if you can afford it then it's a no-brainer. But if you'd be spreading yourself thin then...sell the turbo and get it, still a no-brainer lol Good Luck on the sale of the TT!

I bought three cars from my dealer and all I got was a license plate holder. Gotta love this economy!

I think we probably purchased from the same dealer (Niello).

Still have not made my decision. I have the money, although I am not super-rich like Bernie Madoff.

As someone said on this forum, I already have 2 great cars.

It is my belief that the price of the GT2 is going to drop fast and far, it amuses me to still see dealers and others advertising these cars over $225K.

BTW - the car I am looking at is a special color, and has all of the options.

At $150k, you are 6 months ahead of the depreciation curve. Not a bad headstart.

There are many great deals on great cars such as 7GT2/RS, F430, LP560 etc. But the problem is that most can't sell their cars to get them. Similar to the housing market.
By this time next year the 7GT2 will be under $130K.

Let me guess, someone put a LARGE deposit on this special order GT2 but walked away for whatever reason, hence the dealer is willing and able to sell it for significantly less?

I would do the deal if you can fetch "reasonable" value on your TT, as the GT2 does hold value better. GL w/your decision.
