Default 911 C4 GTS Allocation Available in Pennsylvania ** GONE **

*** 3/18/2025 UPDATE: Allocation gone. Dealership had no trouble finding a new customer ***


Due to potential tariff concerns, I am giving up my 911 C4 GTS allocation (found through a broker; I live in Kansas):
-- current order freeze date: 04/25/25
-- estimated arrival date: 07/18/25

The 911 C4 GTS Allocation is for: MSRP + $5,000 ADM

Given I'm out a $2,500 broker fee, I hope someone on this forum takes advantage of this. I will try to obtain a new allocation in the future after the dust settles on the EU tariffs.

Good Luck!


P.S. If someone from Rennlist does take this allocation, please post here.

May I ask why you are cancelling now and losing your broker fee? Although the tariffs threat looms, things are fluid and it may entirely be possible that tariffs go in and then come off a week later. There also is no visibility in terms of how Porsche will handle the tarrif. Pass through to customer, absorb it, absorb for ordered cars, etc. curious as I am also in the same box with an allocation though now past my freeze date

Given my sales contract (and I believe the laws in PA), if a tariff is applied, and I therefore decide I don't want the car, I would have lost my deposit.

Part of the reason I am posting here is so someone can get an allocation without a broker's fee.

Wow! After all the troublesome threads you’ve created you’re giving up!?? I can almost guarantee there will not be a 25% tariff applied to Porsches.

I'm now looking at CPO 911s to buy before any tariff impact on the used market.

Worst case another 8%, go watch the news from this weekend. They're not hiding the news. EU can't survive without access to the USA market. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent talks matter of fact about the EU and auto tariffs. VW AG is in so much trouble they'll eat the 8% just to keep afloat!! They have no choice. The EV market is DEAD! SUV is floating almost dead! 911 is where they make money. I feel bad for anyone paying a broker fee and tack on the ADM! OMG! Not many takers for that bad deal!!

thanks, makes me nervous a bit. Dealer never sent over a sales contract. All was given was an allocation with a build sheet showing my name and commission number. Deposit was taken on a generic dealer authorization and makes no mention of what it’s for or refundable/non-refundable

Given how crazy the 911 market is, the dealer probably already gave that allocation to someone else by now.

taking a page from BMW, my guess (and hope) is that - if the tariffs stick, Porsche will grandfather any ordered cars prior to the tariff announcement date and then for X amount of months after, until the situation either stabilizes or they come up with some sort of policy or formula on how to apply prospectively.

I had someone I've spoken to in the past, who's also owned Porsche's etc., reach out to me and offer 159k for my 2022 GTS with 4 years of total warranty left on it (also loves the color combo etc)...because he's had such issues securing a new one, and is also worried about pricing/tariffs. NGL, I considered it...still considering it lol. Who knows if this tariff idiocy goes away or not, but in meantime, I def see it helping the 992 used market a bit.

I have a 992.2 GTS going into production on 4/14. The car is at MSRP and my dealer told me not to worry as he would take care of me. I in no way think he would eat a 25% Tax. If I walk I get my deposit back. I’ll wait and see what happens. Since 1970 I’ve owned around 27 Porsches. Maybe I’ll try a Z06.🤣

That is something that BMW has announced? Any reference?
