Also are dealers getting premiums over msrp or does it depend on the build / options?

Search this forum. There are a number of threads on this topic. Few cars left. Search auto trader and dealer inventory and start calling. Just know that many of those cars are already sold. Slim pickings at this point.

I'm not a dealer, but I managed to get two custom made for me at MSRP. If I were you, and one came up at a discount, then I would jump on it immediately no matter the build. That's just my opinion. Some dealers in some markets are moving them VERY quickly and thus they are taking up the slack of other slower selling regions just my two cents. GOOD LUCK and pictures of your purchase please.

Oh, yeah, I have to ask you what is with the GTS Panamera? Interested to know your comments.

Thanks for the input on the market guys.
OT..Panamera GTS is awesome..great engine.. I don't have to look at the rear end while driving. Doesn't turn me off either. Great riding car. Would keep it but plans change.

I love the look of the car (panamera) and the GTS was on my list but I thought the Spyder was just a little more "special". I see myself in a Panamera one day though.
Sorry I made it seem easy to get two custom made cars so I should mention I walked into the Dealer here in NYC the day the car was announced and I put my name down sight unseen based on the press release and having missed the GT4. A week later after seeing the car at the NYC car show where it premiered I put a deposit down and signed a contract.

About three weeks ago, I bought a well-optioned Spyder (no PCCB, no LBW) for 8% below MSRP out of Texas (tough economy). Other locations were also discounted, though local and CA dealers had limited discounts, if any. LBW's were limited and at/near MSRP.

Yes, this is all true, a lot of us followed him and others like you and it's been fun but the music is going to end soon, remember this was 3 weeks ago so like I said if you find one at a discount move quickly if you want one new!! I wish you success too. I don't want to sound like a dealer trying to move cars but I still think the car has not reached it's full desirability potential

Also as of two Weekends ago Manhattan Porsche had one Spyder: Rhodium with the Red interior. Pretty basic build. Don't know if it's still there? I worked with George Gobrial - whom I would recommend you to talk if you call there.

I think I know of a dealer with a Spyder still (black/black/red stitch with buckets). I almost bought it but found a GT4. PM me and I can check if it is still available
