Whole family was sick with Rotavirus for a few days, so been off the grid. My 10 month old is okay though so I am happy.

Congrats and wise decision, you will forget about the 10K when you drive that car

I am aware of two within my own close circle of P-car homies that passed up allocations due to ADM

My situation isn’t ideal. Working with a broker friend and the updates are that my local dealer hasn’t gotten a single GT4/Spyder allocation for a year or so now. I’m beginning to think I need to find a slamming deal on an ADM if I want one. My dealer does MSRP, which is why I’m holding out. But last I heard I was 6/7 in line.

Haha, I feel guilty, like I lied to myself. But, it is all over with at this point, so I will forget about it and look forward to the car.

Thank you! We are much better. I couldn't believe how brutal that Rotavirus was. I was down over 10lbs in fluid loss at one point. The biggest challenge was keeping my son hydrated with Pedialyte; but we made it through!

Configurable allocation. It just came in! October delivery.

Haha, you are right about that. Current code looks like this: PPK3G456, but debating about adding the red tach, belts and also buckets (not leaning very much towards the buckets though).

Congrats on finally getting one. I'm jealous of the 10k ADM. I paid 20k ADM for mine. Originally October delivery but I changed and added a few things so now we are looking closer to end of November, early December.

Really cool looking build. The GT4 looks so mean in black. I'm in a similar situation like you. I'm not thrilled but not disappointed. However I feel that will all change when I see the car unveiled to me.

Actually wondering what to do, I hope the first allocation gets built. Probably does not make sense to hedge and double order in these circumstances... maybe should ask for discount from MSRP?
So I decided to not to be a pig and passed on that allocation. Whoever was next on the list will be happy.

I was contemplating buying another one to hedge my bets (in case something goes wrong with the current allocation I have... ship sinking or something...) but that's too crazy.

Maybe but it is an attractive kind of car-crazy, I would hate to try to get one of these things in about a year or worse not have gotten one if you could before the EV revolution overtakes the Cayman. It is a strange thought to me at least that if all goes according to Porsche's plan we will never see these cars in this configuration again, no next N/A improved version coming with the next model. Those days will be gone forever if you are a mid-engine ICE fan.

Funny...you are paying Porsche to paint your GT4's satin platinum rims black, and I am paying Porsche to paint my BGTS's black rims satin platinum. 😂
They make money every which way they turn

Not sure if this goes here… I have a Spyder in production (at MSRP 😎 ) but was looking around for a GT4 RS allocation. Found one at a dealer I had previously done business with with an ADM way out of my comfort zone, 100k but thought I’d put it up here in case anyone is interested. They said they had to pay $50k to their racing team for it? Anyway, if anyone is looking for pay out the *** for an RS I can point you in the right direction.

I’m super pumped here
