Talking Gift from Porsche

Its always nice to receive something that you didn't expect. This came in the mail today. see pics.

Attached to the box was a small card with a pin no which basically allowed you to view a custom GT3 link with a new vid from AP and about the GT3. Some few notes I got were:

1. euro 5 emmission.
2. The developers of the new GT3 are the same folks as the cup car.
3. Really nice action shots at the track.
4. Couple of other cool comments which got my blood going.

I know some of you have your cars already but this is good for the folks who are waiting.

Very nice touch Porsche. Thanks.

On order JCBH. December build but pushed to January. The wait is killing me so I tried not to think about it which is impossible.

BMW used to do that - they stopped a couple of years ago though. My M5 in 08 had it which was a bit of fun. The new M5 that arrived last year...I asked and they just said no we dont do that any more.

Be nice to get a Barber day out though courtesy of Porsche.

Got the package day before yesterday. The booklet is nice. However, the line where it says the central locking device "ensures a faster wheel change" is insulting to those that have done it multiple times.

Just received the GT3 screen cleaner and book today. Mid Feb build date. Like my GT3 I plan on getting it dirty and I can report that the screen cleaner has excellent performance.
