Any GT3's For Sale in Western US? Looking for a new one or a dealer allotment

Just got back from an awesome time at Skip Barber and talked my dad into changing his order from a turbo and getting a GT3.

The dealer that has his deposit (Pioneer) says they will not be getting any more in.

I wanted to check here and see if anyone knew of dealer inventory or allotment for a GT3.

Any info would be great!

call Mckenna, they have a basalt black, slightly used, should be for sale soon. Expect to pay sticker price or higher though from these clowns.

you will be hard pressed to find an allocation or a car in general, might want to look outside the state and eat the $2k freight.

I bet if you spent some time on the phones calling dealers (or check all the online inventories) you will find a few.

My white/black/pccb/bixenon was at the port on Friday and I already told them I am not going to take it but they have kept my name on it. A local friend might pick it up, and I'm guessing that they'll want over MSRP if I back out but if it ends up being available I'll PM you if it's optioned the way you want it and are interested.

I looked in the area pretty extensively. I believe there are slightly used GT3's in Newport, Pacific, and McKenna. They were all asking for 10-15K over sticker despite being used. I think Rusnak in Westlake is getting a slightly used white one soon. I believe Downtown will be getting an unclaimed car soon too. Good Luck, I called about 100 dealers and got a few bites but only one sure allocation.

You might try Porsche of Albuquerque. Speak with Mas Yao. Two weeks ago they had a very nice red GT3 with many options at MSRP. Lots of interior red pieces that are stunning. PCCB, etc.

Phone number 505-338-8240. Tell him Tim Burrell told you to call. It would be a fun ride back to San Diego from Albuquerque.

Also there will be 08 GT3's. But not very many of them.

I have a 08 allocation that's in MFGCNF status. Another buyer wants my allocation, but we'll see if he comes through. He did offer me a "fee" to get that allocation knowing that he can order any color/option that he wants at MSRP. It's a December build. If you're interested, PM me and I'll keep you on the list in case he doesn't follow through.
