The latest I have heard is that Porsche has planned (hoping) to build 1,000 GTS models for now.
I agree...it is indeed not a "limited edition", but probably limited more by sluggish economy, etc.
Allocations are slow here in Calif. Most dealers are getting only one or two cars allocated per month, if they are one of the larger dealers. I am "next on the list" for a January build at my dealer, if they get an allocation. They are one of the largest dealers in Calif and only got two cars allocated to them for December.
At this snails pace, I doubt you will see many of these cars sitting on car lots in 2011, or rather until the economy improves.
Regarding pricing, dealers are telling me in the US it will sell for MSRP...no premium upcharges.
