Default Meet Barbara Boeckenhoff, the new Manager of 'Porsche Exclusive' in the US!

Here is our first video of Barbara Boeckenhoff, Manager of 'Porsche Exclusive' - Personal Design at PCNA. She is the replacement for Sascha Glaeser and she is based at PCNA Headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. She will be assisted in the task by veteran Melissa Witek in Atlanta and newcomer Matthew Henry in Los Angeles. In this video, Barbara is seen with PCA's Executive Director Vu Nguyen talking about the West Coast's 'Porsche Exclusive' showcar - the 'Viper Green' 2014 911 Turbo S that debuted at the Porsche Parade at Monterey last June. Barbara just joined PCNA, coming from Porsche AG in Zuffenhausen where she worked in the 'Porsche Classic' department. Her first official event in the US was at the Los Angeles Auto Show this past November. Barbara can be contacted at:

Thanks Eduardo - I assume they'll offer pretty much nothing for the RS just like the GT3? Do you think this is a sign that PTS is going to startup again?

Barbara told me back in November that the PTS program would be resuming in June/July.

I don't think it's confusing. It's just not customer friendly at all. Exclusive is an understatement when it comes to this process.

Needless to say I'm still a bit salty over my PTS order being cancelled and now my GT3RS doesn't look like I can get PTS either...

Regarding "Porsche Exclusive":

That's cool...for a lot of the other Porsche range. However I found for the GT3 that "Porsche Exclusive" was non-existant. Everything I asked for, i.e. deviated stiching,, painted calipers, painted seat backs, etc, etc. was denied and the only offeing was what was on the website configuator. I am probalby going to Techart when the car finally arrives.

WEll....I would say "Exclusive" is an overstatement of a process/offering that offers minimal individualization over the standard options (which I admit is far greater than a lot of other manufacturers)

The viper green is a fun color. Don't know if I'd want to own it, but it's fun to look at. The rest of the car is pretty fugly.

Yeah, doesn't really show off their offering. My dealer has a yellow turbo on the floor with red stitching etc as part of selling Porsche Exclusive and it looks pretty fugly as well.

I used to think Viper Green was great, until I saw a 650s in Matins Green:
