ROTFLMAO. I buy enough PORSCHES year in and year out, so my dealer doesn't gouge me. No need to pay anyone ADM as long as that "relationship" is intact.

Wow your new avatar is almost like the new Speedster. I like it!

What does it mean? Looks like your new "Code of Arms."

Drive safe,

If the new Speedster they will launch resembles more like the concept pictures published, I like it and will get one. If it looks like the one published by carscoops, it does look like a GT3 Cab and will more than likely take a pass.

Car will look great. Just delete the ugly sticker package. Looks foolish. They should have hired those guys on the forum here to do the design. What are they 16yrs old?? They do some amazing designs for livery.

The Speedster humps will the the main show. In reality, it's a Touring cab with Speedster humps and differentiating cosmetics.

Open top guys will LOVE this car.

3) Sacrifice a small lamb and pray the planets align

Guess I will take option 1 and 2...

Had to kick the 458 Speciale out to the second garage when the Panamera Turbo S arrived.

This concept looks strange without the rear air intake grille/vents. I wonder if it'll have cooling issues. Is it the first 911 without them?

Told the dealer to take back the Merc, it's a big hunk of trash.

There's a big gap where the air intakes normally are but it's actually not visible from most angles. It's similar to a 991.1 GT3. It's most of the width of the car. Visible from photos from top.

The concept looks so much better! I am not sure about the silver and white paint, it it does look great.

I almost always buy black but this car might need to be silver or dark green.

^^ don’t see any fundamental differences other than cosmetics - paint, wheels, side mirrors, etc - and one is running top up vs top down; makes sense for test mile vs show car. suspect final version will have full top a la test mule, with some funky attachment similar to Boxster Spyder based on the camouflaged area.

See! My money is on an MSRP allocation your way then according to my official certified guide for a Speedster MSRP allocation You are obviously a great client for Porsche

A dealership I was inquiring about GT3 allocations had both in stock rotting away on the lot, I took one look at the sticker and said I'll go with a small ADM for my GT3 allocation instead...

Enjoy in good health

Haha- why thank you. The design on the Concept bothers both of us. Doesn't know whether it wants to be Salzburg or low key. Luckily that is an easy fix.
