I’ll take an empty seat here in the corner with the gang Order placed on Halloween, locked in 11/11 (Nigel Tufnel Day) and “in production” since 12/8. Delivery date bumped from 1/20 to 2/17. I did option the Burmester, is that something causing delays? Appreciate the info and I’ll bring coffee tomorrow, I promise!
Beautiful car. What wheels are those? They don't look platinum and they don't look black.

I was on Glovis Clipper, so the car has actually been at dealer for about one and a half weeks, the wait has been agonizing!

Well, the time has come. I'm officially checking out of the waiting room. I wish you guys the best. Hang in there, your car will look better in person than any photo can do for it. PECLA delivery was well worth the experience. I highly recommend it. They really take care of you and make the entire experience special and take it to a new level.

That is indeed my dad. I couldn't think of anyone more special to share the moment with. He is a car guy too. He still has his original high school car (1970 Camaro) that was coincidentally my high school car as well. Now that I have the Spyder handled, I'm going to be helping him pull his car apart to restore it to its original glory. Engine should be coming out shortly. I was very blessed to have him there with me, and it was amazing how much they included him. I was allowed to split my track time with him, and he told me once it was over that if he had the garage space he'd be buying a Porsche the next day. I never figured him for a Porsche guy, but a bit of seat time can convert anyone. These are truly special cars, and we are all lucky to be able to enjoy them.

Fantastic! Anyone who says “they’re just cars” just doesn’t get it. Great story, thanks sharing. How was the track experience?
