You know, I've been thinking that a 000 logo in the appropriate color and thickness might look pretty cool in place of the model designation on the rear of our Porsches. Just sayin...

God bless,

So I called my dealer and asked if he'd share their supplier. The result is the first frame I've liked better than no frame on a modern Porsche, as plain frames look a bit too plain to me.
I was torn between sporting the sticker or the frame. End of settling with the sticker because I want my frame to be even in all 4 sides but I still like the frame a lot!

Much like the cars, I'm not sure there's a wrong answer—and I would argue the sticker is more "T" than the frame. Fits with the lightweight theme, which might be why I liked the sticker with no plate frame on my GT4.

Pete, I'm missing something...is the 000 frame available for purchase?

^ Generally speaking, yes it is.

Just checked the store and don't see it. Will look into why, but suspect it's due to limiting trips to the post office—as they were typically onesie-twosie sales. Will assess, but whatever the case, they'll be back at some point. We have plenty of them in stock.

Thanks, Pete. I will check periodically. Given the publicity they've received in this thread there may be a run on them!

God bless,

^ This made me smile first time I shifted into reverse—didn't anticipate that, or that the logo would be recognizable despite being so small and upside down.

We're lucky in that our printer is a contractor to Canada (temporary license plates, I think?), and our first sample copies of 013 arrived more than two weeks ago. Fulfillment has been slow, however.

Some subscribers have received 013, others haven't. Hopefully, soon...

Glad it got there, Bud, and thank you for your support!

Got my S copy at home yesterday via FedEx, too, as did two friends in the bay area and two friends in LA. The surprise is S beat the soft-cover, as it's bound by hand after being trucked from BC to AZ—and I've had the sample soft-cover copies the plant sent for weeks. My apologies to those waiting, and I'll look into why but I suspect I know.
