Not at all cool with it, but doesn't mean one makes up incorrect stories to replace facts which are readily available ..

Anyway, I'm getting a manual, but that's another story.

Y’all can use my Oregon address. I’ll keep your 992 GT3 Touring until you can pick it up. I’ll even run that engine in for ya. :-)

They will sell every last manual GT car that they want in every other state and country in the world. Again stop letting the tail of one stupid state wag the company dog. That was because you didn't know who was the tail and who was the dog.
They’re not making a special version for the state bud. You spelled California wrong.

Literally, no one says "Cali" @TexasPorschelover

I missed something, why can't you buy out of state and then reg in California?

When you bring an out of state car into CA for registration they check for the CA compliant sticker which they will not have.

interesting if you're buying from Florida lets say, and then the dealer can't sell your manual allocation to you because you have a california address. I do wonder to what extent porsche is required to police this, or whether outside of some basic guidelines, they will let some chicanery happen. I know A LOT of people already working angles on this.. fun times, fun times.
this has been confirmed with multiple sources that no order originating with a California dealer can have the manual transmission. so the ambassador is yanking your chain.

This may not be breaking news, but for those of you holding out hope (like myself) that orders already submitted would be fixed in a short time with California HP, time to accept our PDK.
love this !
