Spoke to a SoCal dealer who had 4 highly optioned landed PTS cars available because all 4 customers happened to cancel their orders at the same time.

It might have to come down to picking from something like that - I just spoke with a So Cal dealer and was told that there are no more allocations on 4RS' until maybe later this year.

Don’t understand this.

Pretty sure that whether dealer spec’d or customer abandoned; when it arrives they will get “top dollar”.

Rumor is allocations in October such as the ST and Spyder RS which could also mean more 4RS allocations too.

Assuming the dealer's spec maxes out the MSRP and the customer spec doesn't, wouldn't the sale of the higher MSRP give the dealer "top dollar" IE: they make more on the sale on top of the fixed ADM?

Yeah, isn't amazing how all 4 of those customers all spec'ed high option PTS cars and they all cancelled their orders? What are the chances...

Had a store of mine offer me a 4RS allocation at 70k over MSRP today, as a data point.

Can you tell if this is from a new round of allocations (Sept/Oct) or from previous rounds?

I don't believe its a new round of allocations, but that's just my guess.

I know of a new 4RS available for 45k over. It's not PTS but if someone wants it PM me and I can send you the brokers info.

I would jump on 30 over for a black one with WP and PCCBs. Of course, others would as well I suspect. Nice of you to pass on the info.
