Default True cost for 991.2 GTS

Looking to buy a new GTS and wondering what kind of discount (if any) I should be expecting. Would be my first Porsche, so not looking to compare w/ best deal available to somebody on their n-th car. I'm considering built-to-order - does that generally reduce or increase the amount of discount available? I'm in the Seattle area, so any data specifically in that region or nearby would be particularly interesting!
Thanks for the help!

Seattle may be pricey, too much Monopoly money floating around! I would look at a Midwest dealership (or Texas) and see if they will get down on price, throw in shipping. Invoice is what, 7% under sticker? I don't buy new, so perhaps not the best person to ask, but PNW dealers in general on Porsche are some of the highest in the country on used cars.

Just ordered a 2018 for August delivery- dealer owed me a favor- got 10% off. I do not think that is repeatable.

I would describe the discount I was able to get on my Targa 4 GTS as a "courtesy discount". Meaning it wasn't significant... There aren't many allocations around so far, so the dealers have pricing leverage. It is what it is.

4-6% is average. Some get slightly more; some less. It's generally based on geography.
