I believe my SA may have another 4RS allocation available for $100k ADM…June production, MY22. Not eligible for PCCBs or PTS. Trade off is the early timing. It’ll probably be sold soon, as once press embargos are lifted, we typically see more people seeking these types of cars because of glowing reviews.

It’s strong ADM, but I thought I’d share it in case anyone on here is still looking for one. It never hurts to ask. Nothing in it for me, I’d just connect you directly with the awesome SA. You’re welcome to PM me.

Haha! We all need to remember that SA’s typically aren’t the ones who set these prices, it’s usually the GSMs/GMs/Dealer Principals.

And as they say — don’t kill the messenger.

THIS! ^^^ The SA is given the script he/she has to follow, for better or worse. And at my dealership at least, the SA see’s NONE of the ADM charged. Pure profit to the dealership. Sucks for them, IMO.

you know the SA doesn’t set or keep the ADM, right?

I'm with Thuggo on this one... To be an 'awesome' SA, you have to work with a decent dealership. $100K ADM is not awesome by any stretch, not even decent.

IMHO of course...

Yup. Sorry but the SA is your rep to the Dealer it sucks for them but they are the ones who get the feedback and ire of having to deal with this BS.

The answer to that is, "it depends". Our GT4 was produced just after mid-June last year and was a 2022 model year. Just before that, i.e. earlier in June, they were 2021 model years. Who knows what algorithm they're following this year!

Might be true for Dodge where there is a dealer every 3 blocks but a lot of regions have one Porsche dealer. Maybe he really wants to sell Porsches but there is only one dealer within 300km to work for?

Yeah, I’m against holding the SA responsible for ADM in any way, really. You are indeed shooting the messenger.

...there is a huge gap between holding a SA "responsible" for ADM and saying he is "awesome". IMHO he can't be "awesome" unless it's the whole package, but that doesn't mean he is responsible for the ADM.

Putting way too much energy into semantics, but perhaps "A good SA at a questionable dealership"?

I think we're all reading too deep into this...it's really not that big of a deal! The market is crazy, and it just kinda is what it is.

This SA would sell you something like a Turbo S, or even GT3 / 4RS, at sticker if you're a good, local client who has bought multiple cars from them or are patient enough....things sometimes get tricky, like with this allocation, when it comes to being a bonus allocation or an allocation sourced from another dealer and there's ADM to compensate (dealers are paying ADM too to get more slots these days -- happens more than you may think).

But again, it's really not that deep, and all opinions are respected -- but maybe it's best we keep this thread focused on allocation news, availability, and timing to best serve the community. I stand by this SA being the best I've ever worked with! I judge that by customer service, communication, and attention to detail.

In regards to MY switchover, I think that'll happen with build dates of late-August or early-September, but we're all waiting to hear about that.

I've personally been told 100k ADM at a few places; even 125K
