Default GT3 Availability at Discount?

Just sold my 98 C2S...

Does anyone have a dealer they can refer me to that still has a GT3 spot I can configure?

Of course I am looking for a dealer that is discounting off MSRP?

Are rumors of $10K off correct?

Thanks

sounds like rumor speculation to me. I would be surprised to see any discount on one you order. If you find one on a lot and you pay cash, you may be able to deal....IMO

seal is an option, $3000 and is no longer available for order. The grey option is now atlas grey. Much darker with a navy blue hue....

Foot under

Walters Auto Sales(Riverside Ca) lists three GT3 in their inventory list.

Unfortunately, the options list reads like Michael Jacksons rap sheet.

Hint:

If you go to the Porsche dealers of N America web page, you can get a link to every Porsche dealer in North America. Once there you can navigate thru each dealers site and find their inventory of new cars. I was able to find several GT3's, and some were not burdened with a long list of oprions.

Someone at that dealership should undergo intensive Porsche heritage therapy. Those option lists, if they were ordered for stock, are criminal.

I have seen "used" '04 GT3's going for $10K under MSRP but still over $100K.
If you find a GT3 under $10K off (presuming you mean around $90K asking price) ... let me know too ... I'd like white, no options, although the thicker steering wheel did feel nice.

sjsharks, there are no 2003 GT3's, all US spec GT3 are MY2004.

sjshark, if you mean 2003 or 2004 TT getting $10k off, then the answer is 2003's. sorry that i misunderstood your question.

No problem, I have seen some of those deals also.

I have been thinking of making a wild stab at $15,000 off on one of those 2003 TT to see what happens.

sjsharks, i think 15k is not impossible. i have seen 10k off on N/A 996C2's so a bit more on TT is quite possible. won't hurt to ask?!
