Default Waiting for aGT3?

If any of you east coast guys are waiting for a GT3 and it hasn't shown up at the dealer yet, I think I found it. I live only a couple of miles from the port where they come in and saw this yesterday.
I went back down this morning to take the pic (through the fence). It's pretty unusual for there to be this many of 1 type of car to be stacked up in a corner of the lot like this.
I guess they're waiting for Porsche to sort out the (stop-sale) problem before they even release them to the dealers.

Ugh. Parked outside on the East Coast in February for goodness knows how long...

Note to self: negotiate for detail and paint protection film at provider of my choice upon (eventual) delivery.

Gee, one of those two Sapphire Blue ones has my name on it. I'm really wondering when I'll get my paws on it. The buyer picked up my C4S last Monday night. I'm driving the minivan now

You shall be rewarded nicely. I saw a Sapphire Blue in person at the track a couple of weeks ago and the color fits the car perfectly. None of the pictures I have seen resemble the true beauty of that color.

I only see 1 agate and I'm gonna assume its for me. Good to see it's surrounded by two good looking red heads.

Is it me or does that Panamera look positively MASSIVE next to those beauties. I'm sure it's partly due to how it's parked.

^^Could be the way it's parked but it still looks almost SUV like in comparison.

They are massive, at least in comparison to a lot of other cars.

Thanks for posting the photo, clifforza. Your post led me to drive to Davisville (about 1 hr. away) to see if I could recognize my GT3 among the several white ones. Lo and behold, mine was right on the end closest to the road. It was easy to spot because it was the only white one with a license plate and black wheels with no wheel covering. That's because I picked up and drove it in Germany.

I've attached a photo of my car.

Nice!!!! Looks awesome with black wheels. I hope STD wheel looks as good as yours. Once you pick up the car we need a close up shot of the blk wheels

Hi Ivan. I'm glad you got to visit your car. I don't know if I could do that though. Kinda' like having your favorite dog quarantined at the vet. All you want to do is bring her home to the family. Too bad ya' couldn't just whistle and have her follow you.
