Porsche clients did not like the quantity of Carrera GT’s that hit the road in 04-06. That’s why they limited the 918 production, and it’s part of the reason why they limit GT-car production.

These cars are built by guys in lab coats, and not only that, they really affect MPG numbers, which matters more and more in…

All rights reserved. Porsche is a private entity that can sell or not sell to whomever they please. If the market has enough of a problem with it, then it will affect them. They’d like enthusiasts to get to purchase and drive their cars, not speculators. Speculators leave enthusiasts in the lurch, and it hurts the car…

Too much supply reduces exclusivity, and also demand. Porsche charges for the cars what they feel they are worth. They don’t have to build to demand - they aren’t meant for everyone.

It drives like a damned dream, too.

Yes - we sit down, figure out what you want, and contact Exclusive, and we build it for you. We WILL give you a price of what you want ahead of time, and it might add a couple of days to the build, but sure, we can order this.

Put the piece away, man, they’re callin the cops.

Well, if they are still making them in 53 years (lol) they might...aww hell no.

Those wheels (from the 50th 911) are the finest wheels we’ve ever built or offered. So gorgeous.

Oh, yeah, we can’t spend all the commissions that we make from internet commentators that know exactly what a car company like Porsche SHOULD be doing. /s

Worst humans ever.

Best part is, they’re ALL CPO now - if they weren’t before, they now carry the 6/100, and if they were CPO before this nonsense, they now carry an 8/125. It’s great across the board.

THANK YOU.

As a fellow 996 owner/lover, I’d like to say that my ‘Kaylee’ would like to congratulate ‘Apollo 911' on a strong dyno pull.

Thanks!

Johnny Five!

This is my favorite shot that I captured in our shop of our local 918 owner’s ride. It has a factory matte black wrap covered in factory Martini livery, and I think it looks like a spaceship in this shot.

The Carrera GT was ultimately fitted with a no-stall feature to prevent all of these clutches from getting scorched. Essentially, the car is preventing the stall, and he’s right, you have to simply let the clutch all the way out. If you feather in any gas, it cancels the computer help, and you will stall, or burn.

Like mine? (2001 740i Sport - Imola Red over Black - 145K on clock)

The only way to hear the original (creepier) version is to find an original Michigan-pressed “I’ve Suffered A Head Injury” EP. They even pulled the original version in subsequent pressings of the disc.

As someone on the front line selling them, I can say that they hit that metric nearly all of the time. That said, if they don’t hit it once, clearly it’s not 100%, but I’d say that the quantity of ‘off-quality’ is so low, that the decimal point is way far to the left.

It’s really bonkers how serious they get about it.
