Default 991.2 GT3RS No PTS without WP

Apologies if old news.. been gone from rennlist for about a year, searched the first 4-5 pages and didn't find anything related to this.

I got a PTS allocation last week here in Europe, but according to the dealer no PTS if no WP. Not really liking the looks of the exposed carbon, but I guess there is no other solution unless dropping PTS.

Anyone else with similar news?

Thanks,
Asco

Yup, i have tried everything, every rock i look under i still get the same answer, no PTS. I'd be shocked if Europe gets it and USA doesn't, but sincerely happy for you if its a real slot.

You can't get 909WP with the painted hood in Europe? That would just leave the roof and wing as exposed carbon, which seems like a good compromise. I'm not a big fan of exposed carbon hoods either, but the other exposed carbon on my 909WP car I'm happy with.

I feel like a lot of people search for these special allocations super late in the build cycle. If you want just a standard .2RS, you gotta be years ahead of the game. For my 991.2 GT3 allocation, I had my name on a list for 2 years (and it is not a PTS allocation). However, if you are willing to pay a ton over MSRP, then my argument is pointless; lol.

Thanks AC. Confirmed, will post pics as soon as the car arrives (probably end of summer earliest). I guess I was really lucky as I didn't request, just got an email from the dealer. I was on the list for the GT2RS with a deposit that the dealer had for over a year and didn't get one, so maybe this is the compensation for that .

909 is available, but to my eye it seems better to not paint the hood then if the roof and wing are exposed anyways..

Spoke to a dealer recently and he was pretty confident of PTS in the second EU batch. Same guy confirmed no way from day 1 for the first batch. No mention of a WP requirement though.

Maybe it's peace offering to make up for PM filter?
