Recently, there is a new line item on the BoS, 'performance package', not added by Porsche Canada but by the dealers, a few thousand dollars, ADM in another name.
Did you see this charge on your GT4 RS? Did you actually get 'something' for that additional cost?

You mean like the Porsche watch or extended warranty or service coverage?

I think there was a CBC Marketplace about that a little while ago. They can't force you to get extended warranty, PPF or any other stuff like that. Some lady took a Ford dealer to court and won the case.

It's not allowed but dealers will try and get away with it by saying things like "all cars we sell already have PPF applied to them" etc. The Ford in the video already had PPF but the case was still won against them.

Too bad buyers in the US can't take stealers to court over having to pay an ADM. haha

Fortunately nothing like that on my GT4RS. Porsche Victoria has been great to me.

I don’t like it any more than the next guy, but Is ADM any different than you as an individual buying a car for X and now a year later the market says it’s worth Y. Would you sell it for X?

Most who got the car at MSRP will benefit from the market price when it’s time to sell or trade in. Assuming demand stays high. Or should they only sell it for what they paid?

I think there is a reasonable amount to pay over for this car, if you want it now.

I think they will work with me a little on the price for a serious buyer. Confirmed that I can close the deal at 65k over MSRP total.

Unsure why you’d make such a remark.

Unlike most of the posts here, this actually is an allocation.

This is an allocation thread.

The RL sponsor you’re slamming has helped many here in the 4.0 sub forum w/positive reviews.

Please troll somewhere else.

I'm tight with my dealer contacts but I haven't been asking much about the potential for a M25. I'd have to ask a bunch of my guys and see what kind of feedback I get.

Ben, Thanks for helping us find allocations. Please ignore the idiots that provide no value to this forum.

If anyone is looking for allocations, I would highly recommend @bpeacock . He helped me find my CGTS allocation and has helped numerous members on this forum find their dream cars.
