Hi Mark. Good to see you on here too... I'm no. 1 on the list so expect my car in July, but am a bit miffed at them upping the deposit so much. I was always told Â£5k, then 10% on spec. To be honest, it's the first time I've had to pay a deposit on a 911 as my dealer has been taken over by Sytner recently. I had a great relationship with the previous company and bought a new 911 at least once a year from them so they never asked for anything from me.

Can't wait to get the car, though!! May even run it back to back with the M6 to see how they compare...

I'm actually a little annoyed at being asked for another 10k at spec, like I've never bought a car from them or something. I may just cancel the whole thing and get something else on principal. Wait a couple of years for the 'turbo hoopla' to fade away.

I thought it would be available soon as the price list is now released. Guess we just have to wait.

I had this similar question when they asked for more money but all in all they have people lining up at the door for this car at first so they could care less if you get upset or bailed on the car ... You just have to bite your lip and grind through the wait
