Default 2022 718 GTS ALLOCATION

First time posting on the 718 Forum...We sold our 2021 992 CS2...We were down to one vehicle ('21 Macan GTS) which is fine, but my wife noticed I was missing the two seater...Walked into our dealer Saturday and got lucky with a allocation for a 2022 GTS...Delivery in May

Sure there will be some changes, but this is our first Spec...PNAR44R5...Looking forward to the 4.0-liter naturally aspirated boxer 6. Only 127 days till delivery, but with todays environment who knows...

You have won the allocation lottery it seems. Nice spec, and congrats!

Congratulations! Have you driven one? I prefer mine over the 992 but then I’ve had several 911s. Why did you ditch the 911?

We had a Cayman S first...then a 991.2 CS2...then the 992 CS2...Loved all three, but when they decided to put the 4.0-liter naturally aspirated boxer 6 in the 718 GTS & GT4 we loved the idea. Top it off we made a few shackles on the 992.

Congrats! Amazing cars for sure. My Boxster GTS 4.0 should be delivered in April. Can't wait.

I've been back and forth with so many options and I've finally arrived at this one - PN7RG9B8. Feel free to check it out if you want. May give you some ideas.

Hey nice wheels! (of course I'm partial)....I ended up taking the GTS stickers and rear badging off after delivery just for stealth, and I noticed that the badging tends to attract and hold dirt/dust (just my experience)

Very Nice...Being a convertible...why did you not go with the Spyder?

Our Sales Manager called us Friday asking us to finalize our build...Going on Track Your Dream...we noticed the dates were all blank, so we are guessing everything may be moved up.

Final http://www.porsche-code.com/PN4SWQ51

On Delivery we are going to have the calipers done in Racing Yellow to match the interior. We were going with the PCCB, but not available for the GTS at this time...

My deposit went down jan 15, and dealer entered the order jan 10. Freeze date looks like March 2, and estimated delivery is May 19. I don't believe it will come that soon. Current config is chalk, blue top, GTS interior carmine red deviated stitching. mine's coming to el paso and i'm the 1st 2022 allocation for a gts 4.0. Think they only had 1 or 2 in 2021. What city is your delivery?

$123k+ for a GTS. Oof that's steep.

Yes, I guess you could say that, but we do not like Race-Tex (Alcantera) or what Porsche calls Satin Black accents on front & rear. We probably went overboard on the leather with deviated stitching, but things add up fast as we all know...Still $40,000. less than what our 992CS2 was...
