Thank-you and an appeal
As we head into the holidays I want to thank everyone for staying current with this thread as you have all worked your way through the delivery process. Our stated goal in the beginning was to share experiences and keep track of each others orders to see how things were moving behind the scenes at Porsche. I think we can say unequivocally that we have done that and then some. Most of us here have had an extremely long waiting period to delivery, and without the assurances of others here, I think many of us would have given up. Instead, I am proud to say that our tracking is almost to an end. When you look at the list now, it is almost all green with deliveries! Fantastic!
This is proof to all the naysayers in the beginning that thought there was no way Porsche would do this many orders and we would be disappointed. Well, as I and others contended, while the number of PTS cars built for this series GT3 is over 400 in the North America, it is not out of line % wise with what was done in the past. But somehow, I think a lot of these naysayers really wanted PTS to stay in the closet and be something only for those in the "know". Keep it exclusive and only the lucky or VIP get to have PTS. When the price went up to reflect the actual cost to handle PTS, more people revolted, and dropped out. Somehow if it's not exclusive and cheap it's not worth it. Instead, while expensive, PTS is very popular. When this started, my inside contact at Porsche told me executives at PCNA had made a deal with Porsche to collect as many PTS orders as they could to prove that the NA customers wanted it. In return Porsche promised to accommodate the requests. We all know now it was a resounding success. In fact, if you have kept track it is the most popular color choice! But we know that is like saying 'other' or 'miscellaneous' is the most popular color choice! And amazingly, this Rennlist group has captured about 40% of that total here on the list, with links to your delivery pictures, pretty cool!
So, where do we go from here? I personally think the list is a great resource as is to research PTS color choices. On the other hand, it is missing a significant number of the PTS cars (60%) and many of you post and move on which is fine. But for those of us who are passionate about our color choice, how do you think we should move forward? I could easily add VIN numbers to the list and continue to track your cars as a partial registry, we could move it into a full fledged registry with a web site (although I would need some help here) or ????
Let me know your thoughts, no hurry we still have 3 or 4 months of deliveries, but we are nearing the end. Thanks in advance and Happy Holidays!
