HELP GT3 RS
got bad news today Rector Porsche will only get 2 gt3rs. And with my luck Im number 3 
. I gave them my deposit since the start of the year expecting to get one for MSRP. Until today I got the bad news. I need help 
. Does anyone have a spot that they are not taking ? I was so sad after waiting and knowing of getting one for sure now Im stuck with none. Pls help a fellow member buy his dream 
thanks

it will be hard to find an open RS spot now.
perhaps secure a GT3 for the moment.
i drove a GT3 today, it's quite a car. you should sell your Gt3 now and wait for a 997.

Same here - I made the switch to the GT3 (in white with no extra cost) for a May delivery.

Take mooty's advice...either switch to a 997GT3 or wait until one goes for sale in the pre-owned market...finding an open allocation is like finding an untapped oil reserve!

Jeff calm down. It isn't meant as a comment that has anything to do with you. I was on the phone last night with a car broker friend in Houston who told me that one of his contacts (not sure if it's a dealer or another broker) has two at $25K over. He wants one personally, but had told the guy that he wouldn't pay more than $10K over.

order a GT3 and be happy you did.
After being told the same thing (paid deposit also) I ordered an April build GT3. not only did I save 30k, it will be a great car!
White
PCCB
xenon lights
116k

I talked with the General Manager at the Porsche dealer in Chicago as I am having problems with my local dealer on my GT3 RS and Porsche advised me that they have three allocations. My dealer is playing the we need to add a fair market value game with me now that I can actually order one.
You will love this,
The Chicago dealer said they are taking names and emails for the present. When a car comes in, they will contact everyone and the auction/ bidding will start at $ 40K over a loaded up MSRP car. He said that they fully expect to get $ 60K over their MSRP at auction. I apologized for wasting his time.

edit: just sent them a nice "how do you do?" via their website customer interest form.....boycotts are indicated for dealers that do this type of thing; there are many to go to that do not employ such practices
