Garnet Red was discontinued by Porsche on September 9th. Ask me how I know SMH

Finished with European delivery tonight. What a day. Both cars turned out wonderful. The color of the Club Coupe is so much better in person and the Targa's color is perfect. The color matches the carbon fiber interior very closely. There were so many GT3 RS waiting for pick up. But the highlight of the day (besides picking up both cars) was the Classic Porsche visit.

I will try to post pictures, but for some reason, the app for the iPad won't let me post any.

They did have some Porsche luggage for sale, but not the 50th anniversary.

Congratulations. Looking forward to seeing pictures.

Do they still have a club coupe in the delivery area. Or both the 50th and the 60th.

We picked up a Club Porsche as well. According to them, ours was one of the last ones. And no 50th or 60th in the delivery area otherwise.

We also saw F. Porsche with his family at our hotel. He was there with a beautiful Boxster.

Nice! Welcome to the owners club. Don't forget to ask mathfuzzy for the owners login at CLUBLAU.org.
