For the 911ST, it all had to do with your slotted production month. In the beginning of the allocation, PCNA informed all the dealers to submit their PTS request as early as possible, so that they could try to accommodate all requests. This was all going fine until Porsche ran into supplier issues (eg. carbon pieces) and this really messed up their PTS allocations. Since some of the parts comes directly from the suppliers pre-painted, you could see why this presents a problem when certain suppliers are having quality issues.
So all of a sudden, PTS allocations starting from June onwards started to be restricted and dwindled. And since most of the PTS builds were pushed to the later production months and Porsche prioritized regular colors in the earlier months of the building schedule (eg. February to May), this is what created the shortage of PTS cars on the ST overall.
That makes sense of what has happened. Shame

Amazing combo. Similar to my wanted theme (although I was denied CXX for Weissgold wheels). Might have to have the wheels painted after delivery
I was offered an S/T today at MSRP + 60% markup from original pricing. Nothing super fancy, black + heritage, numbers, nicely optioned car. Remains to be seen if this just the start or markup can continue upwards once all the cars start landing in NA.

If leasing is required, that'll be a rough one... unlikely that they'll be able to lease that high above MSRP without a huge, risky deposit.

The way I understand leasing works is that the ADM will be included in the downpayment needed to setup the lease. So if you walk away after the 12 months lease (don't know why anyone would), you have just handed over the ADM to them...

Yeah exactly. You can be forced to "walk away" in the event of a total loss. That deposit doesn't become equity in the vehicle until you actually own it.
This dealership is owned by a guy in the Carolina’s.who owns a Lexus dealership, No other Porsche dealerships. My guess would be the owner ordered it for himself or a friend. Would be curious as how many allocations they got. This could be the only one.
I had posted a question about agreed value insurance which I am looking into.
However, as the car is leased, does agreed value insurance come into play with a lease vehicle as it is owned by Porsche NA for the next 11 months?
Thanks for the replies!
Also, I’d like to introduce 911 S/T 0942. Shore Blue Metallic with Heritage interior.
100 miles in, wonderful car. So much different than
my Touring and Wing car.
