Default What is the deal with the GT3 micro window sticker?

What is the deal with the GT3 micro window sticker? It basically shows only the option and MPG. My 2018 Sport Turismo has the same traditional sticker showing standard equipment instead of blank.

I'm curious if this is a GT3 Touring thing or for all Porsche build since January?

My understanding is all the tourings got reprinted window stickers as they left with $1700 gas guzzler tax and are actually only $1000.

This reminds me that Porsche was weird about reprinting. I demanded a new window sticker buying a brand new boxster spyder and Porsche refused.

Maybe they aren't prepared printing these stateside. It just looks strange and bare without much info. But I guess it's a good deal saving $700.00.

They print them stateside too. PCNA in Atlanta must have a means to do it since they sent me both of my Monroney's for each of my Porsches and mailed them to me BEFORE I even took possession of the car. Both cars were European Delivery and PCNA sent me the package before I left for my trip.

Thanks for the info. Now I’m glad I’ve changed dealers. I’m buying all my Porsche at the same but different place.

So strange or lazy on this sticker. I’m sure lots of people will complain when they see it picking up thier gt3 Touring. First thing I’ve said is what’s this, lol...

Anyone confirm if their winged gt3 window sticker looks normal?

Default “Real” (aka winged) GT3 window sticker is normal

My window sticker looked the same as every other car I have had, sizewise. Of course it did have the smaller ADM sticker attached as well.

Thanks for the picture, that is what it should look like. It must be a touring gas tax revision thing.

MSRP's were changed for all new Porsche vehicles. It's just coincidence you've noticed on the Touring first.

I picked up my GT3 last week the day after it arrive from the port. Unfortunately, it has the micro sticker, too. Mine is a normal, non-touring.

I bet that micro sticker is gonna cost me a $10k hit on resale value.

That's true, you missed the last of the Porsches with a real Monroney sticker.

In Canada we are not getting the window sticker. They just send us an authentication paper by mail which lists the price, VIN and options. Dealer told me no more window sticker for us with no explanation.

My US car was built in November and delivered in mid-late January. Full Monroney sticker.
