looks like the first run of the GTS starts up in June. My order status just moved to pre-prod with the 6/1 to 6/30 allocation period. Hoping that means I'll take delivery mid-July!!

splurge & go for the illuminated door sills. i have them on my GTS & they are really neat. the GTS is in red. they blow away any of the other Porsche versions of illuminated sills.

it's only $ and i don't think you could ever retro-fit that option - i love them on mine.

 

Jet green..looks cool on the PNA web site...can't wait to see it in person.

 

[edit] I got jet green confused with periodot.

 

So, I'm going to pre-order 1 of these today. Any idea what the lease rates are? And/or was anybody able to negotiate a deal off sticker?? I've got a 2009 Sand White Cayenne GTS I will be trading.

 

Pre-ordered a GTS a couple of weeks ago as well. How did you get the status update of your order? The only info I have is from my pro forma invoice which has the code MFGCNF on it. I'm a Porsche newbie, so excuse my ignorance...

 

I ordered mine this week, It's set for July build/Aug delivery. Est. completion of build is on 7/13

I was able to get 2% off, I've done business in the past at their dealerships. The sales rep told me no one in the area is discounting Cayennes, 3 dealers here in Central FL told me that by phone as well.

 

Ordered my GTS yesterday. $6100 off the MSRP ($107K MSRP after all options)
The dealership gave me a September build/ October delivery schedule. I can't understand why my build/delivery time is so delayed compared to other recent GTS orders on this post.

 

I got 4500 off msrp on mine ($96K MSRP). Thought this was fair given the fact that this is a new model. I'm slated for a July delivery. Perhaps your build time is delayed because your dealer has already used up an earlier allocation? Apparently I got my dealer's only allocation for the summer...

 

Carmine Red is being delayed (well not delayed, it is being popular thus delayed). =)

I am waiting an additional 4-6 weeks also.

 

Thanks gstahl

You are probably correct. Mine is Carmine red. The dealer just sent me an e-mail about estimated completion date on 9/25/12 an delivery in late October. I don't regret it, the Carmine red should be a great color.

It's not even my car and I'm looking forward to seeing the pic's!!!

 

So get this.. The Marina Ace got into Davisville yesterday on route to Houston. I am flying from Houston to Boston for July 4th holiday and we fly right over Naragannset Bay and just as plain as day is that big old vehicle carrier in port. Hope my new little pepper is on there! We'll see when I get back on the17th!
