Stop Sale?
 
Anyone know why a stop sale has been issued today on the GT3?

A delivery stop was discussed on Pistonheads. Guys over there said it affected 62 cars worldwide and was related to an exhaust bolt.

Any additional detail? Hmmm...

0Q991 02-11-2014 10:06 PM

Affects 62 cars not yet delivered? How about previously delivered cars?

Dam that happened on the carreras too!

@kosmo -- current Carreras?

Can't win. I'm never going to get my car :( The boat it was on just arrived today, having been dropped at the port in Emden on 20 Dec

Thanks, @kosmo.

I just pulled this from Pistonheads:

I just had a call from my OPC - my 7/2 build completion car is built as planned, however there is a universal 'sale stop' on all GT3s, including ones sitting in show rooms awaiting collection.

Apparently there is a problem with the sump bolts and they need replaced - looking at up to a two week delay so a bit gutting.

Presume this will affect all on road cars too.

^^^Can any current US owner confirm with their dealer / service department?

This is all part of the experience of owning a first year model of any car. It happened with my 991 carrera S too. Mostly painless. A bit of delay here and there at most. Nothing to get bent out of shape about.

Glad I scrapped my euro delivery plans.

reidry 02-12-2014 10:10 AM

Glad you guys are doing all the beta testing, hope all the bugs are worked out for my May build.
