Burning Brakes
Do you own a new Porsche and get the magazine??? The whole friggin thing is about how Porsche is leading the charge(pardon the pun) on electrification. The **** is coming a helluva lot faster than many people think!!!

This car salesman line of BS about "better jump on gasoline powered cars" is laughable. As if everything is going to be electric next year. This type of nonsense is insulting and abusive. If I lied that way in my profession I'd be in court for the rest of my life and have absolutely no tolerance for this blatant stupidity.

I'm V200 now with a lock on June 11. Build in July. Delivery late August. I was advised that delivery may be delayed slightly since I've opted for a PEC Atlanta delivery (I live in Atlanta).
I just added LWBS to my build. I would appreciate any suggestions on the build before it locks.

Won the GT4 lotto
This video did it for me:
Yesterday I walked into a Porsche dealership and asked if they had any GT4 allocations. I was informed of the obvious, that they do not and probably not anytime soon. As I am driving away, the dealer calls me and tells me, I won the Porsche lotto. A customer had changed his mind from a GT4 to a Spyder. Was back in that dealership in a flash and got my GT4 order in! July build, take delivery on 9/24.
I have been fantasizing about this car for years, finally! Here is my build: http://www.porsche-code.com/PNLUF4F7
Nice to meet you guys!

white is Boxster S, blue is GTS 4.0
The specs indeed point to 350 / 330 for GTS and 330/299 for boxster S
One more issue I found is that the rear wheels are narrower with the Carrera S rims even though the specs list the same tire width.
Well, the upside is that I get bigger brakes than I thought, lol.

For the people here that are into math, the brakes in the GTS are 12.5% & 21.8% larger F/R compared to an S (simply comparing the rotor area).

I just received the bad news from my SA that my V260 is now delayed to July 16 with est arrival at dealer not until Sept 24. Original V260 was May 28 , then pushed to June 11 and now July.
I'm likely a victim of the chip shortage delay for the 18 way seats It will be worth the wait though!!
My SA seams to think my car will still be MY2021, he claims the cross over does not happen till next year.
Anybody here knows when the cross over to MY2022 happens as I think he may be mistaken ?

My original build date was early June then when it shifted to July it was no longer MY21.
Double check it, maybe you can get Shark Blue

My SA sent me this about a month ago. My original delivery date was 6/11/2021, but noticed on the bottom it says arrival at the dealership will be 6/25/2021. I guess I would take delivery a day or two later after PDI? I’m hopefully that my GT4. Doesn’t get any further delays.
