Do you know if euro delivery is possible?

I'm going to assume probably not something the dealer will want to deal with if they are rejecting "stripper" specs especially with the hoops dealers now have to go through for ED.

I'd be really curious as to why they would care about the configuration of the car. It makes no difference to them as far as I know.

What's the status of ED? Not available on my build locking next week unfortunately.

Weissach and PCCB’s is another 3k+ in profit for the dealer. The more loaded a car is the more they make off it on the options so they’d rather just wait for a more loaded build than accept a stripper. This is why in Canada even though it’s an MSRP country/dealer they force people to do PTS and high specs for all the first allocations.

It makes a substantial difference. They take a profit margin on the total build. More expensive build, more profit.

In my case GT4RS ADM may be mute. I have an offer on a 991.2 GT3RS with ~5000 miles at $215k. Buckets, steel brakes, LED headlights and Lizard stiching was a $202k MSRP car. Just need to hammer out a few details Saturday. 🙃

I suspect that here in Canada they have backed off on the "PTS and high specs" now. I was able to configure without Weissach and PTS for the GT4 RS that I took delivery of 5 weeks ago.

Nice. It's a better car. No shade on the 4RS but that is the top of the ladder in 991 Gens. Period.

PA dealer offered 4RS allocation about a month ago for 50K....told them "thank you, hard pass"
now that same allocation (non PTS/ED) is down to 20K. Still passing. Told them to call me when it's 0
doubt I'll hear from them again lol

love the car and really want one for the track, but I'm not a money idiot

Agree and when you get over $200k the 991.2 GT3RS is a no brainer over the GT4RS IMHO.

That's a great deal. Still open? Have a friend who might want that. Not interested as I'm keeping my gt4 but hoping to get a Spyder RS for similar markup

As fyi, was at dealer getting another car yesterday, they said at the moment, no PTS allocations for either gt3rs or gt4rs in the US. They said the past month, they have been told they may be going away all together and have already passed on that numerous clients love the program and would pay more, so they pushed up the food chain to just increase price vs remove it.

​​​​​​There may be July allocations, my contact said he expects an update this week as the July ones were supposed to be published by now.

I personally am waiting for a pts 2025, and will sell my existing 24 once able

There are a number of SRS available right now at MSRP, a dealer offered me a choice of 3 yesterday at MSRP that Porsche north america is trying to place. One is already done, 2 are finishing up. They are not strippers

Recommend calling your dealer contact.

One is vanadium grey at 219k, vin last 4 is 0648

As fyi, you won't get any allocation for new build if you are doing a stripper. Numerous dealers just aren't accepting those bc of folks calling and offerings to do 200k builds
