I'm pretty indecisive regarding cars so:
maybe add a GT350 or GLC63 coupe
sell RS for huracan perfomante or Mclaren 720s

Hopefully you're not talking about your wife tearing a strip off you?

On the plus side, he did confirm that he should be able to get me a car when it's released.
Hmm, your dealer thinks it will be more than 10 months between press release (and Geneva unveiling) and delivery? Either your dealer is wrong, they have too few allocations to get a car in the first round, or Porsche is going to be much slower in their schedule than in the past...

As an illustration, the GT4 was shown in Geneva 2015 and US deliveries began in mid-summer 2015. Not saying the GT3 schedule will be as timely, but would be shocked to see it over 5 months slower.

For the first time in possibly....ever....I'm not chasing anything. Happy with current combo (RS + S3) and neither need any mods other than maybe a clear bra redo on RS after this track season and consumables during. I'm focusing on becoming a better driver this year. That and cycling

The new Simpson Hybrid S is FIA approved for 3 point belts. I just got one and it works fine ; no discomfort in the seat. A good move while you are waiting for the .2 with LWB's.

Yep. I use one. Seems like a major improvement over just the seat belt and helmet

They're basing it on the fact that Porsche is behind schedule on everything at the moment, not a concern about allocations. Like I said, I'm hoping they're wrong.

Well since I didn't get a RS at or close to Msrp, I'm waiting on a .2 Gt3 to spec like I want. Until then I'll have fun at the Smokies events and maybe a few extra track events. Current car might get some fresh ppf as it's getting a little chewed up on rockers
