Ah, the shocking ways of the 2017 Porsche 911 R speculation market - here we are, bringing you another example of such a three-pedal Neunelfer that's being offered for a ridiculously ridiculous price.
The three-pedal delight showed up on a Facebook group dedicated to helping Zuffenhausen machines trade hands, with the 911 R being offered for a whopping $750,000.
The 500 hp coupe is waiting for a new owner in Florida, with the photos in the gallery to your right allow you to get a complete view of the White machine. And while we could say that the lack of top stripes makes this a non-polarising example of the 911 R, thus facilitating the sale, the pricing bump doesn't exactly help with the move.
And to put that into perspective, we'll remind you that the 2017 Porsche 911 R came with an MSRP of $184,900. The German automaker offered those who had purchased a 918 Spyder the possibility to grab one of these Rs.
And while the company has a VIP program, which is supposedly there to monitor the life of limited editions such as the one we have here and prevent cash-bomb flipping moves, it seems nothing can stop the speculators.
Heck, the example we have here is shamelessly more expensive than the one we recently talked about - that clutch special showed up at a Monaco dealer and had already been sold for $550,000.
So yes, it's entirely safe to state that, nowadays, one of the 991 units of the 911 R can trade hands for Porsche Carrera GT money. Here's to hoping that the next generation of the Neunelfer, which is expected to land in 2018 (here are the lastest spyshots), will continue to offer nautrally-aspirated engines and manual transmissions for the GT3 and the GT3 RS, so we can all avoid financial abominations such as this one.
And speaking of the two Zuffenhausen delights, here's a comparo involving the 2017 911 R and the Carrera GT together.
