I hope there will be. My dealer indicated they were returning deposits for anyone without an allocation.

US GT3 production typically comes in 2 model year increments (years 3 and 4 and 6 and 7) of a 7-year generation. This implies MY2022 and MY2023 for US 992.1.

Everything built after summer holiday 2022 should already be a MY2023 and it could potentially last until beginning of summer holiday 2023.

The numbers posted above via the Corvette forum are not encouraging at all though. Looking at the MY23 cars, most of what is stated as 'planned' production are cars that were once MY22 allocations that spilled over for MY23 (I am one such). So taking those out of the equation leaves very little 'new' allocations if those numbers are to be trusted (allegedly source is legit)...

Lol. A strong opinion is still one person's subjective point of view.

My strong opinion is that no sports car for the road should be an automatic, no matter how good it is at shifting for you.

Totally agree about an opinion being totally subjective.....and also respect your opinion. It IS totally subjective...or as they say....'to each their own.' toast ya back!

If these numbers are accurate, goes to show you how much more demand there is vs. 4 years ago... wonder how much of that demand is attributed to flippers and opportunists.

GT cars are products that "why wouldn't you buy it if it's available at sticker" (reminds of allocated whiskeys). Even if you don't really want a GT car, you can resale it easily and probably for a small profit if you want to get rid of it.

Thanks for posting. Of the 2070 GT3 Classics for 22/23, what is the MT/PDK breakdown? And if you have this for 18/19, that would be good to have, too.

These totals seem extremely low!

Finally, I received a verbal confirmation of my touring allocation. If I can do a PTS, this is my build:
Your Porsche Code http://www.porsche-code.com/PPY38UJ3

I was told a January allocation, but may be delayed for PTS

Happy Days😁🥳

I understand there is no more PTS for at least MY23.

Try and see one in person if you can.
I noticed that Shark Blue is a lot "brighter" than in photos when I saw it the first time at my local dealer.

Anyone know if there will be a 992.1 GT3 MY24 based on historical production cycles?
