My GT3 is registered for the 2014 Parade Autocross and the TSD Rally. Don't know if it will be running by then. If not we will be driving the loaner. Is anyone else going to Parade this year? Members of the Porsche family usually attend. Maybe we should get together with them and discuss the situation.

We have other stuff going on later in the week so I'm not registered, but we're coming down at least to see the Concours on Monday. I figured I'd have my car back by then but now I'm not so sure....

A delegation of owners to meet the Porsche delegation would be interesting.

I hope to hell this is resolved by then....

If not, a 991 GT3 specific corral filled with C2 & Cayman loaners would be kinda funny. Maybe even put the GT3 option sticker in the passenger window for added effect/embarrassment?

I'm thinking about getting some of those vinyl flame stickers for the Concours.

It's only a suggestion that you not drive the car.
What better place to be if there is an issue - surrounded by helpful Porsche people.

Mike in CA: I will be wearing a GT3 lanyard and a Porsche logo cap with flames on the sides at the concours. Say Hi & I'll buy you a beer.

Mike in CA

Ralleyporsche, I'll look for you. I'll probably be wearing my trusty blue Racers Group hat. Make that 2 beers and we can each buy a round.

I will be sending out an email to every PCNA and PAG address I can find telling them that more than one angry 2014 GT3 buyer will be seeking out all of the Porsche family members and PAG execs they can find at Parade to let them know what a debacle this has been.

Rallye: I don't think this campaign of yours is either wise or effective. And it could cost you heavily in the short & long run! The words 'angry buyer' mated to 'seeking out all of the Porsche family members and PAG execs' at an actual public event like the PCA Parade sounds like you are making an actual physical threat! In our security-conscious & legal environment, you are setting yourself up for 'trouble'. This behavior is not what Porsche wants or expects from a customer. They could take your allocation away or refuse to sell you the car. And this is certainly not the type of behavior, especially someone angrily confronting a Porsche family member or PAG guest from Germany, that PCA will tolerate at its Parade! Trust me on this. You are skating on very thin ice...so caveat lector!

One of the great benefits of the long, personal association between PCA and the Porsche family is the easy, informal access of PCA members to them when they attend the annual Parade! That should not, AND WILL NOT, be put in jeopardy because some disgruntled 991 gt3 owners or prospective owners, are dissatisfied with the delays of the 'stop sale'! Let's keep emotions in check and this 'bump-on-the-road' in perspective...please!

Z356: How in the world do you get from "seeking" out to a physical threat? That is a false assumption.
