Yeah the 4RS that was similarly spec'd Blue on Blue with Weisach suffered the Reserve not met fate due to lack of desire.

I was offered an GT3RS allocation for a September build. Dealer says it’s a non pts build, any one know if we submit a pts build what would happen? Would it just be pushed. Since it’s MY24 I’m wondering if worth the gamble

PTS slots are October forward (but not unlimited). They won't accept a build with PTS if it isn't available. There's no gamble. Take it and enjoy or pass and wait for another window.

pts is incredibly limited indeed. Mine is supposed to be December delivery so October sounds right.

I was told I can have pts when it opens. Also told I can take this allocation then trade in for pts version. Decisions 😆

I didn't read that he is getting two allocations, so not an option.

Yeah, he could lose big time....PCNA might think he's some kind of flipper since he is buying 2 of the same cars and yank both of the allocations from him.

1. PTS is not rare

things that make you go hmmm…

vin achieved "on schedule"
manufacturing start date remains unchanged at May 15, 2023
manufacturing "complete" date moved from May 25, 2023 to May 30, 2023 - hmmmmm

in the end it makes no difference - Porsche is "constrained" on euro-delivery time slots for all customers - and my delivery date remains August 31 @ Leipzig - so honestly it doesn't really matter

gonna be hard know the car is "ready" and just sitting waiting for the delivery appointment time to come - but I guess I'll be ok - these are such awful problems I think I need a go-fund-me to relieve my pain and suffering.

Dealer just offered me a 3rs allocation but I have to buy the Manthey racing package. They recently became a Manthey reseller I guess. Meeting with them tomorrow to see the details. Said I was going to skip this round but it is intriguing.

Not if it's the same Porsche dealer facilitating the deals. I 100% understand the point. But if the build period and deliveries are far enough apart it shouldn't be a problem.
