The invoices for all GT3s will be manually corrected as the cars exit US ports to go to the dealers.

Manual Transmission (No Touring Package) - $1,700
PDK (No Touring Package) - $1,000
Manual Transmission including Touring Package - $1,000"
Thank you,
That clarifies it for a Touring

My Touring GGT was $1,700, did anyone pay $1,000. If so please post your window sticker.

I don't have my sticker but I know it was $1000. The build sheet showed $1700 but when car came the sticker said $1000. That's why no one should assume anything until their cars are at the dealer.

I loved Amsterdam, but that has to be the most stressful and unsatisfying city for a Porsche - I was nearly run over by 1,000 bicycles

At least I finally found a place to leave it ($25 meter):

As GT3 explained above:



My winged GT3 is to arrive by the end of this month. On the internal dealer system it also shows two GGT line items, one for $1700 and another for $1000. Re-read the above quote and understand why this is. The end result for me will be a $1000 GGT. This has been confirmed by my dealer.

If people still don't believe this, browse around on the EPA websites and you will find that a $2700 GGT doesn't even exist. The rates are $1000, $1300, $1700, $2100, $2600, $3000, ..... (already provided in post #39 as well)
You will not find a single person that has paid $2700.

LOL!! Could not have said it more assertively myself.

Just checked my own sticker and receipts. The Gas Guzzler Tax on my car, 2018 GT3, PDK, with wing, delivered March 2018, was $1,000. Actual money paid.

My GT3 Touring was invoiced March 22, 2018 and the GGT (called a Green Tax in Canada) was $1,000 CDN.

My build sheet for 2018 touring had $1700, but sticker will say $1000. I assume the same is true for 2019, but I don’t think we have actually seen a 2019 window sticker yet.

There are a couple of ones that are wrong floating around ($1000 on a wing manual).
