Yeah I don't know, I was there since my engine shut down due to loss of oil pressure haha. Was just asking them about 992 GT3 allocations really

Qwikk

Looking for a 718 GT4 Allocation. Open to Location/Timing. About to call every dealership in north america and do recon. If anyone could save me a few of those phone calls it would be greatly appreciated. Willing to wait just trying to find a list with a good chance of securing one anytime in the next year or by end of production whichever is first. Thanks for any and all help.

Call Ali at Herb Chambers in Boston. Spoke with him yesterday and they have an open GT4 allocation. 10K ADM.

Every single person on this forum should call, take up lots of time with questions, then when they say $10k ADM, politely tell them how unacceptable that is and hang up.

I don’t really find it unacceptable in the current market conditions. If you don’t want it, move on.

So are you saying that when it is time to sell your own highly desired, pristine condition, and limited availability car, that you are fine with taking whatever Kelly Blue Book average trade-in or private party resale lists it for?
Pricing is whatever the market will bear for those able to pay the cost. If no one buys the car at their ADM they will eventually lower their price until it sells. I have little doubt it will find a buyer before it gets to MSRP - given that many will not want to want six months to a year - or maybe even never if they don't jump on it.

I hear ya, it just irks me. ADM's irk me. It's a new product, which has an MSRP. And to some extent, I understand that a dealership is struggling with limited supply. And I understand time is money, and depending on which side of the equation you have more of, you may be willing to pay an ADM. But I can't help but be irked.

Oh, and the used car market is totally different IMO, in part because no two used cars are the same.

No harm intended. I'll go back behind my curtain now. Carry on with the show. :-D

I was recently at the Austin dealership and was a bit surprised to find they only have three cars left on the new car showroom floor, an ice-blue Taycan and two Cayennes. I mentioned it to my SA and he said that the two Cayennes were actually loaners they had placed on the floor just so it didn't look so bare. He said that the current scarcity of cars was really hurting the dealership's bottom line. I can see why they might want to ask premiums for what they do have. I felt quite lucky to get mine at MSRP - something I don't think I've ever settled for before. But even that was only because I had previously bought two 911s from them and have a history of servicing them there as well.
The one pricing I really have a hard time wrapping my head around is the lightly used 2019 911 Speedster they have there - listed at $479k!

$479k for a lightly used speedster - unreal

That is terrifying, wrt the dearth of inventory.

This allocation is gone as of this morning. If anyone else has a lead on upcoming allocations, including ADM allocations please let me know. Thank you.

Try contacting Kasia at McKenna Porsche in SoCal; as I said earlier they had at least 2 Spyder allocations, but I did not ask about GT4s.

Qwikk

Thanks for the info.


For anyone looking they have 1 spyder allocation ready to go. Sounds like there will be a decent markup on it. No gt4 allocations.......

My SA just emailed me that they are "expecting several allocations at the end of this month" for FWIW.

What state? Country? Which model car?
