There should be a special kind of hell for speculators and flippers, so kudos to Porsche if they do this.

Great idea.

Can the Hell also be used for the Financial Speculators as well?

I did ask the OPC when I first read that and was told that there was no restriction to the number of GT3s that could be specified as Tourings. Overall GT3 numbers were still limited.

Even after this new speculator rought I still haven't had the call to say my place on the list has come up. :shock:

I don’t mind speculators, they make the cars even more desirable and I accept that some cars are only for the rich and famous.
Socialist ideas are good, but rarely well executed. Imagine the queue to hire/share a rare Porsche for a weekend. Who gets to ride it in a summer holiday period? Management [emoji38]

‘No cap on availability’ isn’t the same as ‘we’ll build as many as people will buy.’ ;)

I think they’re just referring to the fact that no definitive build number is decided upon (e.g. as they did with the 911R).

By the way, the US get a far more generous number of GT3s than the UK does. :roll:
