Default Should I put a deposit right now for 992.1?

Hi,
I just got an 2024 March allocation for C4 GTS (992.1) with PTS, my SA told me I have to make a decision in one day since there is a time constraint for GTS allocations.

I already told him I would like to get it but I have not put my deposit yet (too late today). However, I am getting buyer's remorse and think I should not make a decision in a rush.

What's your opinion about putting down the deposit and get locked in or wait to see what 992.2 brings then decides (probably will lost this allocation)?

thanks in advance

GTS without ADM? I'd take it. Bird in hand...

I would take it in a heartbeat. Cars are hard to get right now.

I would also take it... and I had the same thoughts.

First year of a new power train ? A bag of snakes... NFW ? Your GTS will be the last, pure ICE train out of town.

Full disclosure... I have a late 23 MT C2 GTS and I love it. So happy I pulled the trigger.

I’d take it unless you’re going to waste the PTS slot on something stupid like Azzuro Thetys.

Gulf blue is sweet. Interior? In fact post the build sheet.

here is the link: https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PRULXJM9
Black interior with orange stitching.
I am actually debating between orange and yellow stitching since I got yellow seat belt, tachometer, and SC clock, yellow would make a match.
Also deciding if I should go with Aero kit, the wings looks cool.

Now I’m curious why the Canadian configurator allows for PTS but the USA version does not.

I personally would get the Wing if you decide on the MY24. It completes the look of your build IMO. Aero kit was on stop sale when I ordered or I would of loved to get it.
As far as ordering now or waiting for a 992.2 only you can answer that question. I currently own a 2023 that'll be traded in on my 2024 order. I'm waiting to see the changes and updates on 992.2 and hear personal reviews before I pull the trigger on one . I'm sure the 992.2 will be a fantastic car but so is the 992.1, either way you can't go wrong.

Do it!

Fix the orange stitching/yellow gauges contrast (to me) though.
