Default I saw 2 2016 991 GTS cars come in today

Just thought I would give a heads up to anyone looking for a new 2016 GTS 991 car. One is in carmine red and the other is in agate grey. Still have wrap on them.

They are at Woodhouse Porsche in Omaha Ne. 402 592 1000. Ask for Adam Brooks. Great guy and just passing the word around because I know guys have been asking. I don't know prices or options on them.

I checked with a dealer a couple of weeks ago and they said there were roughly 150 GTS units still out there either at a dealer or in transit. This didn't account for ordered units. FWIW.

Did you happen to see if these were 7mt or PDK?

With the number of GTSs still and soon to be in inventory there is still an opportunity to get a new (NA) GTS close to the way you would have ordered it.
But that window will not be open forever.

Maybe. Pretty cool to see the different colors. My cars supposed to be delivered any minute so I am amped up lol. Its guards red. But I did like seeing the same car in the tow other colors. The agate grey was pretty interesting.

They are both PDKS. I just spoke with them. He told me the carmine red one sold already and the agate grey one seems like it may be on the move as well!

Well, I can testify that finding a manual GTS that matches one's taste is getting difficult.
Not sure what the PDK/manual ratio is for "regular" C2 or C2S but I imagined that number would be higher for the GTS. Still, not many of those out there.

I can imagine that most if not all GTS'es ordered and specced by dealers would be PDK ... its a brave dealer that specs 7MT for their inventory!

My dealer said roughly 90/10 split. But some areas with higher traffic, like Austin, would most definitely favor PDK.

Good luck with what's left. In my search it was 90/10 PDK, then you have to be prepared to buy an over-specced car ~140K ordered to stock.

I couldn't find one that didn't have fatal order flaws so I passed and went C2S.
