I'm considering the euro delivery, was wondering if anyone else is picking up a GT3 from the factory around mid april. A small group would be fun!

DO IT!

Even solo? Might get lonely after a few hours!

I am picking up in Mid April, hopefully, but I am going for the Leipzig Factory pick up not the Zuffenhausen as I have already done that about 2 years ago. Also rumor has it you get to flog their FIA test track at the Leipzig factory and that is just to good to pass up. It would be great to meet up someplace though. Did you have a plan for any travels north?

I'm scheduled for early May EU delivery.

You can pick up in Zuffenhousen and return the car to Leipzig. That's my plan. That way I have it broken in before I do the track at Leipzig.

From what I was told you don't use your own car on the track but one spec'ed out very similar so no worries on the break in!! Also great idea both porsche factories one vaca.!

So they will give us one of their GT3's to run!

From the website:

"dynamic vehicle handover in an identical model, accompanied by a professional Porsche instructor"

Fingers crossed!!

Thanks for the info!
Would you get access to their GT3+pro driver even if picked up at Zuffen and returned at Leipzig?
I haven't made any plans yet, but that sounds exciting.

I don't think so but contact the ED Rep, Jamie at Porsche NA for definitive answer.

Found out my car should be completed on March 7. So I could pick it up end of March in Germany.
Would it be a reasonably good driving season there for those familiar with the area?

I'm picking up my car at the end of March as well. There's a track day at Spa on April 4, and i'm planning to take the car there as well.

not ideal ... still spring there ... but better than winter!
