This article confirms my colour selection… I shall review the interior options
Porsche 911 Carrera S (992)
It seems as though Porsche is prioritising high-margin, low-volume models to protect the overall profitability of the business:

Sells in such tiny numbers (relatively) that even at €500k, with the huge development costs, I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t make a profit on these. More of a ‘halo’ product, I’d say...

I do not believe those GT models even give Porsche their development costs back. they contribute a lot to brand image but the profits come from the likes of the Macan and CayennePivot wrote: ↑Mon Aug 08, 2022 9:58 pm It seems as though Porsche is prioritising high-margin, low-volume models to protect the overall profitability of the business:

They’re talking about people who buy these cars (GT3 R) to race in events. As the cars are €511k plus VAT and options, not to mention running costs, I think it’s mostly a millionaires-only sport/hobby.

I’m shocked at the huge premiums being added to nearly new 992s, plus low mileage 991.2s on sites like Top 555.

I took screen shots of some cars for sale over a month ago, all are still for sale and still the same price.
