I think when I tried maxing it out (with just normal, not bespoke, options), I can top it off at $505k. Despite its reputation, Porsche doesn't even come close in this game.

Very, very true! The shields are pretty much mandatory and Ferrari knows that so they charge like $700 for them

And let's not bring the $200 iPod cable into the discussion

The shields are over $1,600, and the iPod cable is over $900.

Correct. What do you think this is, a Porsche? :P

Was this part of the initial allocations from your dealer or did they receive more?

For what it's worth, this is what I know from a very reputable source. I say that knowing we all believe we have good sources. There will be roughly 700 RSs coming to the States. About 230 will go to 918 owners the remainder will be allocated to dealers by sales volume. If you haven't got one now you likely wont get one unless dealer is holding out. Everyone has their allocation already. That said, Porsche will likely hold back 10-20 cars that may be allocated at the end as dealer perks for top sellers so I would hit them up first. Production will cease in December for RSs. No word on 991.2 RSs. Everybody saying otherwise is likely guessing based on historical data.

Hope this is helpful. I was lucky to have a V200 for one of the first non 918 allocation.

To add to the speculation, 918 buyers may be less than recently thought. This may make for earlier build dates and several more allocations. Allan

WHY? Lock in Dates for 918 buyers are near. Maybe some who thought they would have more time to flip the car, have decide not to?

I would bet most 918 buyers have collections. They may or may not want an RS that is not limited. Also what's your time worth. It takes time and effort to flip a car.
