That's it....I need to be making more money 
. At least enough where $100k-$150k feels like $100. I just got a brand new 2005 GT2 (granted it's a few years old) but wth 0 driven miles since delivery for $60k under sticker, and there were only 5 sent to the US that year. Unless something has drastically changed, someone will be taking a bath on this. But then again, the same thing happened to the FORD GT's when they first came out. People were paying $250k at first, and I came in a year later and purchased a brand new one for almost $100k less which left me enough money to get my wife a beautiful E55 and me a Lotus Exige.

On a side note I was offered a new Ford GT for 15K under from a dealer friend. LOL, I passed. (well, I could not fit in the car) but still it would be horrible to have bought one at 250-300k

I was @ South Bay and they're offering sticker for the new M3. As someone mentioned before, those who pay over for the M3 aren't enthusiasts on these forums. This market definitely cannot support too much markup (if any) for a BMW

Yes. When I took delivery of my 996 GT2 at MSRP the FMV was $25k to 50K over MSRP.

I know of dealerships planning on selling for 100k-150K over for GT2's... They are going to be VERY limited (hell we are a big dealer and only getting 2!!). I think its insane and a shame tho 
I know my father would buy one in two seconds for MSRP...

the chances that he has the car are slim. He is not the greatest porsche salesman.
he does consignments and sometimes doesnt even contact the owner, until after he has a sucker....er I mean buyer.
