That was me, and every call I made from these 'current inventory' sheets was LONG GONE. It is MEANINGLESS. I would bet my allocation that none of these cars is really available to buy. I know the GM of Pacific and one of the SSP there VERY well. I called repeatedly regarding the GT3's that consistently show up on their web site. NONE have ever been available. These are not 'real cars' for 'real sale'. Trust me. Go ahead, call Pacific, ask for Kam and tell him you have cash in hand for one of the gt3's they have as 'inventory. Have fun, good luck.

I don't think all that many cars were actually bought back. Considering the low production numbers it probably equates to well under 100 cars worldwide. I could be wrong, but several of the folks on here that swore they were returning the cars ended up sticking it out.

Where is PCNA going to sell the MY2014 gt3's they are currently buying from 'disgruntled' individual customers in the US? What are PCNA or Porsche dealers doing with the order cancellations of those MY2014 gt3's not yet delivered but already built & awaiting new engines? And where is 'Inside Car Connection' (a sponsor of this forum) and other brokers presently getting their MY2014 gt3's?

My dealer has told me once a car is given a VIN it will shop up on the dealers website controlled by Porsche not the dealer.
Look at dealer listings for 911's, you will see 2015's are showing up. They are both cars the dealer ordered for stock and car's customers have ordered from the dealer.
My 2014 GT3 at the factory for engine replacement just showed up. The car was given a VIN that is why is shows on my dealers web site.
I believe the research done by others is correct, no GT3's on dealer web sites are available for sale except if you find one on the used sight of the dealer it still may not be sold (Those are cars that came back that had been purchased) I know of one such car that had about 2,500 miles and sold for $20k OVER MSRP in two days upon it's return from the port.

Truth is the concussion of the stop sale has past for most of the guys who already had cars in their garages.
RUF RS is correct. At least about Pacific. Hell, they hardly have any 991 inventory let alone a GT3 on the floor except that white one a few months back that was sold.
In about 3 months if you want one you will be able to get your hands on one but it won't be for less than MSRP. Even with 15's trickle in. Dec. will be a nice month to pick up a low mileage 991 somewhere cold East coast for sure. That's my plan.

BMW does the same with new car deliveries once a vin is issued it shows available. It's not a dealer trick because you can always back out, and they need a plan B to sell a car that will have a daily handling cost for the dealer. I do believe very few potential really sold their cars back?? I know at one of my local dealers he had two returns because they called me, and yes they were sold the same day they went available with no engine. This case is closed.

My car is on my Dealer website. Until I take delivery that is how it is done. If I decide to walk they just call one of their clients that they hand pick who has been pestering them for one.
Just watch Sam's video on the other thread on how the car sounds at 9000 rpm. Any one walking from this now will wish they had not

I walked and am not regretting it for one minute. I'll be happily on the sidelines with my 997.2 GT3 and see which of my deposits I'll be going for-the RS or the AMG-GT-S.

Z356- You make a good point about the US cars that PCNA are buying back. I have no idea if they are awarding them to specific US Dealers or letting PAG decide what part of the world they will be shipped to. As for the cars being bought back form Dealers; there is a list at every Dealer that they will either sell it to the highest bidder or sell it to one of their long standing Customers who missed the boat on the first go around.

The one at Rusnak I posted was available 2 days ago. Call Stephen if you want it: (626) 229-2886. He said they're selling it at MSRP.
