Not possible. I have an official written offer with total price of the car.
Nothing extra obviously. Car is MSRP minus a discount.
I got a Targa 4GTS on order also and told my dealer If I get hit with another 20% then I rather walk away. No way I am going to pay another 33K on top of 166k MSRP and then I have to pay another 10% for sale tax in California.

I am not based in States but in Europe. Therefore this 20% extra is not applicable in my case.
At least we have some benefits although you have many others starting from lower MSRPs...

My thoughts exactly. I was going to put my current car up for sale but will probably delay that. I don't want to wind up with no Porsche to drive. Used Porsche prices will likely go up as a result of tariffs.
Trade tariffs between sovereign states are not assessed at point of sale. There already is a 2.5% tariff on European cars but few of us were aware. I believe the new tariff costs would need to be addressed through increased manufacturer pricing. If you have a contract at a specified price, Im pretty sure you will be fine regardless of what happens in this fiasco. Porsche would have to eat it. More likely would be some transitional rule that gives them time to adjust pricing.
wmc- I live in OC and have a GT Silver '19 on order as well. My build date got moved up to late July (from my original of Oct. 5) partly due to my Leipzig pickup- still a wait, but hey 2 mos better than 3.

Please post some pictures when you pick it up!
Regarding the comment about tariffs and pricing, when I ordered my current car the dealer quoted a price based on the MSRP. If a tariff were to be applied, the dealer's cost would be adjusted upwards and also the MSRP, correct? Perhaps Porsche will offer to eat some of the tariff and won't raise MSRP by the entire tariff amount.

Unlikely. You will still pay the same amount as tariffs are supposedly built into the MSRP.
I put money down on a C4 GTS on Monday at a 4% discount off of MSRP. However, my dealer does not currently have a C4 GTS allocation. He had a C2 GTS allocation at V200 (July 19 Build) but I insisted on a C4. He was confident that he could either obtain or trade for a C4 GTS allocation within a week or so (likely October build date). We will see how it goes. I may complicate things though because I am considering a change to PTS and the window probably won't open back up until after the plant shut down in August.

would you mind pming me the dealer? I want that c2 gts allocation
I am new to the forum and wanted to jump into the discussion. I share all of your concerns, but I am also not getting any younger.
Like all of you, I have a $160K 911 GTS PDK 991.2 on order with a September build date.
I have decided either way--tariff or no tariff--to secure the car. If this goes through, I expect to see Porsche honor orders placed as early as May and eat the tariff.
I think the last thing they want is a slow down in production and growing inventory of US-spec'd vehicles.
First - thanks to all the incredible members on this forum. Being new to Porsche and the 911, I got educated a lot here to eventually configure my dream car that I intend to keep for a while!
I ordered a 991.2 2019 GTS!!!
Delivery expected early/mid Oct at PEC LA.
It was not easy for me to find the allocation and finally found one out of state. I was fortunate with my allocation - I got mine since the person who had the allocation cancelled. I had approached this dealer earlier and he did not have an allocation then and he luckily checked in with me to see if I was still looking.
As all of you can imagine, I am beyond SUPER excited and counting days eagerly (and very impatiently) awaiting my first 911!

Hi Kenny,
I tried to PM you, but for some reason I seem to have lost my PM rights. I heard from my dealer today and was informed that they traded the C2 GTS allocation for a Turbo S allocation that was then traded for a C4 GTS allocation. However, when I asked him about the C2 allocation, he assured me that he could get another C2 GTS allocation if you are interested. The dealer is Bert Smith Porsche in St Petersburg and the SA is John Aslan. The dealership phone number is 727-527-1111.
I was told that my C4 GTS is V200 with a late July build and likely delivery in November. July Build and November delivery sounds a little long to me, but he promised to email me the final build sheet and estimated production dates.
Good luck with your C2 GTS purchase and let me know how it works out.
