If they still need to start building the Speedster which looks to be essentially a GT product, can't they 3RS extend production alongside the 992? Haven't seen any 3RS allocation beyond 3/19, some saying that's it and some are saying perhaps small trickle will seep through. Seems like it would be a very short production timeframe for the 3RS since the 2RS and GT3 have been out a bit longer from my understanding.
Then again I've been offered 5-10 cars on the ground or in transit that buyer has backed out of so maybe they want to curtail supply and maintain the ADM status....

mine is here, with ADM...I may cancel it, or ask for reduced ADM
it doesn’t have FAL so no one will want it lol

One data point was zero ADM on a car in California when the original buyer backed out, but that is likely an outlier. Seems like 20-35 is what dealers are asking. Whether they're getting it I don't know.
If you're serious about not taking the car please PM me with build information.

Lowest ADM after many back and forth was $12.5k because I am a "special" customer...
You have to be ready to walk and not be desperate, and you may lose car...

I talked to the California dealer and could have bought it. It had to be bought bu Dec 31....and it was a 220K MSRP car.
Mine is 195K...so it is still less money to buy the car I ordered

Thought for sure I would need FAL but haven't ended up using it at all. I tried it a few times on speed bumps and driveways but then tried without it and was perfectly fine with front end down. Wish I'd skipped it and saved the money, weight, etc.

ADMs are around $30K on average from what I have seen.
Wife was busting me that I should have gotten MB
Actually called my dealer since they have an allocation available. My car was $220K msrp and I paid no ADM. Asked what they would give me on a trade if I ordered another but this time MB. They said likely $210K. My GR has 350 miles on it. Sheesh.
I said that my wife will just have to learn to like GR. LOL.

There were two zero ADM cars recently that I found. But someone grabbed 'em before I could. I was next on list if they backed out. But they didn't. After that, lowest I've found has been 15K on a car already built but I didn't like the specs. Then a few at 20K - 30K, which I won't do. Porsche Monterey just called me the other day. They have two 3RS available at $30K over @ like $240 MSRP. I declined.
Here in California, there is no trade in tax break. So you pay full sales tax regardless. Which means that a GT3RS with a $30K ADM is going to come in at $100,000 more than my GT3. And it's NOT worth $100,000 more. So I won't be paying an ADM. If I can't find one at sticker, so be it. I'm perfectly happy with my GT3

Weirdly enough dealers were asking 25-30 over for cars either in transit or on the ground/pre-owned with 1xx miles on the car, but I was able to find speccable allocations for 30 over and one even went to as low as 20 to get my business nearly unsolicited which I still declined

The .2 GT3 is an amazingly good car, and the .2 GT3RS is not a $100k better car, not even a $50k better car.
On most amateur hands, the performance difference among drivers is much higher than the GT3 vs. RS difference. Test results are out there showing what the .2 GT3RS on cup2-N2 does compared to the GT3.
At this time, if I had the option (meaning not having to beg, wait, pay up, etc.) to buy a GT car, it would be a 991.2 GT3 Touring with manual transmission, and not my .2 GT3 RS. For a 2nd GT car, then a 991 GT2 RS or a Cayman GT4. 3rd GT car, the one not chosen as 2nd. That’s it, no GT3RS for me on this ideal scenario.
A manual transmission .2 GT3 is heaven, and they are likely to have better resale in Touring form than a .2 GT3RS
