I’ve heard GT4 RS production will be about half of the GT3’s. That means thousands of cars for the North America over the next several years.

I wouldn’t pay much attention to who’s receiving the first round of allocations. Also, I think there will be a strong level of interest on PTS and possibly CXX options which I assume won’t be approved on many early cars (?).

I personally intend to hold out for a PTS/CXX slot.

The new store is quite a large store. Not sure if you've seen it. They also just opened a sister south store that's quite big too.

Yeah, 200 dealers or so in the US.
3 allocations each first half of 2022, 3 allocations 2nd half of 2022.
There is no visibility of 2023 allocations yet obviously so whoever said that wasnt lieing...
but did they say built ever, period? Or just what we know? Actually, what exactly did they say...?

It sounds like the Americans are being spun BS twisted truth's to jack up ADM's.
I don't hear any other forum members from other parts of the world suggesting GT4 RS production numbers are limited at a capped number,
only whats being allocated to dealers for 2022.

Same old crap that they won't build many cars blah blah blah blah. They'll build thousands of GT4RS worldwide and there will be at least 2,000+ cars in the US before they finish up. Why? BECAUSE PROFIT $$$$$$$

They’re already out of PCCB and chips for keys and Matrix lights on other models. Mag wheels will be in short supply in a matter of time and Covid + anti vaxxer retards are demonstrating on US/Canadian border and elsewhere clogging up supply chains. There will never be a normal production run at any car factory for the next few years and GT4RS’s most likely won’t be produced as a 2024MY. Legislators are pushing for banning such cars in Europe, and Porsche won’t make cars they can’t sell in Europe.

Because of this, he's not expecting any normal person on their lists to get one. They'll all go to the dealers friends. Maybe the next round of allocations will be different, but this is supposedly everything for Canada for the 2022 calendar year.
DM if you can.

Personally, I'm fine to wait until Spring next year. Some stuff incoming this year already. By then any kinks can be worked out.

Always fun to see all these numbers…no one ever knows including the dealerships. Only PAG will know once they finish themselves.

I've heard the 200 for Canada number too. I'm not getting my hopes up after hearing about the shadiness that goes on behind closed doors. I have some connections and know how the whole connections/vips/allocations game works when it comes to cars like this. I'm sure some dealers are definitely better than others about this.
I am the one that leaked the 200 car number.

Narrowing it down for the dealers, 5 in GTA. North Toronto is owned by Porsche Canada, so no funny business there. Pfaff has the biggest volume in all of Canada, they get the most allocations. Can safely check them off also. That leaves Downtown, Oakville and Markham. Markham is owned by Pfaff also so allocations can be shared. Leaving only Downtown and Oakville as the suspects.

You'd be surprised. I know my numbers even before the Canadian dealers. I even know which dealer who just got one taken away.

Always good to hear the voice of reason and truth. Believe most dealers as far as you can throw them. They will be thousands of GT4RS build for the US.

Don't name the dealer, but why did they have their allocation taken away? Too bad the US doesn't have any Porsche owned dealerships.
