+1 though I didn't think to clarify if SA meant MY18.

I think Brett meant MY18. Still MY19 ahead.

Is it really true that all the 2018 allocations are done? Seems unlikely that round 2 was done within 1 day of release.... are there more folks that can confirm or deny this?

My local dealer where im on a list for got in 20 allocations yesterday that they gave out to their first 20 customers on their list. I really hope allocations are not done and they get in more.

I'm hoping to find out more tomorrow. My dealer had 3, 1 for May which will be a 2018 and 2 for Nov which will be 2019. At least thats what i was told. They aren't a huge dealer probably one of the smaller ones in the area. They are opening a moving to a brand new facility which is exciting!

I checked in with another dealer in the midwest, they apparently got 3 as well.

Didn't you recently state you got an allocation but had to trade in your existing one?

Yea I did say that. It fell through, they wanted some ridiculous trade in value on my current GT3, so I passed on it.

I've a friend looking for an MSRP PDK allocation trading in his 35K mile 997RS.
He's not in a hurry but ready. We're going to a big dealer tomorrow.

Does it mean if customers who placed a deposit but did not get a call from their dealers this week or so, then no car for them for 2018 and they need to wait and hope for an allocation in 2019?

I think I got my allocation today insofar as there is now one with my name at least penciled in on it. Some details to iron out, but looking good. Knock on wood. I did not specifically ask about how many more they got, but I think based on comments they got the remainder for the model year at least. I am sure there is a chance for some sprinkled in extra allocations as in the past though.

My SA confirmed that they got their entire allocation this week as well and not expecting any more.
