Default New Carrara White GT3 RS available in Bay Area soon...

A local dealer contacted me to see if I was interested in a car he had
"coming soon" ... I'm not, but if "you" are, PM me for details ...

- Carrara White , contrast Gold
- Black Leather Seats
- Lightweight Lithium-Ion Batt
- PCCB
- Front Axle Lifting System
- Sound Package Plus
- Cupholders
- Dynamic Cornering Lights
- Floor Mats in Interior Color
- Universal Audio Interface
- Speed Yellow seat belts
- PCM 3.0 w/ Extended Navigation
- Sport Chrono Package Plus
- XM Radio

MSRP: $155,890

p.s
I am in no way affiliated with the dealer in question, merely passing along the details for the greater GT3 good.

I don't think they are going over MSRP, there are allocations available right?

H'mm that was not mentioned to me ... but then the e-mail exchange I had was short and sweet ... along the lines of:

them: interested?

me: no, call me when you have an '11 allocation...

AFIAK it is "rumored" that more allocations are either already released or are in the process of being released "soon" ...

I have now heard from 2 dealers that they expect to obtain additional allocations within a month or so ...

As I recall another RL'er recently picked up a car from another Bay Area dealer (probably the one with the worst reputation for "in denial" pricing) ... that was MSRP + $5k ...

They offered me this car at under MSRP when still incoming about 6 weeks ago when I was looking for an allocation. Not what I wanted so I passed. I think they would like to move it, so if you like it there is a deal to be made!
