I am hoping that there may be a seperate forum for the 911/50. If anyone picks one up please list the date of registration/General area you live in (city would be nice but at least province/state). The option list would be good and the number xxxx/1963 is a must. At some point I'd like to form a registry.

Let the Mods know about a Registry, and start a sticky here.

TCBrown for the win! Looks to be the first North American delivery...for those of us on Rennlist anyway. I wonder if Porsche would release if it in fact was the first delivery but I suppose it all depends on dealer PPI etc...

Bacura, are you getting yours from Pfaff or Downtown? Are you going to get them to install the front plates or go the no front plate route?

It's coming from Pfaff. I've decided to go with the front plates.

Why? For a car you are going to seldom drive, and mainly concours.

It will be driven more than seldom. I do drive it to work in the nice weather. I decided I just dont want the hasle of being stopped by the men in blue. It will have a custom plate "50th 911" which will look nice for display. I'm going to put on a dark Porsche plate cover as well so it blends in with the graphite color. No points are taken off in a concours if you have a front plate. The next owner (it's a dead man's car) can worry about the front bumper 20 years from now.

tcbrown is from the Midwest U.S. so looks as though he's got one of the if not the first NA delivery.

You might be the first Canadian delivery...
