Default Now The Wait Begins

The deed is done. There were so many options that I could have gone either way on, that it probably didn't matter which way I ended up going. The dealership could not have been nicer.
For the time being I'll just have to be content in reading the forum and knowing my time will come.
I know my build wouldn't suit everybody, but I'm happy the way it has come together.

Looks great, and you know what they say. Go big, or go home.

That is pretty much my motto, it seems...

Haha, thanks for the complement. Ocala is not too far from me. I believe your Porsche dealer is quite a bit bigger than ours here in Tallahassee. I was briefed on the service dept. here, and it appears top-notch.
That would be make a nice drive for me when the new car arrives.

Thanks, Bob

Thanks, I'm bracing for a long wait. The worst part of waiting on my present car was after it was built, then watching the slog across the ocean, only for it to sit ten days, waiting for transport out of Georgia.
Your car looks great. It won't be much longer.

Very Nice Build - I see that you don't have PSE. You don't want PSE?

They couldn't provide anything firm on the build date. It appears Porsche is devoting resources to its larger vehicles at the moment.

That’s what I would get if I go build route, except maybe changing interior to red.
i love waiting, it’s the best part! I usually more excited when searching, shopping and waiting for my car. Once I have it then game over lol

Just curious: did you consider the GTS?
