Mine was also scheduled end of May, car hits V260 on 02/06, though I received my VIN # couple days before the car hits V260.
No PCCB or cxx options.

Thats good to know… couple questions if you don’t mind me asking?

Is that for NA or just the US?

Which port are the cars held you are referring to(in NA)?

The reason I ask is we have a new 10% tax starting Sept 1 in Canada that I’m potentially scheduled to avoid depending on the production of the car. It would add approximately 25k depending on when the car can be purchased…., Thanks!

For the 2022 cars arriving does anyone know if we have a gas guzzler tax? If so, how much is that?

When we took delivery of our 2022 GT4 last year, it was the same thing. Canada (not sure whether it is Transport Canada or Environment and Climate Change Canada) piggy-backs off of the US EPA certification so, when it is certified in the US, we get certified here in Canada. Last year, Porsche Canada said "end September" for this to happen, but it happened a month earlier, 30 August for us. Maybe they always under-promise and over-deliver. Let's hope for your sake!

Has anyone heard about any new RS allocations? Seems like things have been quiet.

My guess is that dealers have already handed them out to their customers and have spec'ed the ones that they want to sell on the showroom floor for this batch.

LOL What dealer....because its pretty hard to believe you are a new customer who got both of those allocations with only a "little" over a year history.

Because you claim to have gotten two of the most sought after cars on the market with no markup and no history as a client. There are several members here that have purchased double digit P cars from a dealer and aren't able to get a GT4RS without a markup.

If true, great for you and other first time buyers in the market. But you should be able to understand the skepticism given the nature of the market for the last 12-18 months. Even in normal times, limited production cars like the GT3T and GT4RS weren't the easiest to obtain.

Although I have only been a customer since February of 2021 I have made a large number of purchases. Since I started at the dealer I have had three Taycans: a Turbo, 4S, and now a GTS. I have also purchased three 911s a base 911, Targa 4S and now have a Turbo S. I haven’t been a long term customer but I’ve done a lot of volume with the dealer. Also I trade all my vehicles back to the dealer.

Well that changes things! Tons of volume in a short period of time. If you don't mind me asking, why so many changes in such a small period of time? Also, are you planning on keeping either the GT4RS or GT3T for a long time period?
