Interesting! Maybe Eduardo can make a guess at that one...

Yes, only a few of us (like my friend Sportscentury) are playing this game here with Zach. Or is it the other way around?
I wondered in an earlier post if Zach was masquerading as the OP and trying to hype the 'Arena Red Metallic' gt3 that the dealership he works for has for sale. Previously, the Rennlist moderator(s) has deleted Zach Martin's threads because neither he nor his dealership are a Rennlist sponsor. So when I mentioned that the license plates in the original photo appeared to show State of Washington ID, the OP decided to delete the photo to remove evidence! We report...you decide!

Seapar: If you remember the original photo the OP posted, do you recognized that as a dealership where you saw this ARM gt3 'in person'? Don't mention the name of the dealership or its location. We know exactly where it is and what they have been asking for it...but no need to give them the free publicity. Just tell us if you recognized the parking lot from the original OP's photo. Thanks.
Warning: This thread might soon vanish if the moderators decide to teach Zach (yet another) lesson...

I did not recognize that parking lot or even see the "clue" you gave about the license plates. I deleted my pictures because too big; attached directly from my phone. Slowly cooling off up here BTW; maybe 70's this weekend.

No game-playing on my end (don't have the time or interest), but I have noticed Zach has been more successful in having his RL threads and posts removed by the Mods than he has in collecting the $10k premium.

No problem. Yes, I was cooking there during my recent stay in S and the Hood Canal!
Well, my friend picked up his car today, here's a pic of it just before he took it out for his first test drive. Yes! its a dealer in Washington state and I don't know the specifics of how much he paid for it exactly and it's really none of my business. It's such a cool car

Larson was asking 10k over MSRP when they received their allocation. I wonder if they were able to get your friend to pay the premium or not.
Why do you insist on calling me Zach, at first I thought this board was kind of cool, but I'm beginning to think there are some jerks on this site. Anyways! I thought you guys would enjoy seeing this car in this color, but some of the responses are a little disrespectful and strange. Anyways, my friend is proud as Hell with this Car and I think it looks awesome, so I'll just find another board that has members that don't act this way.
Been a lurker on here as I try to figure out if I am going to buy one of these cars. That said, the Porsche Exchange in Highland Park called me and offered an Arena Red car for ~156k. I don't know the options nor looked at it as I am not interested in the color but thought someone here might be.

As far as updating our records, we have known that 'The Porsche Exchange' was getting this allocation as far back as 3/20/2015 and we posted here on 3/22/2015. What is news is that this 'Arena Red Metallic' gt3 was not sold and now they are asking $30K over sticker!

Thank you for giving the Porsche Exchange an opportunity to earn your business. ..... The Porsche Exchange is the exclusive Premier Porsche Dealership in the Chicago region and the largest in the Midwest! I received your inquiry on a Porsche 911 GT3. Did you have any questions about the GT3? I do have an available Arena Red GT3 that just arrived yesterday! Did you have some time to stop in and check it out soon?
We are looking for $30K over MSRP for this GT3 so I’m not sure if that eliminates this GT3 from consideration.
Oh well, at any rate still too crazy for me.
Thanks for you help too!

We identified on March 22nd, via one of our Rennlist member that provided that information, 'The Porsche Exchange' as one of the dealers that would be receiving (after it was built & shipped over) an 'Arena Red Metallic' gt3. And it was followed up with this on March 24th:
The ARM gt3s were actually built sometime in March or April. The ARM gt3s started arriving recently at the dealerships that were awarded by PAG/PCNA the special allocations. So it's not surprising this car arrived in the Chicago yesterday. It was probably on the same boat as hlee1169's ARM gt3. That one also recently arrived at Porsche of Omaha.
Thanks for the follow up on the $30K over MSRP which Porsche Exchange is asking.

I hit a “3” instead of a “2”. It’s actually $20K over
