How long did it take from the deposit to the allocation and delivery in your experience from the dealership?
Zero, because you should be buying a used 911 instead, not ordering a new base cayman.
What color is your Porsche?
I respect this take.
For me, if money wasn’t a limiter, I too would’ve maybe gone with a more premium spec, but doubt a different make. I was able to build a ‘22 base 718C before the markup craziness, proudly with <$4k in options (none of which were chassis/performance related) to get into what many consider one of the best mid-engine sports car platforms offered. Adding in the GT4 shifter and rowing the gears every day makes me smile. It’s not a perfect car. Which kinda surprises me, but it’s pretty close.
Oh, mines Aventurine Green, which maybe helps too. It was delivered 5 mos after build was submitted.
4-5 months between freeze date and delivery. Anything that happens before you get an official allocation is out of the factory’s control, so there’s no real way to assess that timeline. It took me a week at the end of July to find an October 2023 build month. Mine should be delivered sometime in December.
