bonus cars to us dealers 125 ( included in the 1200 )
PTS possible only late production run
US market possible MT in .2 big up charge
all 911's going Turbo , only GT cars to remain natural
all allocations spoken for
960 don't hold your breath you may turn blue
I had heard from a couple of sources (2 dealers and MJones on RL) that 225 was the 918 uptake. But the dealers also said 725 cars total.

Regardless of 700 or 725, what jumps out at me is how few of them seem to have gone to people on this board. Demand has obviously way out stripped supply.

Wish we had a count on how many allocations have been sent out outside of the 918 buyers. It just doesn't seem like that many.

I still think it's around 400 non 918 slots, but I'm not sure how many are confirmed orders now or dealers still seeing what they can get above MSRP for them.

Hmm, never heard a marketing term such as that one. I thought it was a motorsports company in Florida.

Thumbs up Got my commission number for my 2016 GT3 RS!!!

Finally my dealer got their only single allocation and I got my official commission number and I will be joining the RS club. My order is officially in the system.

I sold my white 991 GT3 few weeks ago and I am super excited to have the RS in my stable for life as I feel like this one will be a long term keeper!!

Let me know your feedback on my options and build specs pls.

Car is October build and December delivery.

Now the long and very torturous wait begins!!!!

Nice. Congrats! Still waiting on my alloc to hit once the next wave of allocs (hopefully) drop. (I'm next in line.)

Curious about the Alcantara Sun Visors. I hesitated on that one because of the airbag sticker (which I like to remove). Not going to be easy to remove that with 99% IPA if it's stuck on Alcantara vs. leather or vinyl. Anyone have experience with this?

I thought you had specced a maritime?

I'm in the same boat - allegedly next in line

I did. Unfortunately, after clarifying my position in line earlier this week (I had two different position #'s written down on my docs), it turns out I just missed the initial wave (well, second wave, if you count the 918 VIP's as the first wave).

Sitting with a commish # in V070 status right now. Just waiting for an alloc to come by and convert to V200.

Good work. Did they give you any hints on what other colours might be available?
