I put a demand order in for a GT4 in early July of 2021 and today I started getting Porsche emails about my order. About an hour afterward my SA called me to tell me that I received an allocation! This is my first Porsche and I feel extremely lucky to be paying MSRP after everything I have seen on here. Allocation freezes 4/1 with delivery in late June. Living in WI, this leaves just enough time to enjoy it this summer.

Congrats. Lucky you. Welcome to the obsession. MSRP makes me very jealous. What an awesome deal. I just couldn't wait that long. And paid the price for the impatience.

Thanks all! I had basically given up and was shocked to see those emails. I got the allocation from a smaller dealer so if you're on a list then there is still hope.

Congrats indeed! For now (I'm moving in May) I'm south of you, not far from the WI border (about 20 minutes due south of Lake Geneva.) Which dealer?

And... I'd say, I'm not sure how much faith I'd put in the delivery date. Not to rain on your parade - I'm in a similar boat, I ordered a 22 Macan GTS in January. With the Ukraine thing going on, and all Porsche production stopped, I absolutely do NOT believe my delivery date of July is anywhere near accurate, since my order only went V200 5 days ago.

I'm just happy to get one. If it comes later, so be it.

This gives me some hope my November 2021 GT4 order will be built before the end of 2022.

If anyone's curious here's some data I gathered since I'm currently in the market for a Spyder:

Used 718 Spyders: Dealers purchasing them at MSRP-10k depending on the spec(10k+ would be PTS/PCCB's/extremely low miles/etc. The 140k MSRP Miami Blue 6mt with buckets/PCCB's/low miles/etc in San Diego was purchased for 145k by the dealer from the owner. Few other owners told me what offers they have received relative to MSRP which is MSRP-10k). Those Spyders asking 20k+ above MSRP are now sitting for months at a time with no bites, even some at 15k above MSRP are sitting for months if they don't have a desirable spec(they have sofa's/steel brakes/low msrp/etc).

New Allocations: A few configurable allocations with a June build/Sept delivery exist at 20k over MSRP. Dealers offering Spyders at MSRP have huge lists and SoCal dealers who are asking 15k above MSRP have a "tiny" list that you can get put at the top for about 15k over when an allocation comes in.

I'm so confused. Are you offering real data in a speculation thread? ;-)

Production-wise, are there more Spyders or GT4's out there?

this is is just wrong, a bloated build of a 145k sticker gt4 is much MUCH less likely to go for say 20k over sticker (165k) with 3k miles then a bone stock 2021 101k sticker for 121k.

your just wrong here, options unfortunately aren’t worth near what you pay on the secondary market.

I’ve sold a few gt3’s/rs and options outside color and color alone were almost worthless.
