When I ordered my car, they had me sign a paper that said I had to pay within 4 days. I called the sales person and told him that it was a pretty tight schedule to try to meet. He told me not to worry about it and that they don't enforce that requirement and some other conditions on the paper. When the car arrived, it took a number of days going back and forth to get the paper work straight but it was no problem.
It's interesting that being from out of the country didn't concern your dealer. My dealer told me that there is a condition imposed by Porsche that the car must not leave the country.

I would say all the Porsche dealers in US should not be too nervous about selling a GT3 or a RS to a Chinese
, because as far as I know, nearly every GT3s in China is sold with a 5% to 10% off discount. There is no benefit on exporting a GT3.Dealers should be aware of people buying cayenne s. Chinese love luxury SUV and the price for a cayenne s in China is 15% more than get the same car from US after all the tax.

Are Buick's still outselling Cadillac's in China? To bad Buick doesn't make the T-Type/Grand National/GNX.

Even more so the bigger and Longer European Sport's Sedans. For instance the Long Wheel Base Audi's and Long Wheel Base Panamera Porsche's! Just adding about four or five inches length wise between the wheel base is a very big Status Symbol.

Take your business to the Porsche Exchange in Highland Park, IL - nothing but good experiences with them and they have earned my loyalty. Heck, they have never taken, nor requested a deposit on any of the Porsches I have bought. When they told me I would get a GT3 it was done. Nothing in writing ect. When is was time to build it they called me to come in and build it with them.

Finance Managers
Most dealership finance managers are arrogant ********. They think
they hold the keys to the kingdom. All I want from a finance
manager are the keys and paperwork as I run by his office when
escaping.
