Dumping my C2S for a GT3
#19
I just dropped off my deposit yesterday for the very first allocated GT3 at my local dealer. I couldn't resist. Yeah I don't need a GT3 and its beyond my limits at the track. My C4S is awesome and reminds me why I bought the car every time I drive it. But I want this car and I cant stop thinking of the 9k rpm power band.

Some clarification please, when you said you dropped off your deposit for your dealer's first allocation, I'm assuming you were first in line for the new GT3. Since deposits have been collected many months ago to secure a place in line. I'm asking because if there wasn't any interest at your dealership, and one can just walk in to secure a car, then I might pursue a car from out of state dealers. I had a C4S until recently, and was going to get the 991 C4S, but decided much too late to wait for the GT3. I agree that the C4S is all the Porsche most drivers need, but the GT3 on the track, full song at 9000 rpm, well, life just got a little bit better at that moment.

Wow, lucky you! Did you get a confirmed allocation? I could drop off a suitcase full of cash and still won't have a chance of getting one in my area. Tons of people in line, and it is doubtful that my dealership will get any allocation. If you managed to do that so easily good for you!

If the Turbo has the same calibrations as the GT3, I may opt for that if I can't get a slot for the GT3 in a reasonable amount of time. However, I really want that 9000rpm NA sound.

I was responding to GTR and his GT3 order. In your situation, if you are getting someone else's slot who changed his mind, keep that on the down low since usually the next guy in line moves up.

I know, isn't that odd that I was first to step up ? Small dealer in town, Porsche of Colo Springs. He's allocated 2 over two years from what I heard. MSRP. I think it was luck. He had names and lists,etc. but nobody slapped 5 k down and got in line. You could call George or Joe at 719-219-1911
Thanks, called and both spots are filled. The stars lined up for you my friend.

Went to the dealer today to get in line for a GT3. Hopefully, I will have it by late winter or early next spring.
Here's the config: I don't know whether or not to order the lifting system yet.
