Can't be nice relying on the Chinese market to the detriment of the US, however, with China's overall car sales falling 14.6% in April.
Re: Porsche 718 Spyder/GT4
It'll be subject to all the usual Porsche halo car bullshit like the original GT4 was. If you buy the Panamera and Cayenne they ask you to buy and you've a satisfactory history of buying cars at retail and trading them back to the dealer at aloss when ythey're trading over-list then you'll get allocated one. Otherwise you can whistle and will have to buy one that's been flipped for well over list.
List is ~£70k. You'll need >£100k to buy one.

I thought they'd said the numbers weren't limited and they'll make them as long as anyone wants one?
Re: Porsche 718 Spyder/GT4
You could go into your local Porsche dealer, try order one and report back.

They’re supposedly really easy to get a hold of in Europe though aren’t they? Shame they’re LHD though.
How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Porsche 718 Spyder/GT4
I heard that as well.
It’s only a UK phenomenon where you either have to have a good ‘relationship’ with your OPC (i.e buying four Macans etc ) or pay overs.
You have to beg Porsche to take £80k off you
Re: Porsche 718 Spyder/GT4
I mean if I had the cash I would... but seriously, I don't think it's like that here, or at least not as much. *fingers crossed for if I ever get the cash...
Re: Porsche 718 Spyder/GT4
Interesting! Like what the others have said, it's a UK thing, which is a bit weird.

Porsche also said they'd stop speculators from getting hold of their GT cars.
Speculators, after Porsche announced this:
Oui, je suis un motard.
