I ordered a base 911 with PTS in Stone Grey in June. I picked the color from a 57-59 option offered for 356 although I have never seen one in person (so I'm hoping it'll look good). I added a few other minor options including a PEC Atlanta delivery.

Thanks for confirming your order is still on track. I sent a tweet #porschecares
and will call Monday too.

Will keep the group informed

blue horseshoe thanks for the photo and web link. It looks like the color I want although this one has a lot of extra cool things. I appreciate being able to visualize my car. Thanks.

My boat arrives Saturday at 09:00 in Davisville, RI. I am thinking it will arrive at the dealership in VA by the end of next week. Since I'll be in Seoul all next week, I'll miss taking photos of it coming off the truck. I guess it isn't a big deal, but thought it would be cool to have it as part of the photo history.

Ask your sales associate to do you a solid and snap some pics for you.

I asked, but whether he has time to do it or is there when it comes is another thing. It's not an item to worry about, just a "nice to have."

I think it's time to join this thread. C2S was finalized today on my end. VooDoo Blue will be the color. This will be my first nice car, first Porsche and 50th bday gift to myself. I originally wanted a different color but VooDoo Blue took over.
My Porsche Code.

Man, I wish I knew what VooDoo Blue looks like! Unfortunately it doesn't show in the configurator... Show some pics when you can!

Also, congrats on the new car! My first Porsche as well...

That terrible time when your 911 is at the port and your just waiting on release from customs. Dealer promised me I can take delivery 120 minutes after it comes off the truck.

Can't leave waiting room yet. 17 days and counting since my Turbo was unloaded at the San Diego Port from the Glovis Comet. It was released for transport on 10/25, but then it was diverted to "Quality Control" -- where it's remained since. I've inquired with my SA and Porsche Corporate on a daily basis, but apparently, the port will not disclosed the reason for delay -- I'm hoping to find out today. Dates that were committed to release the vehicle for transport have not been met, so there's a big problem here. Would be good to know what it is, so that I can work with the Dealer for alternatives -- doesn't look like I'm receiving the one that I ordered back in May.

That's really too bad and must sap the excitement that you had for so long. Let's hope it was something minor like a scraped rim or something like that.
