Wife and I both prefer drop tops - I actually LOVE drop tops - and I'm ok if that limits my track day options. I found visibility of the Boxster top up was very good (it was terrible in my NC Miata) so that wasn't a concern.

Deposit is $2500 (refundable) and only secures me a spot on the list but doesn't secure me a promise of an allocation. Sales guy said I'm likely looking at 18 months minimum which is fine by me as I wasn't going to buy until 2024-2025 (won't really have the money for at least another year) but with production wrapping up soon and the waitlist being this long I felt I had to at least be on the list.

If a slot opens up earlier I'll figure something out - I could lease/finance it but I really want to pay in cash for the whole thing.
