Not defending adm, just explaining the reason for them.

I don't complain about adm because I understand why the exist. It's my choice to buy elsewhere.

I like the black. Although I would have loved the gold trim scheme like the M5CS has, and similar color options as well.

The red is too much. As will the msrp and adjustment.

Considering this is the "racey" G8x, I'm wondering if the G80 CS will have an M5CS-like theme. Would be cool.

But can you actually walk in Porsche dealer and buy a GT3 ?

I know a lot of ppl who would buy one tomorrow at MSRP but they just can't..
I agree! Even us lucky ones who are getting the CSL at MSRP can't just walk in to any dealership can't get one. Either you have a long standing relationship or willing to pay ADM. Cars have become like watches. Everyone wants a Rolex sport model but none to be had unless you have prior relationship. Everyone's holy grail is a Patek but almost impossible to get unless willing to pay a large premium.

I would love to own one but the rear reminds me of a 90s Cavalier. I don't know why. Not hating by any means so don't take it as such

That's a comically ugly car. The M4's design is such a mess. Soft lines conflicting with hard angles all over the place. Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, they paint red lipstick on it.

Congrats.

In the year 2022, the delta between the average price of a CSL and GT3 is going to be much more than $1K.

It is here in Canada and I believe customers in the US who have a solid purchase history and relationship with their dealer also are able to avoid premiums.

This is aimed at billionaire industrialist playboys with an interest in fighting crime. That's why not everything on this forum will like it.

I think it's rather cool. I also quite like this cravat.

Didn't know there were laws. I know of a Mercedes dealership who did it on G Wagons, S Class' and certain AMG models. Mercedes found out and the dealership got fined. I think they also got penalized as well with receiving less allocations with certain models.
