Default Anyone know of a GT4 spot?

I gave my car up a week before delivery. I should have kept it.

Anyone know if a spot? Even with premiums.

Thanks

^ This is like the Mafia - you can never leave.

What changed your mind to want a GT4 again?

He did give me his allocation over 4 months ago and very much appreciated. I know he was looking for one with better logistics which he eventually surrendered because I thought he was trying to get an RS.

I am intrigued that he wants the GT4 again and I hope he gets one because he has been very thoughtful to this forum.

The GT4 grows on you. My first initial test drive after driving my GT3 left me not so impressed. Then I took it out again and really started liking it. Now I love it. It really does everything well. And great for driving around town or hitting the twisties and the track for those that like to

OP i really hope you can find one, indirectly because one of your post I gave a call to Destin and 6 months later I have my beautiful GT4, I'll be on the lockout. Hope you didn't get screw over the GT3RS.

Hahahaha

I didn't. I was trying to be "reasonable" and decided having an RS and a GT4 was just over the top. I gave up the spot and then I traded my GT3 in advance for the RS.

So my garage is half empty and I'm reading Jimmy gloating about how good the Gt4 is. So now I gotta know!!!

The RS is due mid August and I'm thinking I'll replace the TTS with the GT4 I think I'm mentally ready...

Need help!

You know how it goes : folks are partial to what they own...but I'll try to give you an unbiased opinion and keep it simple. Jimmy is right,you can definitely extract more smiles per mile from the GT4. I have read many posts : some from folks like yourself that own the RS and the GT4. Some own the RS/GT4/GT3...and I haven't heard one saying that the GT4 is a disappointment. They're actually all saying that they love it!

So good luck in your search!

Good luck in your search. I have a Spyder and, although not exactly the same formula as the GT4, the cars are pretty close. The RS is incredible. A few of us went out on a drive a couple of weeks ago. I had the opportunity to drive the 991 RS for about an hour up in the mountains. When people say you can't come close to the limits on the street, believe them. It was like driving in a video game with all the assists on - nothing could shake it and it was drama free, even at high speeds for road driving. Totally different experience than the Spyder. The RS is a much more capable car, the Spyder is much more fun on the streets. I would have to assume the same will hold true for the RS/GT4 comparison.

To have a GT3RS and a GT4 in the same garage is one heck of a stable - no better combo

Jlee804, I didn't think you would have a change of heart after getting your RS allocation.

I am the other guy that jlee gave his ordered GT4 to. Beautifully spec'ed and 95% of the options I would have ordered. RY is starting to grow on me. I just got back from out of country and dropped it off at the detailer for ppf so technically I didn't even get to drive it yet.

Please help this man find a GT4! Great guy to deal with and very helpful.

He isn't looking for a GT4 in the OP but for an allocation to spec it the way he wants it.... That will be a much tougher task as the final V250 locks are happening
