Sorry but to me it is butt ugly and grossly not worth the indecent price.

911’s look so much better with a solid roof rather than the carbuncles on the back.

Agree It's ridiculous money!
They also had a crayon 992 GT3 that looked fantastic.

Totally agree, I’ve never understood the premium speedsters seem to demand.

Rarity is the cause of the premium. Take a look at this recent Harry's garage video where for memory about £1m gets you a re-bodied £200k (?) Ferrari https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11z81hkvXlw

The demand for such vehicles does seem to be increasing, whether this is caused by the coming EV only sales rules only time will tell. However, I suspect the market may move to rare specialist EV's

Sadly too many people nowadays see these cars as investments, rather than as a fun means of transport. So many of these limited edition/hard to get models have crazily low mileage, as their owners are afraid to use them as intended, because they’re scared to reduce their value as an investment. :(
