LG, LG interior, yellow calipers, silv wheels, and big tank are the main options. Didn't get carried away. Skipped some of the popular stuff like WP, led's, Bose, and dash wart. I'll never be able to sell with my spec.

call pcna and get the truth. To me the info you got from your dealer is inaccurate.

It talked to pcna and they had a similar explanation. The said the status of my car is "pending inspection" with no expected delivery date listed. They could neither confirm or deny the government shut down theory , lol. Don't most cars get an expected delivery date as soon as they come off the boat?

My dealership had 2 GT cars delivered early this week off the Viking Queen. One holdup could be many of the transport trucks are/were out west because of the auctions. Realistic has a heavy presence out there and they are Porsche's carrier at least out of Jacksonville.
Seems like some SA's just make up whatever comes to mind.

^ Congratulations 🎉 The car looks great!
it seems most folks with cars offloaded at JAX have got their cars delivered. Enjoy!

Over and out... someone else to take over this thread.

^ Zero regrets! It’s fantastic. I’m back in an RS and it feels great. More details on the driving characteristics soon.
