Thanks! No, I received it a couple months ago. I had been on their list for a year and a half. It was an extra allocation given to the dealer, but was European Delivery only. Unfortunately ED has been cancelled through July so I’m taking delivery locally.

I’ve seen some 30k+ ADMs over the last year. I would be surprised if dealers are holding allocations in hopes of getting more than that. I’m sure there’s still demand, but I’d guess a number of people have dropped off with PCCBs and carbon buckets being unavailable on later MY23 allocations.

^^ah oh. I thought you just got the allocation.
A year and a half wait! Wow. I thought 5 month wait was long to get an allocation...

I should have called around more at the beginning. Stopped calling after covering the west coast and getting on some short lists (#2, 3, 4 in line). I had to learn the hard way that some lists are a little more fluid than others. I get it now, but as a first time buyer it was quite frustrating that it wasn't spelled out.
That was around the time ADMs were becoming more common. A California dealer actually offered me an allocation that was locking in a week, but it had a 10k ADM. I balked at that idea, and decided to wait for MSRP. What am I paying now...10k ADM. Life is funny sometimes.

10k ADM is not too bad... yes sometimes you need experience for perspective...
I didn't want to pay an ADM, but had I kept waiting for the MSRP deal I was promised, I would have still been waiting and probably eventually never getting one.

I'm at a 1 year deposit mark for GT4 and GTS for MSRP. Sadly I might be the ones who never get one.

Might start looking at ADM deals again. Last I looked they were 15k for GT4 (months ago).

Tired of sitting here with out a car.

Honestly if you do find one for 15k ADM you should take it. Mine was 20k ADM and from what ive seen, most are as well or higher due to the rumor that no more are being made.

Submitted my CXX desires last week - anxiously waiting for confirmation from PAG now. 3/28 lock, April build.

Keeping my fingers crossed it all goes through and I can pick it up in the motherland this summer!

I sat for over a year and only moved 1 or 2 spots on the list. The only way I was able to get an allocation was by doing Euro delivery. I also wasn't charged any ADM.

What'd you ask for? I'm surprised CXX is still an option if they've shut down PTS.

Fully customized seats, interior trim (dash, doors, center console), center armrest, door pulls, and stitching.

I’m glad CXX is still doable because I was bummed about being unable to do PTS. I had a hard time justifying a $15k paint option so in a way I’m glad as it let me do a more personalized build with a custom interior.

What are you doing with the trim? Are you changing seat leather color or just the fabric inserts? This all seems like it would be more than PTS.

Changing the whole thing. It’s more than PTS but money better spent in my delusional mind . After this lengthy journey, and getting to the point to be able to buy this amazing machine, I said screw it and do it justice by making it my dream build. Euro Delivery will also be a part of my honeymoon so this is much more than just a car purchase. Life’s short. I didn’t want to have regrets about this car if I held back on it.
