Default Signal Green GT3 Available SoCal

Just got an e-mail from McKenna that a signal green is arriving in May. Nice build but no LWB or even 18 ways. I just picked up my personal car, but this should be a beautiful and rare PTS. I was working with Adrian.

I did not get the "adjustment" yet. The white in their showroom a couple weeks ago they were looking for 10k over but likely could have been had for 5 more. I would imagine this vehicle will require a healthy additional cost. One of the last 991.1 GT3's and very likely the last PTS GT3 to be available until the .2's. Someone will pay for the exclusivity.

And another customer somewhere that wanted their PTD gets screwed because a dealer held back their PTS allocation to spec it themselves and turn a quick profit instead...

With all these PTS May delivery cars, Porsche must have given a bunch of them out to dealers under the table and it sounds like they all cashed the in for their own spec builds to sell to the highest bidder.

I understand it's a business, but still...

I guess some things will never change. So much for looking out for their customers. I guess they're confident business is booming right now and Porsche don't care if they **** a few off.

I was thinking just the opposite. Not long ago, a Porsche dealer would order additional allocations in silver, grey, or black....a dealer's worst nightmare would have been an incoming green car with no buyer...

Would you care to provide us with the dealer's name? I have no doubt that there are unscrupulous greedy dealers, but not everyone. I got my GT3 PTS, magic (voodoo) blue in October of 2014 at the MSRP and not a single penny over that

McKenna/Adrian offered me the white one @+$5k. Trade offer +CA taxes killed the deal for me.
