911ST
#812
If a Dealer has 10+ people on a list (with deposits) for the ST, will the dealer forego ADM on its "best" customers at the top of the list (excluding VIPs) if customers at the bottom of the list are willing to pay $50k - $100k ADM? I suspect many, if not most Dealers will collect ADM given the demand.

With the 911R, the number of non-VIP’s who got an allocated car was exceptionally small.

The R was a vastly different car than anything at that time, heck it was different from the 991.2 Touring that came after it. Back then the SMF was a thing, they were offering a manual when none was available, the HP delta between a GT3 and 3RS was also noteworthy, now they are practically the same and obviously they can't get much more out of that motor.
I hope they have something in their back pocket that differentiates the SC from the Touring more than 10kg and a plaque ... heck if Exclusive can come up with something singularly different like the SC, I trust that GT can do likewise.

I'm talking from a driving dynamics pov, not aesthetics and plaques.

All of the little things we are expecting from the ST that differentiate it from the touring are exactly the types of things that are important to me. A little more track aero, carbon doors with real doorhandles, slight bump in power, slight weight reduction, double bubble roof, special interior. All the things I wish my touring had. It will be different enough and appeal to plenty for it to be a success. I guess you could say that about all 911s these days but the ST has a perfect recipe in my opinion.

If all they’d done on the SC was bubble roof, snazzy interior, on a GTS engine/drivetrain it would not be a thing.
It better at least have the frunk rad with some bespoke aero package to make the rear work with the front RS bits like the R did with the special rear diffuser.
It’s either a 3RS Touring or it isn’t is all I’m saying.
