Default Allocation update

I'm #1 in line at my dealer for a GT4 (behind the 918 owners who got the first round of allocations). Dealer said today that they should know about the second round of allocations on May 1st for whatever that is worth. Good luck to all those waiting to hear!

Interesting. I talked with my sales manager this weekend and he didn't have any updates. He continued to say that he was very confident that I would get a car, but that he couldn't guarantee anything bc he didn't have my allocation in hand (I'm #2 in their list). I have faith in them. They've been an amazing dealership to deal with in all aspects, so I'll continue to wait. It would be nice to get some good news this week though!

Confirmed with a dealer in New Jersey, they should be getting word about the rest of the 2016 allocations in the next few days. Good luck to all of those still waiting!

I was told the same thing ('met the sales contest') by my dealer and would be receiving a GT4 allocation.

My dealer in NE just got 2 more today so 4 total for 2016. I was #3 on the list but won't didn't like the uncertainty after round 1 so bought a 997.2 gt3.

My dealer has gotten 13 allocations thus far (more than they were expecting), which as of a few weeks ago moves me up to #7 on their list; I got on the list 2 days after the car was officially announced. My SA says she expects my allocation to be a Dec/Jan build for Feb/Mar delivery. Fingers crossed!
