Was going to do PEC delivery in Atlanta, but cancelled that since PEC is so backed up. They pushed delivery to mid December; no thank you. Now, car should be at dealer first week in Nov. maybe sooner if all the stars align.
Wooohooo! Another Smokies car pops out of mother PAG!

Exciting stuff C!

Looks like CARB cert is completed for 991.2 GT3. Hopefully this means our cars won't be held up at the port. Let the deliveries begin!!!

If things go slightly ahead of schedule, as they are, we could catch the Splendid Ace on the 29th!

Mine is a manual... yours?

I'm going PDK... Have the 997 RS and Cayman GTB1 for manual enjoyment.

The PDK is fun at the track... Let's me focus on other aspects where I need improvement (and I do).

Are you still getting Carmine Red? Picking mine up in just 16 days in Leipzig; will post pics of delivery.. so far Carmine pics have been hard to find on the GT3.2, so really interested to see how it turns out.

I'm guessing you guys may need to rename the Spring Event "Smokies GT3.2" due to everyone involved ordering new cars! I'm undecided what to bring this spring, my RS from last year or the new Gt3.2-- want to fit in of course!

Yes, it's Carmine Red and locked so no more dithering with the configurator

You are so right, very few carmine pics out there. I cannot wait to find out what your impressions are when you pickup. Please post a pile of pics when you can.

Oh, what to bring to smokies?... Easy, Carmine of course!
You'll fit in regardless. Glad to have you along.

The ship carrying my car arrives in San Diego on October 20th.. Should be at my dealer within a week after that.

I can see them calling me at dinner time:

Peace out, plane is taking off.

Funny


On the off chance that you're actually being an unconscionable douche-troll and not merely a self-congratulating-but-innocuous satirist, let me educate you on negotiation since it may not be your expertise.


1. Any information that enlightens me about the object being negotiated, no matter its source, is my leverage.

2. Any information that devalues the object to me is also my leverage. It's worth less to me, ergo I want it less and I am willing to pay less.

3. The information given to me on Rennlist applies to both 1 and 2.


That lesson wasn't so hard! Now you can really congratulate yourself.

I'm glad you cracked a smile.

I'll dig in the bucket of options you offered and select, unconscionable & satirist.

Good luck with your negotiations, all of Rennlist is here to help. And when all else fails, call Martin.

Congrats! If I recall, your car was delayed to a much later date, so this is good news.

Easy does it tiger. CA is one of the good guys and that was genuinely funny. I don't think he was making fun of you.

Peace. The internet is NOT serious business.

Yea, sarcasm is a dangerous business with low or negative ROI.. glad someone gets my brand. It's all in good fun.. the "laughing close to you, just not exactly with you" type.. commiserating through humor if you will.

He/she may have been correct anyway. Doesn't seem like many dealers are doing anything but chortling at my plea for a GT3 lol
