i think its pretty likely he will get an allocation. I placed an order for a Boxster GTS in Jan and received an allocation in March. While they are starting to be scarce, since he is next in line, as long as his dealership isnt shady with how they do their waitlist, i see him getting an allocation in the next quarter. The car is supposed to be produced for at least another year so its not like allocations are all dried up. And i think a lot of people like you might be thinking that way which in a way is allowing the rest of us to get allocations. There are at least 4 other people who have just received allocations along side me for July delivery.

You are of course entirely entitled to your opinion, I for one agree that these cars have gotten very expensive, paying 115k for a Boxster, but if you feel this way and clearly think negatively of the brand, what are you still doing on the forums?

My SA mentioned mid April for next allocation list. He is optimistic that I will get an allocation. It’s a fairly high volume dealership so hopefully it will happen.

Personally for me Porsche have been the best bang for the buck car i've bought. But thats because Porsche makes one of the few cars that are actually desirable to me, and then throw in the fact that a lot of them tend to hold their value quite well over the years, well now you have a package that really sells itself.
I am curious what happened to you to make you seem so angry at Porsche, the last time i saw you on this forum i remember you being excited for your incoming car, but that was also over a year ago.

i mean thats purely subjective and your opinion. You seem to have had a very bad experience with yours which is probably making you think that way. I personally think BMWs are not worth the price anymore. I currently have a G82 M4C and it will probably be the last BMW i ever own even after being a long time BMW fan.

They are great cars but not worth north of 100K+ cars is my 2 cents. If they were in 80-90'K range i would have definitely got it.
Plus the bloated ego of Porsche owners pisses me off , i see lot of egoistic person in this forum which i dont see in other car forums, have owned lot of cars

none at all, just figure if you think so negatively about the brand/ car, why go to the forum and be negative on someone else's post who clearly is being hopeful that he will get one. just seems a little tasteless wouldn't you say?

To each his own , i was excited to own a Porsche but this whole process , waiting game and ADM made the cars very expensive and lost interest.

I think the ego thing i honestly see in a lot of other car forums ive been in, i think its mostly because there are just less Porsche owners compared to a lot of other more common/cheaper cars and so sometimes the few with the ego seem to stand out more. But i've met my fair share of ego in everything from the S2k forums to the Ford forums and BMW forums. I just feel like with a more common platform, those people tend to get drowned out easier.
But anyways, hope you enjoy that Z4, i had a Supra a few years ago that i absolutely loved. Fantastic car.

We are not kids that someone gets discouraged with someone's comment, i am just giving my 2 cents and it may not have been a positive feedback but that doesnt change anyone's equation.

To the OP: don't let people dissuade you from a Boxster GTS if it is within your realm of affordability. It is a wonderful car and it is unlikely we will see one like this again from Porsche. I have owned modern BMWs and they simply don't compare.
Perceived value of Porsche's sports cars is something every person has to judge for themselves. As for the rest i.e. arrogant owners, expensive maintenance etc. it won't matter in the least once you get behind the wheel and slip the car into gear. Sure there are troublemakers on this forum (as in every social media venue) but I have also been able to obtain very useful & helpful information. There are some very knowledgeable and helpful people here. I am on my 3rd Porsche and I still learn quite a bit from enthusiasts on Rennlist. It is a great resource.

There are egos on all the forums. I see ridiculous egos on the Ford Expedition forum I read so it's everywhere, just like any social media platform today.
