Reputable Porsche dealer in Woodbridge:
"Current allocations have all been taken. We don't know how 2018 would look like."

They know exactly how 2018 looks.

I would take that to mean that Canada hasn't received 2018 allocations yet like the US.

This is where additional info would be nice like a) we expect get 2018 numbers by x b) you are x on the list c) we had x allocations for 2017

Seems a good number of US dealers are better at being a bit more open.

SKY57

a) # of allocations for 2018 is unlikely to be accurate at this moment. There had always been random addition allocations released during the year.
b) and c) I'm first time Porsche buyer. If there exists a "list", my position would be behind all the other more "valuable" customer.
I'm on the list only because I paid my deposit years ago and I was told I have a "pretty good chance" at that time.

This sucks, but there is plenty of time.

I to totally agree ....they say I'm number 3 .
Number one is incoming.
But no news on number 2 or 3 .
All they say is be patient.
I want something ....I get nothing.

I find it hard to believe that US Dealers are saying they received all of 2018 allocations and Canada has received "(0)".

Is that typical??

I am not trying to wind people up but there is "0" consistency to anything that we are hearing.

Has any one in Canada received a "firm' allocation with a build slot??

Got my allocation for November 2018 production at MSRP. Hang in there guys don't encourage this behavior by playing into their hands.

RealityGT

Not for 991.1 or GT4.. While the US always seem to come first, our allocations were not far behind. The first round here was almost nothing.. 918 owners and some "best customers" got 1st round allocations, but I know most are waiting.. I know they're coming.. but RL chatter makes it tough on people waiting..

I find it had to believe anything they say.

M5 my dealer has been telling me the same thing so I panicked and paid an ADM to someone else He actually told me to find a warm space in my mind and be patient. No, didn't tell him to go F*ck himself, because the rat bastard might still call me. Nevertheless I ended my self imposed exile from my favorite forum the day I paid the fiddler and I put in for PTS. I'm disgusted with myself but elated to be back with this group on this site pondering m Gt3 build.

Got my 2014 @ Msrp

I was told I got an allocation for November build, but it seems that allocation was given away or didn't materialize because now I'm summer 2018 it seems, with nothing really concrete to go by.

Dealer has asked for my build 2 times now. I like my SA, good guy so I don't harass him. But no real info coming from that end.

I placed my deposit over 2.5 years ago. I have purchased a few cars from my dealer in the past, not a newbie.

I'm pretty confident I'm getting a car, but hopefully for spring 2018. Don't want to miss track season.

SToronto

GT R allocation should be available for summer 2018. Expecting first cars to land soon. Thinking to put a deposit down and see where things land.

RealityGT

I'm certain we will get our cars in due time.. Your dealer will get the bulk, so I am certain you will have your allocation soon.

Nice! I was contemplating the same.. may have to drop by MB dealership this weekend.

SToronto

I'm liking the solar beam yellow!

I wonder how durable the car would be on track, at most I would do 2-3 events a year at this point in life.

It's a tough decision overall, I really am hooked on 911 and would like to step into a GT3. But I can enjoy other cars as well. Budget wouldn't allow to have a GT3 and GTR let alone my garage only has room for two and the C4S is staying. What we need is garage condos in the GTA like they have in the US. Wonder how that Alberta project is doing, think it was Calgary?

Wild Weasel

I strongly encourage all of you southern Ontario folk to go ahead and get your deposits back and use them for the Merc.
