Dealer must have a specific GT4 allocation…can’t just take an existing Cayman and turn it into a GT4.

I'm sorry also, but if you have 250K, I don't think adding 25K-50K is that much of a stretch to get into a bona fide supercar instead.
*********After all, we are fundamentally talking about paying 25-50K ADM!!!!!! Or more even. People are willing to waste their money on that--at least you could spend it appropriately on a better option and not overpay above an MSRP which is absurd.

What are you talking about? You can walk into a dealer and spec a brand new EVO RWD new with an MSRP of 210k and 40k of options including ceramic brakes, carbon buckets, and plenty of other stuff. They're nearing the end of 2022 allocations but production will continue into 2023 model year

I have 2 friends with mclarens and they’ve been nightmares with quality and reliability. No need to convince me I can care-less.
The decision of debate was a huracan evo, some might get lucky and go buy one for 230-250-270k new depending on how optioned but in my location there are none, unless you want to pay up.

Great post.
One question - I had heard that the GT4 this time around has no limits whatsoever. The way the GM described it was if they have an order for a GT4, they can make any Cayman or Boxster volume allocation a GT4. For the GT3/RS - they can't switch with other 992 models??

It's also not true that any Cayman or Boxster allocation can be converted to a GT4. GT4 allocations to dealers are distinct from any other 718 model allocation, including 718 Spyder or 718 GTS 4.0.

Glad you were one of the lucky ones that were satisfied with your Mclaren consider yourself lucky.

Its all good man. Enjoy your GT3. There is no substitute apparently. At any price.
And no- the discussion was Huracan. The Evo part was just put in after the fact after the argument that you can’t get a huracan for 250k was debunked.

The 718 GT4 has no production limits only in that it's not a series numbered car. However they are extremely limited in actual production, probably more so than even the 992 GT3. The largest model year to date for US 718 GT4s was 2020 with only 763 US GT4 units built. Compare that to the fact that Porsche built about 2100 US 981 GT4s for the lone 2016 model year. But for the 718 GT4, Porsche has built even fewer - well under 2000 US GT4 units total combined production across 3 model years to date.
It's also not true that any Cayman or Boxster allocation can be converted to a GT4. GT4 allocations to dealers are distinct from any other 718 model allocation, including 718 Spyder or 718 GTS 4.0.

Wow guys. Many of you go spend ****ing 1 million dollars with porsche, and then talk **** about guys who spend $25k ADM to get a GT3. You categorically can't(well, shouldn't) bitch about value if you literally spend many hundreds of thousands/million of dollars with a dealer to get a "MsRp AlLoCaTiOn".
All this value talk from people who definitely make risky/questionable purchases on other stuff in their lives lmfao.

What makes a car a supercar to me is the experience it brings the driver. The GT3 is up there with just about any supercar I've driven in terms of the experience. You're discrediting the GT3 saying it's not a supercar

You can’t do this in SoCal area, I actually looked into it. They don’t have allocations or you have to pay a premium, same bs as the gt3. Based off of autotrader used *EVO* market this seems to be accurate. At the end of the day the huracan just doesn’t do it for me. I’m sure it’s a great car though.
