Default MY23 GT4/Spyder Changes

Taking a leaf from Ol mate @Adrift to waste some wait time, no sign of my car, no build slot even (contract executed Aug 21). Estimate was 9 months from my order date, yeh…… nah.

anyways, I’m thinking late this year or next, who knows, but wanted to get the goss/rumors might be for MY23 cars.
  • colours
  • options
  • new standard jnclusions
  • etc

any ideas or cleaning lady input?

Contract does not mean anything without the allocation slot. You should contact more then 1 dealer if you really are looking for a car. From what it looks like to me MY23 is not going to happen as the MY23 will be for the 4RS.

MY23 will happen according to a couple Porsche SA I’ve spoken to that previously said it would not happen. I would suspect price goes up a little bit as well

Rumors are going both ways. A lot of unknowns right now for MY23. A very large US dealer that gets a large % of GT car allocations has moved all GT4/Spyder waitlist to GTS4.0. Their exact words are that MY23 is not happening and if it does, allocations will be so few that they don't feel it's ethical to keep anyone on a list where they may never see a car.

Other dealers are taking deposits and making lists with no confirmed allocations (interest-free money right there) for 2023.

Of course, 2023 could still happen and be a full production run model year. Who knows. But if you want a GT4/Spyder, the answer is not to put your eggs in the 2023 MY allocation basket. There is a long list of buyers still waiting on their 2022 allocations, all sorts of unknowns in the world right now. There is a high probability that if 2023 does happen, a big % of those cars will be going to people who were on 2022 MY lists and got bumped.

Used car prices are up over 40% in the last 18 months. ADMs are now the norm even at dealers that had a policy of never charging an ADM. if there was ever a time for prices to go up a lot rather than a little, now would be that time.

Makes me wonder, if you have an allocation that’s pushed to 2023 or you have been waiting for an allocation that ends up being a ‘23, do you get hit with a price increase for the new MY. I assume so.

Over the course of 3 MYs, couple of paint changes and PDK, Spyder summer tires.

Be happy they release allocations, don’t expect any big changes.

Well except for the Spyder RS announcement…

In my experience, the answer is that you will pay the MSRP price (+ADM if applicable) of the MY you end up with. When you were placed on the waitlist really doesn't matter.

No one's waiting on a MY22 allocation. They're just waiting on an allocation for a GT4 or whatever MY it happens to be when they get it is what it happens to be.

CW22 is a common time frame for VAG to switch to MY23. This doesn't necessarily mean MY23 builds start then but it's when the factory systems switch over. So, with that said, either Porsche stops building cars mid this year or there will in fact be a MY23. What the mix will be is anyones guess.

He's in Australia, dealers allow you to spec a car and sign a contract with the purchase price on it. I assume he's received comm's from PCA that they'll build his car as soon as they are able to and the dealership will be in contact at the time. @AlpineR is that correct?

Some additional colours would be nice, i.e. slate grey not being just PTS and some increase in standard options. Who knows?
