CT requires a front license plate as well. So when you purchase a new 718, it doesn't come with a front license plate holder or pre-drilled holes to put one on? Please don't take offense, but I really don't care for the off-center mounting of the license plate. If forced to do it myself I would have to drill holes.
Good luck!

I'm in CA, another state that requires a front plate. But with so many cars here choosing not to put one on, and after following the rules in my previous X cars, I decided to keep my plate in my trunk. If/when I get pulled over, it should just be a "show me it's been done" ticket. But whatever, I decided to take my chances, since the front is so pretty with no plate!

3M double-sided all-weather tape...

In the past I've used on numerous P-cars the 3M All-weather Double Sided tape. For some reason it's never been a popular idea here on Rennlist but the stuff is very heavy duty and secure and it allows you to position the plate nice and low on the front bumper. Check it out. When you need to just take a hair dryer to soften it up and it pulls right off.

Last week I was trying to get a price for a new 718 Cayman (base). I wanted one built to my specs. The salesman said he would call me back. That was 4 days ago. I guess Porsche doesn't need my money.Oh well....

No worries. I am sure soon enough you'll be able do all that on the configurator, place a deposit and work out financing if you need it. Forgetful sales people will be a thing of the past and you'll track the production and pick it up or have it delivered. Any other dealerships close by?

How about a different dealer--maybe one that isn't so rich from ripping off its customers?
