In this round a C4 allocation did not occur for me despite allegedly being on the top of the list.
From my SA:
"... We just got our allocation through August and it was very light. No 911 4. Only a couple of 911’s period. In two months we will get more allocation of July and August. ..."

Just hang in there. I had just about given up on this whole process but it finally happened after 6 months - I've been "top of the list" the last 3 months. Just wait, it will come for you too.

Reading all the recent postings, it is clear that this round of allocations was skewed to the C2X models. So I think your SA is being honest, it's basically been all C2 on here, no one has reported much else.

I didn't decide to jump to the dream car until this January. I've not been waiting very long compared to everyone else, so, more patience is required, that's all.

Just thought I would give you an update and my experience. I know everyone has been waiting for a long time, reading all these post many have been on the list for 6 mo's or more. My SA always said to me that getting a allocation was a crap shoot. Luckily for me I picked the right car, (C2S cab) I put my order in on Jan 30th and got my allocation on Friday! I know people will hate for my luck. Asked my SA how they did overall in this latest round of allocations. Told me that is was light and basically all 911 base or s. He still has a bunch of people who didnt get cars. He also told me some other interesting things, btw this rep was been with porsche for 30 years and has some real connections with Porsche
1) was told to expect a price increase about 12-15% for 2023
2) said a lot of dealers take orders but never put them into the Porsche system as a demand orders, they just hold them and wait for the allocation to come in, seems strange but some dealers put in demand orders for what THEY want and then sell it
3) he heard also heard they they have stopped all the electric car production for a bit, hence why I think this allocation became available.
3) they have completely stopped taking an orders on turbo's, he doesn't believe this cars will ever be built or of it is it will be in very small nubers
4) a lot of options are being pulled off orders, most of them are performance based options,, brakes and such. None of it affected my order.
5) I really liked the fact he went through my order and actually pulled things off that he said was not worth it or based on how I was going to use the car I would never need that particular option.
sorry to ramble , I know people on this site love all kinds of information and facts so a couple more about my car/order
1) ordered from my local dealer ( he would only take orders if you were local, no out of state orders) mid size dealer in a mod size east coast town
2) ordered a C2S Cab , manual transmission
. Black/tan total options added $8,900 so definitely did not go crazy on the option side.
3) MSRP, no ADM
4) just booked my Porsche driving exprence in Atlanta. Going in May with a group of buddies. What's nice is one of the cars is a S manual so I will get to learn how to really drive the car and transmission as intended by Porsche. My SA said that this is the best $500 you will ever spend, said it is truly the only way to really learn about and how to drive the car, esp if you are new to the brand.
congrats to everyone who got a spot on this latest round and everyone else, hang in there it will happen.

Given inflation around the globe and increased supply chain costs (ie. Being unable to do wiring harnesses cheaply in Ukraine, higher metals costs, etc), I wouldn’t be surprised to see a larger than usual bump in price for the 23MY.

In my info from my SA he said: "It seems that the most effected vehicle will be the Macan."
This was mixed into our conversation on supply chain and Ukraine.
If there's a 10% bump, I don't know what I will do. I was trying to stay under $130K. Do I want to spend more for what is really a trophy?
Admittedly, this would be one awesome trophy!!!

I need help getting an allocation for a GTS cabriolet. I’ve been on a waiting list since Oct with one dealer. When a GTS cab allocation was given to the dealer in Nov/early Dec, I was told it had to be given to someone who was ahead of me. That I was behind someone was news to me at that time. I was then told that it should come through in the next round being late Jan/Feb. Then that became late Feb/early March. I heard yesterday (after me reaching out to the dealer) that they didn’t get the allocation and I’ll have to keep waiting.
I’m a super easy customer… I’ve got the build designed and will pay cash. The dealer is making money for simply taking an order.
So after waiting for almost 6 months, I’m now feeling naive for putting my eggs in this one basket. I have no duplicate orders across other dealers. Is that foolish?
I live in California, but don’t mind buying from a dealer out of state. Will pay MSRP but not with an ADM.
Can anyone give me any advice, or point me to a good dealer that can make this happen and not attempt to gauge me.
thanks
Michael

I’ve only received 2 thus far and have really only local customers on the list. Short supply on all 911 lately, but especially GTS
