Hey guys,

We had a pair of customers do Euro Delivery in their GT3's this October/November and were awarded an extra 2019 Turbo S Coupe Build slot. If anyone is interested, please PM me.

basic timing info: it's a March Allocation, so March/April build, and would be perfect for a Springtime Euro Delivery- if anyone is interested in really experiencing the capabilities of the car, this is a great chance and with AWD the TT-S really is the ultimate road trip car even in rainy or mountain weather.

Anyone who has done Euro Delivery before knows it's a great time and a great chance to spend time with your car, your wife or son etc etc.

-CJ

CJ, I imagine you had at least a chance to sit in the GT2 RS. What were your thoughts? I'm probably picking one up tomorrow, unless the dealer continues with dealer BS. It's the only car I would give up for my '17 TTS.

Randy, if you're looking to sell your HRE wheels I may be interested.

Randy the GT2RS is a very special car- although it's quirky. You have to bring 2-3 gallons of distilled water to each track day being a big part of it. To me, the GT2 RS is a hugely important car for Porsche- the fastest 911 ever, etc etc.

It is VERY easy to imagine that a lot of owners will stuff them away in their garages and that a lot of people will have serious problems taming it. I drove one for 4 laps on track and the TCS/ESC was hugely active (it was not my car and I didn't want to put a wheel off) but despite that- the power really overwhelms you. Any change of direction while flat on the gas will snap the rear out into a huge drift. IT'S A BEAST.

Thanks for the feedback, CJ! I picked mine up today, so I guess I will need to just dump it now! (haha, jk)
