Hey there - i'm thinking about a new cab. So is that a 3 month wait list for the cab?
I am trying to figure out what to expect when placing my initial "get in line" fee next month for a 911 Cab. I have two competing interests - one is to try and get delivery before my 30th birthday next December, and the second is to make sure I'm 100% happy with my current job, one year in, and receive the promotion I was essentially promised to receive in the Spring of '22 all before actually placing the order for the car.
So how long is it taking people getting in line to actually get their allocation? I would rathe wait to get the allocation in late April/May even if that means I don't get delivery until after my birthday.

Allocations cometh according to my SA in Texas. Says he will be making calls at some point during the first week of November. I have an order demand for a BGTS and I’m at the top of the list (according to him). Details sketchy, but what I took from it is that there will be a few. He said they will have allocations for November and then no more until next April.
If I don’t get an allocation next month I’m just going to bite the bullet and buy a spyder off the pre owned market. Not for $176K for Gods sake, but something nonetheless.

Either way, the point I'm making pertains to used cars. New cars have slowed to a trickle and I think dealers would probably rather try their luck with waiting until March than letting it go for MSRP now.
For used cars that are already on sale now, many of them have been on the market for months already. Letting those cars sit on the floor for another 5 or 6 months doesn't make as much sense. Doesn't seem like there are gonna be any more buyers willing to pay $20k over for a used Spyder or GT4 several months from now.
I don't think we'll get all the way back down to MSRP, but maybe closer to $5-10k over instead of the numbers we're seeing now.

My SA emailed me today to say he's hearing rumblings of allocations on 11/15. Wouldn't be the first time they expected something and ended up not hearing anything though.

^ That's likely accurate. Something is coming within next 2 weeks.
As you say, they can receive allocations but you may not get the call.

Porsche sends out allocations in bunches. So, on 11/15, they'll have, say, 50 (ha!) GT4 allocations that they'll distribute to dealers. Not sure anyone knows the exact formula, but exactly what dealers get one (or more) is based on the sales volume of the dealer, how long they've had demand orders, etc. So *some* should be coming. Will my dealer get one? Will yours? Who knows.

Step 1, officially announce GT4RS
Step 2, give out allocations for "regular" GT4

I'd also love an RS, but like you, I'm just a plebe, lol..

I doubt there is much horse trading between dealerships going on for allocations given that nothing is hard to sell right now.
