I actually agree here, and Im normally the top down person re loving the sounds with no top...for this car, theres just something perfect about the 4RS as a coupe with those intakes right there. However, the Spyder will be super super cool, just different kind of car.

Congrats, hopefully the ADM was below the average that we keep hearing about.

Unfortunately, prolly about average. 75K. Hard to swallow as a retired Dealer Principal and still a Dealer Owner. { 2 low volume rural domestic stores}
Background gives me a perspective to evaluate the Dealership culture, and I am completely comfortable with a verbal agreement that the ADM is open for
re-negotiation if the market adjusts. Also comfortable with a verbal that I can walk with no hard feelings if I change my mind on the ADM.
Might have been able to shop around and get a lower ADM, but this store has my loyalty based on prior purchases;
21' 718 Cayman GTS discounted off MSRP.
21' 718 GT4 at MSRP
22' 992 GTS at MSRP

Just curious,
What was the required deposit by this dealer since the ADM was open to be negotiated.

Also, congratulations 👏

Even at 75 over, its completely worth it, and I rarely say that when it come to a big ADM car.

Sounds like me... My 812 GTS finally came in last week. My GT4 RS a few weeks ago.

Agreed, "worth it" will vary by Individual. In my case, I want the car and more importantly, I want to Spec it. Dealership got 2 early allocations which both have been delivered to owners.
In this go round of allocations, they got 3 for the model year. The list was a lot larger than 3, so i'm happy to have made the cut.

Naturally as a function of each individual, but from a driving experience, theres not much else that touches it for the road...tbh Im still blown away at how fun the 4rs was to drive. It'
s goldilocks.
