"Old" means everyone else are (is?) "kids" (in other words, no disrespect intended)

Sorry didn't mean for it to come across like that. No disrespect taken. At my age I enjoy being called a kid. Honestly it's probably why all of us are in this forum and want an SRS. We refuse to go quietly into the night!

911 ST gets a manual (GT3 RS with no wing is my understanding). I wonder if this launches first.

Imho... SRS first... FOS for public debut.

I bet ST at RR7. They will want something special for RR7... and the ST fits that bill.

According to unotaz, RS will go first (posted in another thread)

992 GT3RS (incoming) - Senna level of downforce with only 60% of the power? I have a Senna LM so...
992 Sport Classic (incoming) - Will it be hardcore enough for my liking? Unless it's like my 911R, it probably won't make the cut
718 GT4RS (in my garage) - Great car, but my old ears can only take so much after 200 miles on one go
Dakar (incoming) - I feel this will be the black horse and become a favorite in my household
911 ST (will be announced later this year) - if it drives anything like the 911R, it will be a winner!
RS Spyder (will be announced next) - I feel this is going to be my kind of car, that is, until the 718R gets announced the following year

Am I the only one hearing that the SRS will not be coming to North America?

California. Has your dealer confirmed they'll be getting allocations?

It is my understanding that there can be no allocations, confirmed or otherwise for a model that has yet to be officially announced...

Thanks for adding your location, it really helps for perspective!

Who are you hearing that from? Because that will determine the legitimacy of your info. If it's your dealer, count that info as void. As they have as little info as we do, if not less. Hard to believe that the SRS will not be available in the largest Spyder market for Porsche.
