What is speculation when allocations would become available for the 992.2 GT3 Touring.

Just wondering when I should start offering "Favors" to the dealerships :-)

What favors, it's going to be set by the market. Pay ADM or buy many stupid cars that depreciate rapidly and pay less ADM. Dealers are no longer leaving anything on the table because of perceived loyalty or favors in the major markets at least...

I am well aware of the process, I just pay ADM, so I don't have to buy cars I don't want... The Favors was just to be funny...

Really wanting to know when allocations would drop, trying to plan out a few things with my current car collection...

Not necessarily. There are still good dealers out there. I for example got a Winged GT3 allocation at sticker after purchasing 2 other 911's over the past 2 years. Granted, I went from a base C2 to a C2S to a GT3 in 2 years. But I wanted every car, not like they made me buy a Taycan or something. And I got to upgrade as allocations became available. I chose to trade in each time (not a requirement) and I lost $8k on the C2 after 10 months and 6k miles and ~$6500 on the C2S after 7 months and 5k miles. I've been very happy with my dealer from an allocation standpoint. So it basically has costed me $750-850/mo in deprecation to drive a 911. Well worth it IMO.

I agree, there are good dealers, and your scenario is the perfect case from a cost standpoint. However, for me, life is short, and they may not make N/A GT3 in the future, so I just pay the ADM to skip the line and been driving them for the last 10 years.

I'd assume that the ADMs for 992.2 Tourings will be $50k-$75k over and they'll probably release allocations next year for delivery in late 2025.

Nice to hear that there is/are good dealer/s out in the tri-state area. The hardest part is getting in with a good dealer, especially if they are a smaller volume dealer, but once you do it makes life less complicated in terms of getting GT allocations.

Most likely little correlation but the first wave of buyers of .2 base and GTS carreras on here have been reporting minimal ADM if at all.

I think the question is that when is the launch of the 992.2 GT3 ? Touring package came at the same time for 992

usctrojanGT3

My guess is late this year or early next year but US cars won't arrive until fall/winter 2025.

My guess is $75-100k in most major metro markets (Houston/Dallas/etc), $100-150k in "premiere" markets (Miami/LA/etc). Winged cars will be ~$25k lower
Of course these should soften a bit with time but initially they will be quite high

Yeah, and they then sold the C2 und C2S with loss, just so You can be happy, right? Are you out of Your mind or smth? Smh xD

PTS

Are dealerships charities or businesses? You missed his point. The dealer gave him a fair trade in value for his C2 and C2S, to which I'm sure they then sold them for market value to someone else. That's how every car dealership on the planet operates. There is supposed to be a delta between trade in value and market value otherwise they cannot make money on used cars.

Good Porsche dealers still exist, I'm lucky to have one as well. It is interesting how much it upsets others that don't have a relationship with one, to which they then assume none can exist otherwise

BE-EB-992

Used C2's or C2S' never traded so close to retail, always 20k or more below. That would not be a good Porsche dealer, but a dumb one. Which leads me to the conclusion that it's all talk.

There is just my experience....the cars that I traded in to my dealer were marked up by about 10%-15% above what they offered in on the trade in. I benefited by 8.35% as that's my sales tax credit in credit so that shrinks the delta for me.
