If your SA has your email use that same email to set up an account on Porsche .com If not send your SA an email then set up Porsche will send u the link a day or 2 after order was submitted

Who knows how much longer they will make this car anyway
yeah that’s my thought too. Really had my heart set on pts BRG but guess I’ll have to go with chalk or gentian blue here. Wrap is also a good idea but just have a weird mental block on it for some reason. Anyone ever seen a metallic wrap?

what do y’all think? Probably just take what I can get right? Unless anyone on here got a pts eligible allocation they weren’t planning on doing pts and wanted to trade Don’t think that’s how the pts schedule works but weirder things have probably happened
I did not think there is a such thing as a "PTS" allocation. From what I was told if there is time within a model year to paint to sample it could be done, and it seems there would be.

Agree with Bob, I believe you have your allocation and the dates could change based on when they are doing paint to sample. But you don't lose your allocation, your dates just change

interesting! I thought the allocation had to come in a window they were offering pts. So would I just tell the dealer I’m willing to hold the allocation and wait until they can do pts?

Yes, your allocation needs to fall within the window.

Suspect that small adjustments can be made with a engaged dealer

I'm guessing by the lack of updates in this thread that people have not been getting any more allocations since a bunch of them dropped last week? Making me feel more and more nervous that the allocation I'm supposed to get for a February build GTS4.0 isn't going to show up

Watch the video below, it’s not good news for us waiting for a GT4/Spyder allocation. While I don’t take the information provided by him as 100% accurate, I do think it is credible a directionally correct.

For whatever it’s worth, there’s nothing I can do but wait, and I’m not willing to buy a vehicle at this price level if I can not spec it myself.

Thanks for the video! The only good news there for me is that he's saying that the allocations that dropped only go through January, so hopefully the next drop of allocations will include mine.

If you aren’t number two at worst on a dealers allocation list, you have a slim chance of getting one anytime soon.

I was first on the waitlist with two different dealers for a CGTS. One dealer didn't receive any GTS/GT4 allocations. The other received one BGTS that they traded for my CGTS allocation. It's tough out there.

I'm first on the list so if they do get a February allocation it'll be mine. Key part of that last sentence is "if". I guess my next question would be, if they don't get a Feb allocation do I then become first on the list for whatever the next one is or am I totally out of luck?

Woof. Well congrats on the allocation but that definitely doesn't fill me with confidence lol.
