You're talking a price increase of 20% almost when you start with the 130k base of the 991 GT3 and back out the 4k for the pdk tranny. That's massive especially when you add in the significant increase in value of the dollar. If you are correct, Porsche will satisfy every last instance of demand to collect that margin.

Martin, no offense, but if you change your avatar back to the previous 'take my money' one I might throw up. You have to admit that was the longest hold out and fail on an RS at MSRP laid out in excruciating detail!
(Hope you can take a joke!)
This
See above...
Five pages of speculation and the car isn't even revealed yet!
FWIW, I have allocations at two dealers- first position (after 918 VIP) at one, and sixth but guaranteed MSRP at another. Neither is local. The first position one had an MSRP 'policy' but since sold to a mega dealer chain and they won't commit to MSRP. However, I have them in a headlock over my Macan GTS order that they bungled my PTS. Will see, but have a backup.
Maybe the car will be a dud- lower RPM only 15 more HP and PDK only. Be easy to get at MSRP or better then.
(Hope you can take a joke!)
If you know any California dealers that are making .2 allocations available at MSRP to non-VIP customers, please provide a list of their names here in this thread. I'll give them all a call on Monday and find out how long their list is and if they're taking deposits. I've already played dialing for dollars a bunch and got nothing but talk to the hand so far.

Another possibility is that they'll raise the MSRP materially and just move up the demand curve rather than increase supply much. I'm sure they have some Finance folks studying what happened the last time around and estimating the best supply/pricing equation for Porsche. I wouldn't be surprised if they just raise the base price $25k.

) and it will NOT be at a premium above MSRP. If it is, I will not buy.
I am confident it will be at MSRP.

I've asked bronson on the other thread to let us know the base price of the .1 GT3 in canadian dollars.
