I'm hearing of several cars with May build.
You have 918?

I can dream of a June build.

I asked my dealer about any colors or options that would speed up the build but he swears I get the first one and the production date is September 18.

I have tickets to Stuttgart for last week in June.

+1

I'd hope no later than June since they should know exactly what their numbers are by that point. Plus I'll be really upset watching all the positive review and comparison videos while still riding the pine on the sideline

Their allocation comes in every quarter so most likely June he said. So far they received one RS and one GT4. He had two more GT4 allocation in the works and I was on the list and he asked yesterday if I still want one and I said nope. He knows what I want

If PTS comes through, mine will be PTS, if not I'll stick to UV.

Here is a 73 in Royal Purple/Lilac:

No 918.

I would say your opinion IS 100% correct! I placed the car there as a bit of a toll for others to imagine the ultraviolet GT3RS with white wheels on it. THanks for the additional input

What was your build, lightweight battery, etc? just wondering if you had any items thought to delay production. If suppliers have ramped up their production then maybe hope for us all!

Is the lightweight battery worth the additional cost?

I didn't. I think Allan ordered a white stipper RS. That might have something to do with it.

I sorta like my Sept production date. Some of the fun is the anticipation of its arrival.

For me, I'd pass on the Lightweight battery. Had it in my GT2 RS, when it came time to replace, replaced it with a conventional AGM battery. Less hassle, less worry (with respect to storage and maintenance).

Granted, some cars come with it standard (such as my SLS Black Series, or the upcoming AMG GT S). In those cases, I'll take it. Otherwise, I'll use the couple K on something else (more oil changes, brake pads).

Have most people ordered the extended fuel tank?
