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
That's the issue I've found is the cars bloated with options, plus adm are expensive

In my bubble I can't see a 240k car as any better than a 195k car

Ceramics are the only option more I would have paid for, but I was planning on ST rotor...no more iron brake car for me

I didn't ask for the build sheet. If I spec a GT3RS like I spec'd by GT3, it would come to $220K. And that's with full leather/alcantara, LED/PDLS, PCCB, FAL, extended tank, sound system, etc. So I don't know where the extra $20K was coming from. $240K + $30K ADM + tax and you're over $300,000. No thanks.

$220k? 240k isn’t even fully loaded. Mine has a 249 msrp and still doesn’t have every option, much less Mg wheels. I agree 300K usd seems like a lot to spend on one car but as I’m not a flipper and don’t plan on selling it anytime soon I spec’d it the way I wanted with all leather options and deviated stitching.

I think there is a small run in 2019 for parts of Europe.

$10k to just over $20k ADM's have been shared with me numerous times.

May of 19' for production is the latest Ive come across - Im not searching for one or wanting one at this point, but thought Id share a couple data points that have been made available to me.

If you know of a buildable allocation for $10k over I’m interested

Porsche of Monterey ruined my purchase of a 991.2 GT3. The current GM is abrasive and greedy. Could care less about customer satisfaction. I've since spoken to two others that had deposits there until the GM Aaron slammed the door on them too.
After purchasing two GT cars there and referring three friends who also purchased, I was still nothing more than another fool to them. Never again, regardless.

In the U. S. I know of a confirmed Apr build May delivery of a .2 3RS. I've heard the same rumor that likely no new round of allocations rather the one or two that'll dribble in to some dealers.

Yeah I got a bad vibe when I visited their showroom. I was in Monterey with my girlfriend to skydive. Took my GT3. Stopped in to see if they had any allocations and asked to speak with the GM. The saleswoman looked at me and my GF and kind of gave us the side eye and just said, "No, he's too busy. What's it about?" I said I'm looking for an allocation on a..." She interrupted and tried to give me the runaround. I had to fight to basically just say hi to the manager and ask if they had any GT allocations. But only after pointing to my GT3 in the parking lot and explaining that yes, I own one and I can afford to purchase another. GM then told me that sorry they won't be getting any 3RS and they are done. EXCEPT... for ONE very special one they have just for me lol... at like $50K over. Two months later I get a call and magically they have two more. Bunch of crooks.

Hopefully that is correct - so many rumours now for Europe allocations and the discussions how the PF will work and the WLTP driving cycles.

Yes, the new driving cycles in Europe to meet the new emissions, this is why Porsche nearly has produced a single car sep-dec 2018 for Europe.

Porsche is still building cars for America. Are these cars affected by the new regulations? That is do they have particulate filters?
