No brainer on which of those 2 that I'd choose. The S/T is the 992 version of the 991R, a higher level Touring.

So other than 918 owners, how many per dealership are we thinking?

1/2/3?

safe to presume that the 992.2 GT3 will have this tranny

Im sure it depends on 918 VIP's, turn rate of 911's sold. We're a dealership that sells under 200 per year so we're smaller in size.

I know all store that are "in good standing" with Porsche will get at least 1, so that's very nice for some of the smaller stores that never get any of the cool stuff, like we used to.

Excited for this one.

Jason, when will you find out how many y'all are getting and do you know when those allocations will be locking, etc?

Glad to hear that all dealers in good standing will get one, including the small dealers. I'm sure the bigger dealers will get 2-3 since the US will get probably 500-600 cars.

If it is a Spring 2024 car, my assumption is The VIPS will start seeing allocations pretty early in the 4th quarter. I dont believe we will see normal allocations until mid to end of Q1 next year.

EDIT: Website looks like only 0.2s faster than GT3 with manual in 0-100kph (62 mph). That's not more than you'd expect with 15hp and 35kg advantage. So, not sure about gearing. Also, I can see now from video that it has GT3 size tires, not RS...
Ratios are different from GT3. Confirmed through my SA.
