i'm a bit conflicted, so could use some insight:

i was offered a Targa GTS allocation at $10k ADM. seems fair? not sure if i'm going to take it. if someone wants it more than me, lmk...that may help me rationalize passing on the allocation lol

The GTS is a tough decision - because the .2 GTS is surely going to rise in price more than the differential is today, the GTS is clearly moving up trim with the .2 car. And there is also the possibility of being a "beta tester" with the .2 GTS because of the hybrid. Those two things should be factored in when turning down a .1 GTS allocation, if its a GTS you really want. And the Targa GTS an even harder pass up, because the Targa in general is a hard allocation to get. Maybe you could negotiate and get something for that $10K - service contract, wheel and tire insurance, some dealer installed options (PPF, ceramic, accessories, etc) - try and get something in exchange.
