Unless you know exactly what you want I would get the first thing that is available. Among your model choices you can’t go wrong.

I however, do not know the detailed nuances between the three. I know these cars are in high demand and I am in no desire to pay over MSRP. I am requesting your help if you can help identify any literature so I can expand my understand and if you can point me to your trusted sales person at a Chicagoland dealer. My initial thought is get a better understanding of these cars and cross compare with maybe a MB GT and move forward to request an allocation for delivery in 2025.

Please be kind - hopefully I am not making a fool of myself.

TIA
im guessing your probably not going to get a car now for less than msrp. Wait list are at least a year or 2 out. You might have better luck finding a low mileage used one that has been certified. We bought a used 21 with warranty till 27. Couldn’t be more pleased. Happy hunting.

Isringhausen in Springfield is not a bad option.

I highly recommend reading reviews (road tests) of each version in Road and Track, Motortrend, and Car and Driver. I'd stay away from the countless reviews on line. I think those three sources are by far the best sources of information. The first step is deciding what you want, and you need to understand what each variation offers. It's time to study and that requires reading.

Porsche Exchange- I have always been treated great and have bought multiple 911s from them. They will lean towards locals, first, like most Dealerships practice.

Sean Kashani has treated me well at Loeber in Lincolnwood. MSRP delivered last year for a C2S. PM me if you want his contact info.

Or just a troll thread. I am stunned by the number of serious responses.

I found Hubert Banasiuk at Loeber Porsche in Lincolnwood to be very nice and helpful.

As far as being especially knowledgeable about the different variants, I'm not sure that I would go with a salesman with that question. Best to know the differences yourself by doing your own research.

^ I want to be fair, but he will gun for as much of an ADM as possible. Good guy, but he tried to get me to buy a Turbo S last year with a $100k markup!!
