Got similar info from two dealers, one in Atlanta and one in Chicago.

Not a Base but awaiting allocation on a Carrera T. Deposit in December and dealer said 6 Months to a year.

I inquired Oct 18, received word of new allocations Nov 22, went in on Nov 23 and submitted my updated build and deposit to lock it in. Received my Track My Dream welcome email Nov 25. Freeze date was pulled forward to Jan 10, likely delivery early April for this one. Before I got this allocation, I was on the list at another dealership in the DFW area with what will likely be a mid-2025 allocation.

I'm quite glad the local dealers I've encountered don't take a deposit until allocation is actually given.

I'm first on my dealers S list and 2nd on the GTS list. I wish they'd announce the S so we can move along with this thing.

there are... in cartagena yellow or shade green, nothing remotely close to my optimal spec was available, closest was one in NYC but was still only maybe a 70% match on my option list.

Been checking Porsche Finder. Nothing close enough to my desired spec. Not in a rush for this one.

I went to my local dealer yesterday to inquire about an allocation. Gave them my build and the GM told me probably late summer or early fall, which is perfect for me!

Oh sorry, they said for delivery and this is for "just" a C2. So I was told an allocation (and then they would take a deposit) in early spring or so.

Nothing yet. My SA reach out on Friday last week to get my build code, but was told there still isn't an allocation available (for me) and i'd still be looking at Fall delivery.
