No. A 991.2 GTS or a 992 GTS.

More and more cars are available now. Should be pretty straightforward.

Yep, sales are definitely beginning to slow down. With that said, I have recently been seeing plenty of RNM on BaT.

Yeah I think the car gravy train is coming to a halt.

Eh. I think it's better to assume that it steadies out. The supply issue isn't going away any time soon.

Selfishly, as long as the speculatory "orders" fizzle out, that is good enough for me.

While supply issues are likely/certain to persist, there could be a softening in the demand side for premium sportscars with the market tanking.

Yes, I definitely agree that there's softening and probably will be more. I'm just saying that even in a shit market, when you have no supply, people will still pay up. This isn't the usual situation where car manufacturers max out supply and stuff the channels and then find themselves firesaling inventory because they're sitting on a year of production spilling out of dealers.
