From what I have heard those that are on the 992.1 waitlist will simply roll over to the 992.2 list.

Porsche marketing has done a great job convincing people that the t is somehow a “special” or “limited” car so people are willing to spend tons of money specifying them to the gills.

Not really.

Alternative view is that Porsche gives you a really great bundle price for all the performance options that you'd want on a base anyway, without forcing you into S or GTS money.

Your assumption is that everyone buys a stripper and everyone wants all the standard “performance options” that are bundled or forced on you with a T. I would not get several of those “wanted” performance options on a base or an S if I ordered one. Your argument only makes sense if you buy a stripper T which is the way to go as Malba 2366 and others have mentioned. I would rather have a base with a MT and a very few specific options I want than a T with bundled options…….. some which are good in my opinion and some….well not so much.

ipse dixit

malba2366

it may be a good value in default configuration, but not when you spec it out into s/gts pricing territory.

^ This ^ except, I was told that if I refuse to take delivery of 992.1, I will lose my position in the queue and I will go to the back of the queue of the 992.2

Understandable that different dealers have differing approaches.
Ive refused 2 allocation offers on .1 as I want a .2 and my dealer had no problem and assures me Im still #1....whatever that means.
I know that after 5 years, the list for .1's is probably pretty accurate yet not naive enough to not think there is still going to be a shadow list for .2 initially.

I feel like all the folks that are #1 on their dealer's list are on Rennlist. Never heard anyone being #2.

The person #1 on the list is probably the first person on the salesman’s mind when the allocation drops and he is dialing for dollars along with all the other salesmen.

ctdubl07

There might be some truth to that in my case....I got call when the Nov allocations dropped. Im waiting on a 4s which they did not get but they did offer me T and GTS slot for Feb.

malba2366

Lol...what people don't realize is that there are so many dynamics at play. Trade ins, ADMs, which salesperson is next due for an allocation etc.

I just came back from our dealer here is Saudi Arabia

They confirmed to me that they will start accepting orderes for 992.2 late march or early may the latest.

And of course they told me I will be #1 🤣

He also confirmed it will be S, 4S and Turbo first

And the turbo only will be hybrid
