Why GT's still on configurator if no Allocation?

Build your own, but wait no allocation. Makes sense.

100%

if anyone on this board built 10% of the cars that they tried configuring Porsche would have sold more cars than Toyota. I personally just keep car config windows on my desktop all the time. I build 20+ porsche, mclaren and other cars a month.

LoL no chance. I'm full. I just do it for practice- sometimes you only have an hour and the PTS window opens and closes.

I'm waiting on the GT3 RS call. I still believe!! Although I think they just keep the configurator open for most to dream. 918 is over but still on the config.

So you can figure out what they really should cost.

When I was a teenager living in a trailer park, I would spec 911s and dream about getting one when i was older. I just took delivery of my 4th 911 and 1st GT3.
