In general yes, but weren’t the initial 992 GT3s in larger batches?

Dealers reporting all MY24s done. Allocations through the summer already handed out. Lots of chatter on this in the Spyder RS allocation thread.

Guess we’ll see…

Supposedly they've taken care of the big fish/those willing to pay large markups in the first round of allocations and know I won't flip the car/trade it back to them at MSRP so next round goes to me. Who knows if they're blowing smoke but that's what I'm being promised after sucking up and visiting them monthly lol.

Hopeful for more srs allocations! So far I'm up to about 100ish dealers emailed. Offered watch, warranty, right of first refusal agreement, and pfs finance. I am hopeful my gm will offer one to me, but I'm coming up with a serious (to me) backup plan.

Absolutely. I need to find out what the real issues / plans are for the headers & mid pipes with Jonny @ JCR, but I am planning on full titanium. I have the full system from JCR for my 22 Spyder, and the sound is glorious. If the full system isn't release by JCR by June, then I'll do the Akra - JCR combo.

As for the topic of this thread, I don't see any changes to the production schedule for my SRS. It was 5/6 delivery when I received the allocation, and still no changes.



Side question: I'm taking the European delivery on the SRS. For those who done this, my 'Expected Date' is 5/6. Correct to assume this is the completion date, and not the US delivery date? If completion date, is it safe to assume that the European delivery experience will happen during that week, or a week after?

The Fabspeed exhaust that's on my GT4RS should fit the Spyder RS. Almost no drone, amazing GT3 cup car sound and you still retain the intake noise.

I would have considered Fabspeed, but for me, Titanium is important. Weight Savings + that unique Titanium / SuperCar tone. I wish they had titanium versions, and I might just give it a go.

You still need to schedule your delivery day still with Joey at PNCA. Once you have a date it should look like this:

That does sound nice. Imagine when everyone is driving around in EVs. I really hope Porsche comes through with the synthetic fuels.

Thank you. Is this for a US Porsche delivery exerience? I'm seeing 2 months of gap between completion and arrival at Porsche Center. I hope this isn't an example of the European delivery... Or.., did your completion date got pushed out for 2 months for some reason?

Hey let's transition this exhaust discussion over to the GT4 and Spyder RS Exhaust Discussion thread and reserve this for production and delivery...
