GK: What's a realistic price for that car? Don't take this the wrong way, but people might warm up to your dealership if you gave some indications as to price on your website. There is no asking price for nearly every high-end car on your site. You don't even provide a price for a 2006 997S, which has a clear market value. I think people are put off by car dealers who intentionally undertake to not provide a starting price for negotiations to the public because it indicates that the dealer is likely to be unreasonable. Just sayin . . . But surely, you are not unreasonable when it comes to price, so you may find this to be constructive advice.

Really?
I think the stock 'star' wheels are hideous...
Even the new HGTE ones look better IMO

If it were up to me, I would likely list the prices on at least our older inventory, but I cannot argue with their 30+ years experience in the biz. We are very reasonable and flexible with all of our cars, but of course we have to make sure we can keep the lights on too.

I had posted a thread for the 997S where I posted the price, and since reduced the price: https://teamspeed.com/forums/997-996...-showroom.html

On the 599 we were asking $300k and have a deposit in house, I only posted the pics for MeanMachine to see the color combo.

It is very easy to find out any price on anything just PM me or call our dealership! Will take only a minute!

Thanks

2) I would have to put novitec rosso rear pained valence, and rims on that...

I am almost certain a 6sp was never offered with the 599. I'm afraid 6spds are going the way of the dinosaur.

Good.
