MT + backseat = 911.

If you don't need one or both, there are many options! No wrong choices. McLaren. Aston. Ferrari. Lambo. R8. NSX. I think Supra is coming back. GT350r. New GT3. Vette. The last few new Vipers. AMG GT. Nissan GTR. Bentley GT. M6 or M4 with money left over to modify Just saw the LC500 and liked it more than I would have thought. Nice to have so many choices. Good time to be a car guy with an extra $100k+ in the bank

How is the GT3 not available? You mean not currently? Sure, but come September it will be on the ground in NA dealer lots.

Meaning good luck getting one, allocations are tough to come by. Doubt you'll see one in a lot that's not already spoken for.

The first set of .2 991 gt3 dealer allocations
have already been distributed. But there will
be further allocations in a few months. The
VW Group needs the cash. PAG will produce
quite a number of .2 gt3s & many other gt
models as long as demand is there!

There will actually be quite a few on dealer lots that are not spoken for.

I live in Toronto. I go to Pfaff. Pfaff is the largest Porsche dealer in Canada. I am a repeat customer. They have told me all allocations are spoken for with a huge wait list. Are you telling me they are lying? I am confused. Why would they do that? They got me the 911/50 and there were fewer of those than GT3's.

I dunno about Canada, but in the U.S. there are lots of allocations right now that are unspoken for. And if no one picks up those allocations, then the cars will be built and delivered to dealer lots come September/October, when the next wave of allocations arrive in the U.S.

While Bacula is talking about Canada and from what I've read they got very few allocations so far, where are you seeing lots of allocations right now that are unspoken for in the U.S.? I've contacted every dealer in the Western half of the U.S. and have yet to find a single available allocation. Please PM me where any are currently available that you are aware of that aren't asking a ridiculous ADM.

I am hoping that as more allocations roll out, there is one available for me, but there sure isn't currently in this first wave. Except for the few out there asking $40-50k over, I'm not aware of any available GT3 allocations.

Most dealers in CA have allocations available. Now, whether they are asking for a markup is a different question.

But then again, that wasn't what the OP was asking, right? The question was whether one could get a 1.2 GT3. The answer clearly is "yes" -- at least in the U.S. The question wasn't whether one could get a 1.2 GT3 at MSRP or some other price.

Ok, let's get the names & countries right
since it's all getting very confusing.

Bacula was talking about gt3 allocations
in Transylvania. Bacura was asking about
the same...but in Canada! Are we straight?
