Lightbulb End of Non-LE GT3RS Series Production

Locked in my build order for a December production 3RS mid-November. Dealer mentioned something about the production schedule back then which suggests the end of series production for the "regular" RS... Apparently PAG Germany is not accepting 3RS orders for Jan/Feb production. As far as the dealer's concerned, the earliest production slot after December may be March/April 2011. Even then, they don't have the build options and pricing fro PAG for those slots. All seems to corroborate with the rumored end of series production and the coming of a "swan-song" RS...

I have got a GTSRS build slot for January with any final spec changes to be with OPC by December 6.

That I'm in Asia (HK) may be a factor as well... what color are you getting? I thought I was gonna get a bone-stock car but ended up with a fair bit of options in the end... I suck at resisting the temptation of checking those boxes... LOL...

March/April points to maybe a Geneva unveiling more than likely with orders to start immediately.

My turbo came in at $170K US without PCCB and without adding deviated stitching. So that was about over $35K in options.

Getting a dark grey/red decals car with shedloads of carbon and alcantara along with the usual boring stuff to make it a daily driver, as far as I can in the UK (currently -5c and snow here....).

Cost is GBP £123.4k. I'll let you guys in the US do the currency conversion.

You agreed to "123.4" ... that's a fun number, but I would have kept that 3.4 ...

Without the options list (or including VAT versus state sales tax in the US) it's hard to say what's fair. If that GBP number is "parked at home, all expenses paid" then it's about the equivalent to the US cost for a loaded 3.8 RS in California.
