Yes! I'd bet that over 90% of Porsche's 911 'market' could care less about NA versus Turbo! And that just leaves a population of us here on Rennlist!!

This means more allocations are coming for more people (hopefully I am one of those lucky people, and if not, life goes on I'll get something else).
I enjoyed the irony, thank you.

I think the reasons these threads perpetuate themselves is everyone loves the idea of having something unique. It's highly likely that we are reaching the end of naturally aspirated high revving Manual car production.. in fact, outside of the gt3.2 I can't think of a single other in production today??

In cryptocurrency jargon... HODL!!!

Not to mention the highest screaming engine you can buy new on the market today. (is that correct?)

I got a call from my sales embassador on Monday this week and was told that my original MY2019 GT3 is no longer the case. They have confirmation from Porsche head office that NO 2019 models are being produced. I locked in my order and my GT3 and it is slated to arrive in Nov 2018. Further confirmation was that there will be no GT3RS for MY2019. only 2018 models are being produced. I was somewhat disappointed as originally I was told there would be a hand full of 2019's produced for Canada area. I could have gotten my car in April 2018 and now I am the last on the list and getting final allocation from the dealership.

I went to sign the paperwork for my car today and my sales rep confirmed no 2019 cars either and no more extra allocations.

I went by my dealer today and both his early-mid fall allocations that were '19's are now '18's. No date changes.
