Default Just got THE call...'Extra'...????

My dealer got an 'extra' GT3 that's already been built. Status 300 on the boat now apparently.

So what's with this whole 'extra' thing? The build is not exactly how I would spec it, but I'm taking it anyway. I'm just hoping I can get used to the LWB seats!

I guess the P11 backlog has resolved itself again......even for dealer stock units.

Congrats! GT Silver and buckets! Can't go wrong. Nice interior choices too. PCCB's will look sweet too.

I'm in Collegeville. I think you're in Upper Darby area? You used to have a F10 M5...? You were on the M5post forum...?
While I still have my M5, I haven't been on the BMW forum for a long time. Too many punks asking how to afford an M. Lol

The allocation and your joy to receive is great, congratulations.

As to what's up with the allocation, with extra cost Bluetooth telephone, telephone module, sport chrono, etc. they really loaded it with extra cost goodies. I wouldn't put it past Pirsche to say "hey we've got a bunch of cost option extras on the shelf (already ordered from the supplier) and nobodies ordered them so let's load up a bunch of cars spec'ed to use them up and maximize profit. With no cars available and still demand they will go no problem - and the buyer will think they scored." Smells like the ole 30 extra PTS GT3 cars that showed up pre-spec'ed with items not usually ordered ready to go to willing hands


Quick Reply: Just got THE call...'Extra'...????
