Don't forget, the GT3's (because of their low ground clearance) have to be specially transported, and there are only a relatively few trucks that are properly equipped. That suggests that the GT3's may well be the last of the load to actually arrive at the dealers.

You may now line up the firing squad to shoot the messenger...

Mine won't be here until January 2nd.
Dealer said something about Porsche meeting its' sales goal for 2014 and not releasing anything else until next year. Apparently pretty common at the years end.

Default Has anyone received a GT3 yet from Glovis Companion?

She docked last Saturday at 0200. As of this past Wednesday, some cars (my friend's Cayenne Turbo included) have arrived at SoCal dealerships.

But I haven't yet seen my 991GTS. I'm told there may be a hold on that model, and I'm wondering if anyone has seen any of her GT3's yet?

If not, it lends more credence to the possibility that they're holding all GT3's until after the first of the year.

Walter's Riverside CA just got their first 2015 GT3 (with light weight buckets) this evening while my friend was having her new Cayenne Turbo delivered. It was a car from the Glovis Companion, so at least a few of their GT3's are finally hitting the dealers.
