OK - hot girlfriend gets a call to drive the hot Lambo (with roof rack) to pick up her hot dude who's out windurfing (on a hydrofoil board). Girl drives Lambo aggressively down dirt access road, presumably to pick up said dude and put his board on the rack. OK so far.

Hot girl gets out of car with empty roof rack - then suddenly joins dude in the water on her very own sailboard that was not on the rack. :facepalm: :confused:
I was about to go buy a dirt squirting Lambo of my own, until they botched the ending. :stop:

That thing looks so rad. Heard on a podcast this morning that it was a big priority for Lambo to get their offroad Huracan to market for before this 911, and it is supposedly going to be available first. In my fantasy life I'll take the 911 for the ultimate bike transport, snow play toy. Strange times indeed.

Would be an amazing car for getting to the trailhead for sure!
 
Reserved a mid level econo box for my business trip to San Francisco. Hertz ( not @herzalot ) upgraded me to a Audi A7 with S trim for the same price. I asked if it was a mistake and nope.... Nice car for sure. Way better then the Nissan I was expecting. what this says is I'm renting way too many cars..haha..
I like this A7, could drive this as a daily driver.....

Old man story coming...

Back when I was a kid in Colorado, we (occasionally) crawled up and down I-70 - like everyone else - headed up to and back from the ski areas. I recall seeing the occasional 911 4s with ski rack and appropriate tires heading up to the slopes with a couple of pairs of skis. I thought to myself, "...that's really cool. I could see myself doing that..." Of course, I was 12, so I wasn't quite able to act on that. Little did I know, SUVs would become a thing by the time I had the income to buy my own ski vehicle.

I wonder if they'll get that price. We also marked up RS6s (and all RS cars), but weren't ever at $50K. Hard to tell where the market is on these at the moment, as no one has really had them as we've switched over from MY22 to MY23. We've yet to see a '23, and there was a big internal announcement last week that there is a major shortage of sensors for the RS and S cars currently affecting production. Basically any orders on the wait list are cancelled, and approved orders are back logged. Audi is going to be sending Audi Sport cars as Pipeline Refill, which means they spec the cars how they want and award them to dealers as they see fit (based on what they've sold previously). Basically, you get what you get and you don't get upset. So demand in the luxury car market is cooling somewhat, but scarcity abounds again. Yesterday we got our allocation for the R8 GT that I posted a couple pages back. Probably the only one we'll get. I'm told it will be $100K over MSRP.

Sooo, how much is your dealership marking these up? If not $50k, then what?
