Dude drive your car next to a Carrera GT one day... THAT's THE DIFFERENCE!

 

Often, the latest and the best is very expensive to develope. It is never worth the price you have to pay. That is, until someone else is willing to pay more and then there is a profit in it. For the people on this board that $ is no object, the CGT is for them. As for the rest of us, let's put this into perspective about cost and performance. Try this little trick, move the comma on the price and what happens to your gut: what if the cost of a C-GT was $44,000. I think we would all jump on that in a heartbeat. Yet for the guy behind the register at Lowe's, that 44,000 is way out of reach. So it is all relative. But what a gorgeous machine. My dealership (Paramount Porsche, Hickory, NC) still has an option on one of the builds, I think 06. Straight 50,000 and you're in for sticker. BTW, that early $6000 delivery charge on that car was when it was flown here, now that it swims, expect ~$1800 delivery charge.

 

"BTW, that early $6000 delivery charge on that car was when it was flown here, now that it swims, expect ~$1800 delivery charge."

it's like $15k for air and sea is like $2900 if memory serves.

 

It must be diff't for West Coasters. That is not what is going on in NC.

 

no, it's not a west coast thing. maybe NC is the only state that receives $1900 destination. here is a sticker (showing a $2900 destination) for a PA (east coast) delivered CGT:

CGT sold by PA dealer with $2900 destination charge

 

I'll f/u with the CGT that comes to Hickory this spring and put that window sticker on the board. Funny thing is, that first one is for the owner of the dealership and I'll bet he doesn't pay any destination charge. Actually, he will probably make $ on the deal somehow?!

 

I would jump on one if I could get one at List and have it this Spring.

I am in NY. Any thoughts/Leads?
