Guess I don't know what your asking? I sold my 2020 GT 500 if that's what you mean. Waiting on my 392 Wrangler. Thanks for the reply.

Nah.. plenty of ppl with money here.

Brains? Nope. Evidenced by the ones who think ecoboost v6s are cool.
That’s odd to say in a 992 Turbo post that runs a twin turbo 6 cyl.

Are you stating the 992 Turbo S is not cool?

First it’s none of our business.
Second there’s a big difference between making payments and being able to drop a 1/4 million without worry of depreciation.
Third if your worried about the right choice in what to do with funds, I say don’t. Get the 991.2 GT3 and or the Scuderia instead.

Also, the 18/19 turbo GTS at near $100k with tune can give you a similar thrill at half the price! 18:45 of this video. But of course you can’t tell people you can afford a $250k vehicle.

I think a 992 turbo s is badass but I would personally rather have a gt3 and scud. I don't worry about depreciation and have funds so to each their own....

Thanks for that information. No matter a person's financial ability, 200k is a pile of money for any car. Some of my friends think 90k for a TRX or 80k for a 392 Wrangler is absolutely nuts. Guess it's a matter of perspective.

And? They are both $150k to $200k
I’m stating you failed at reading comprehension.

Care to give it another shot?

You stated that one has no brains if you think a twin turbo 6(which is the ecoboost) is cool...

I wish the 992 turbo S was $150-200k!
Perhaps a 991.2 in that price range.
Wealth shouldn’t be defined by what someone drives. I found in life that if you work hard and take risks, sometimes it pays off.
I’ve dabbled with American muscle for
The last 30 yrs of my life. This is a new world for me, and I’m excited to see what this car can really do!
I’ve already got mods on order.
What can I say !

No shit Sherlock. I currently own a gt3, targa, and thinking of adding a scud.....
I was just pointing out some vehicles in the $200k area that dont depreciate $50k+ a chunk. Which the turbos will.

Aside from that pure driving feel I’d still go GT3. However some love that instant feel of acceleration that the turbo provides.

Right. And what does a turbo v6 have to do with a new Turbo S?

Hard to believe you can be this dense at times.

As usual, your argument is based on false equivalence.

Dont forget about an 05-06 GT. Owning 997.2 RS, I would not keep it over the GT. Not a knock on the RS, but the GT is that good
If I could swing an F GT I would definitely sell my viper. Maybe when I'm in my 40s.

@gimme11s what is with the turbo v6 hate? I mean if you watched TX2K otherwise known as GTR show, they dominated the turbo v10 cars. As usual the v8 cars were a no show. I think fastest drag car was a supra, but the roll racing winners were a GTR. Not a fan of them at all, but huge respect. They do it with 4 less cylinders and most likely heavier than the TT huracans/R8s they're racing.

How did the Spanish dude with red GTR do? I was hoping to follow but have not been able to.

I dont hate turbo v6's. Not even close.

The original comment was tied to that bozo Kaz and his infatuation with telling everyone how v8s arent necessary because his gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ecoboost kicks all ass.

Sharpie ON D BIT jumps in and some how says i dont know what im talking about with the ecoboost v6 because Porsche FLAT 6 turbo cars are cool, so the ecoboost v6 must be cool (he's a real genius, this guy).

Summary: Kaz take dick in the ass, and ON D BIT drank one too many shirley temples spiked with O'douls.

The end.
