Update in SoCal...Got a call from two SA's at Porsche Newport Beach with the exact same script...
"Are you still interested in a GT3? We had a customer order one and back out last minute. The car is here in our shop if you want to come down. It won't last long but I wanted to call you first."
"What are the options?"
"It's Loaded! Come and see."
"Can I buy it at MSRP?"
" The market is way to hot, we are asking $30,000 over MSRP."
"No Thanks, others are getting them at MSRP...I will wait."
B.S.! No one ordered that car.
Happy Turkey Day!

My 2 cents on ADM is back around 2000 when the new Mercedes SL came out I paid $10K ADM for one of the first, $110k car, a first for me, drove it for a year and sold it for MSRP. Not so bad. I bought a ‘16 RS, 1600 miles paid $35k over, kept it for 6 months lost $5K, ‘16 GT3 800 miles $15k over lost $5K 6 months later. Long point is ADM has enabled me to have some cars when I wanted them and Porsche has been good to me unlike R8 and several M Series BMW,s

Here is someone already trying to flip their own 991.2 GT3 in LA for big profit because they say they have a GT2 allocation and probably plan to flip it too. Maybe he is realizing he needs to flip it before word is out that Porsche is making more and they might not be so rare. Just another allocation that doesn't go to an enthusiast.

Germany is a mostly socialist country, there are thousands of brainwashed lunatics, touting environment, global warming and diversity every day. Theres no way they'd build cars that didnt meet emission standards because of the PR effect. The ongoing diesel gate scandal may send people to jail for real. Personally, I think they should have used an affirmative defense, "yes we did it, it was within the rules and everyone does it" same thing they do in racing. Headlights moved, two rear windows, reskinned bodies, etc etc, Porsche has done it all in racing, rules are made to be exploited

America is far more accepting of ***** today than Germany ever will be. Your president defends them marching in the streets. It's downright frightening!
Let's not devolve into politics here. I just can't believe you said that!

Now back to which dealer is asking for what ADM and how many cars are being produced.

Internationally we we hear about things like him defending **** rallies by saying some of them are good people. That definitely taints our view of how things are there. I'm not so naive as to think there isn't another side of the story we're not privy to.
I know it's illegal in Germany to even display **** symbolism.
I apologize for the slight. My point is only that Germany isn't going back to **** practices and that ***** must always be opposed.
