As for the car, I THINK it is painted by now...? Three days of production...

Porsche Pete's Boxster Board - I was Paulie Walnuts there, but couldn't get that at the 986 Forum so I switched to PauE.

My god man you have to watch it! I’m surprised you understood the reference without having seen it.

You are not lying about that. Sopranos, The Wire & DARK are probably my three favorite shows. The Americans is about as good as it gets for cable TV as well.

You missed my point. It wasn't the number of vehicles lost. It was the priority. PAG made it clear that replacing the lost vehicles from Felicity Ace would take precedence over build spots for others. Thus, if we knew those replacements are not expected to be done until XX/XX date, then others would know soon after that would follow their builds given whatever can be managed in light of supply chain/war disruptions.

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.
Would you mind PMing me the dealers you talked to in SoCal? Those numbers sound significantly better than the 25-30k ADM I've been quoted by several dealers I've talked to.

Question MSRP GTS - Premier Porsche Dealership?

I'm looking to buy a new GTS and I have found a few dealerships with upcoming allocations but they are asking for a ADM of 20k. Personally that is a little steep for me and I don't know if I can justify it. I read on here that Porsche Premier Dealerships are not allowed to charge ADM. Are there any of these dealerships in California? Is it possible to get a GTS in California with no ADM? I am willing to wait a year, as long as there is no ADM. Any recommended dealerships?

Buy jewellery, houseware….and build up your profile. Are you picky with what you want? If you are, waiting to be offered a specific bag from the store can take a very long time. I have done this journey with my wife. I have heard people lining up outside the Paris store to get a bag. Not sure if Birkin is possible with this method. I also think buying other bags doesn’t count too much towards getting a Birkin either. Unless maybe if you spring for exotic leather.

Or you have to suck it up and pay extra to a re-seller.

The reality is you have to pay to play.

Some info here if you are not already aware of this site. A purse equivalent of RL.

No different than buying a Macan to try to get a sport car allocation. Or pay ADM.

GL with the hunt.
