My Dealer has no lists and does not take deposits. If my Dealer did I would never publish what number I am and divulge who they are. Be happy if you are in the Frontline and move on. Dealers read this forum and so do a lot of people and I have seen people get snaked out of cars because they published stuff like this

wow.. i think you've just hit on something. this is very smart. most of really dislike having to go do to a dealer anyway.. dealers become service centers, cars sold from the factory, everything made to order.. once you commit you're in, no more games.. jesus dude, who are you, Elon Musk?
Anyhow, Porsche sold those 918s directly to the customers and let the customers pick which dealer they wanted the car delivered to....what's so hard about replicating the same process with the GT cars? It's not like it's 10s of thousands of cars, just a few thousand a year or so. Before the car is announced people can register on a website and then the PCNA system randomly selects people who have registered. To obtain an allocation and spec the car you have to put a deposit of like $10k on the car...if you pass it goes on to the next person. The people that register after the car is released come next. This would also give Porsche great visibility as to demand and how much they could scale up production to meet demand and no car is built until they is a deposit that is made.

Maybe PCNA can give us pre-registration access to owners who have purchased x number of cars in a certain period (like 5 years). The goal is that everyone who wants a GT gets one without the BS games that some of us have gone through. At least I'm being honest when I say that I'll never buy a new non-GT Porsche car from a dealer.

Start pounding the proverbial digital pavement with emails and phone calls.. Don't wait for someone to spoon feed you.. learn to catch that meal on your own.
but they require around 25k US$ deposit to be in the list. Its SMACO the only Porsche dealership in Saudi. it also would be my first Porsche ever! Hope its worth it.
