Default Thats going to be a fun car. Have you heard arrival estimates?

I wouldnt be surprised if this machine gets tagged north of 150k. Can you say "one year wait list"?

Default Its odd. They say 502 is available for 10 seconds with a temporary over boost...

I guess to help turbo lag???

The "normal" tq rating is 460.

From every mag I have read, hp is 473.

But I guess it's splitting hairs.

Default depends on where you look...

I think if you find the right dealer, you will be able to order one right away...They always say that and then people go paying way over sticker, but we have never had a problem. We were persistent with finding a GT3, and found a place to order it when we wanted - while lots of people were paying well over sticker and waiting a long time. Same with the C-GT...if you are patient and call around, you will find one.
