This beauty was on the truck in front of my Lexus GX 550 that was shipped to me today.

Wow surprising! Just tried to use Chrome to check V Status (previously V200) and saw my freeze status get pulled in by almost 2 months! Previously was 9/11 and upon checking today it locked already on 7/17.

With all the production delays with vendors, carbon door shortages, etc .... Shocking to see milestones move in rather than push out!

Well just like someone who switched from whiskey (gt3rs) to tequilla (gt4) and said they weren’t going to drink whiskey (gt3rs) ever again and stick to tequilla (gt4) from here on out….I specced and ordered a 25 gt3rs like a true Porsche addict and totally lied to myself and everyone around me lol

Life is fun guys, variety is the spice of life, and if I’m not trying new things are we really ever growing?

looks like I’ll be joining the club in a few months. Plan is to try it out for 18-24 months, hopefully pile on maybe 10k miles until I go 992.2 gt3 manual. Wish me luck, I’m sure it will be fun and different and exciting

Congrats, were you able to get it for MSRP?

Thank you, not exactly but very very reasonable and they’ll adjust it only down depending on the market when it arrives. I’ve kind of realized my last gt3rs I sold 3 years later for 25 over and paid 25 over, my gt4 now I’d get for probably 10-15 over and paid less than that, so I’ll pay a small enough adm I’m not gonna get my teeth kicked in like people paying 100 over. Trojan I’ve come to the realization me paying 25 and 7500 over and selling them for that or more over is the same as just trading with dealers sticker for sticker lol

I mean I fully realize these cars will be sticker in short order as they’ve made a million of them and there’s no trunk and it’s highly unusable.

that being said I’ll drive this car almost everyday because I can’t stand expensive cars sitting like
my scud. The trick with the last 3rs (which I hear the new one is more comfy) was drive it 99%+ of the time and you’ll forget how comfortable other cars are as it’s all you know. My issue last time was I’d hop in my old m4 and it felt like getting into a Cadillac and then I wouldn’t drive my gt3rs for a week for a break

anyways, see you at the racetrack soon!!!

Yeah that is what my SA has been telling me that Porsche is consistently locking codes months in advance to address shortages. Out of curiosity, was your build a PTS build?

Heard it's common to see freeze dates shift 1 or 2 weeks but even my SA was surprised that it got pulled in by 2 months. My delivery date got pulled in accordingly from mid Dec to early Nov as well. Best case scenario of course.

Standard white color for my spec. Non-PTS

Hopefully they don’t suddenly lock my order. I still have no idea if I’m going with white or Guards Red.

Is yours a 2024 or a 2025?

2025

Happened to me. Mine locked one month early. I was on the fence about a few things and asked my SA to reach out and see if I could make a final change. They made the changes and it opened up my freeze date by a week. I didn't make any more changes so it stuck, just waiting on a production date now. This is a non PTS car

While I'm happy it locked early, in hopes of an earlier production date, it would've been nice to know that it was happening. Making last minute decisions doesn't help out, so I eat half of that.

I'm surprised - pleasantly surprised! Congrats. If you have the money, sometimes it's ok to indulge.

My sales advisor checked the system and told me that my freeze date moved up about two weeks from 9/9 to 8/21. Glad I asked!

I just took delivery of a white RS. VERY happy.

That looks amazing! and my exact current spec with the exception of WP. Love those wheels!
