Quick Question...I sent an e-mail to my dealer asking about getting on their list for the new GT3 ( Yes, I know/knew it's a long shot)...I know some of you have a deposit down and are ready to spec your cars out...well, here's the response I got..

"I believe we will start taking deposits in a few weeks and I dont have the order guide yet, but will have it soon. Will you be in town the next few weeks?
... "


I figured the response would have been laughter, but this sounds pretty encouraging..??

I don't think there will be a problem this time around getting one.

No waiting and over MSRP this time...
I am 2nd in line, but will wait for the RS, although tempting.

My dealer says likely no RS since the new one has the wing, light flywheel, no sunroof etc.
I do not agree, the wide body exisists and Porsche will find a way to make $$ with it.

Likemystoppie?

Believe you me; Porsche is paying CLOSE attention at the interest level/demand.

I think you're going to be surprised.


Regardless- my Boss has issued a direct order to myself and Chad; "no deposits until we 100% allocation and ensure our local clients are aware first".

Which puts me in a pissy position; most of MY clients are my fellow RL peeps.

wtf do I do then?

But it's his business. I'm his employee. I get it. lol

Trak,

Did anyone pay over MSRP for a GT3 last time..only thought RS's did?

Many people paid over for regular GT3s....not me by sheer luck since I was not on a list anywhere...but plenty did.

That crap really pisses me off, i went for an RS cash in hand and was told i didn't buy enough porsches from them to be considered. The RS's go to the highest bidder of our preferred customers. Sorry.

So i wrote a letter to PCNA and got no response.

I'll wager a dollar that everyone who wants the new GT3 will get one at MSRP or less!

1$ too rich for my blood

my dealer expects no more than 3 cars. They have never sold a new car for over msrp. They took my money yesterday.

I am not at all offended that a dealer would give a priority to regular customers and to sell them at MSRP. I think that is good business for the dealer and fair consideration for the regular customer which encourages him to return for more cars later on. If I went to my regular dealer and he told me it was highest bidder wins, why would I ever go back?

I went to my regular dealer! I'm not going back. I called my old dealer in NY and they were happy to help me.

Any idea when they arrive in the US?

Yes, that's what it says in Porsche's press release - October.
