my mustang and I feel prices on many cars are definitely coming down, but I also feel a lot of dealers have just stuck their head in the sand and are ignoring the market and continue to list cars for exaggerated prices. |

![]() How much money does the average person have in the market? Google is all over anything from 40k to 200k. Let's say it's 100k. Even if the market doubled that's 200k... personally if I woke up with an extra 100k in the bank tomorrow I'm still not going out and paying over MSRP for a car or paying 700k for a house that was 300k 3 years ago. I'm guessing there's other people making a lot of money some other way off this whole shit. Maybe it's crypto scams or ppp loan scams or something... still seems like it would have to be a lot of people to have such an effect on the market. I feel left out. ![]() |

Well, when you have a massive dump of free/cheap money into the economy, this is one of the side effects. Along with what was going on with the labor market and the advent of 72 and 84 month car loans.
I've never paid MSRP for any of the vehicles I've purchased to include my recent purchase of my 2022 BMW S1000RR. I was willing to go MSRP on the RR for personal reasons outside of being financially prudent. But MSRP was the line I wouldn't cross. I hated that my mom had to pay MSRP for her 2022 Nissan Rogue Sport. But we had no choice as she NEEDED a car and not wanted one to YOLO it up. Her Jeep Liberty Sport had a catastrophic engine failure. And we only got this car at sticker because I had connections otherwise we were staring at a $3k mark up. |

Porsches have become snob cars, they command too much money even in the used car market. BMW gives you 9/10ths the driving experience, are more practical, more reliable and easier to work on.
Case in point comparisons: Cayman vs M2 M5 vs Panamera X3M vs their small SUV whatever it’s called again |

What makes them “snob cars” exactly? If anything, Porsche has done more to please their enthusiast customers than any other brand and it’s not particularly close. |
