Hey guys,
My name is Gene McClure with Porsche Atlanta Perimeter.
I just wanted to hop in and tell you guys what a great car you guys have coming!
We had the opportunity to drive one when PCNA brought a C2S to our dealership.
It is fast, very fast. It feels very lively and I really think it is a nice step up above a 991.1. I was very impressed.

I know that doesn't help the agony of waiting, but it will be a great car!

Just to play Devil's advocate.... What else are you going to say? The car sucks, don't buy one?

Well, I probably wouldn't post at all. If I wasn't an enthusiast I wouldn't even be on the forum.

Thanks for sharing! AGONY is not a good way to describe it, its more like waiting on line to go on a ride that you're dieing to experience but the line is 4 to 6 months long! I am only a week and half in and it feels like it has been 2 months.

Ahh. Love the night blue with the aluminum window trim... Mine is night blue, but a cab...

Congratulations and enjoy in good health. Please feel free to post your observations, impressions and pics..

Hi Gene. Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Do you have a sense of when demos will arrive at dealers? Is there an official national launch date or is it up to individual dealers?

Many thanks

Mine is on the ship now. It just moved out of the English Chanel into the North Atlantic. I guess I am looking at another five weeks.

Any dealers near the West Coast that will deal on these. Los Angeles dealers are ridiculous, there is no waiting list, they have allocations and the best I found was $2k off so far.

FYI - Folks in this forum have reported discounts ranging from 3% to 6%+. You may want to check with a forum sponsor...

My sense is that customer orders are not coming in as strong as they would have liked for this model (yet?)... At least on the east coast.

Best of luck... Let us know how you get on.

I think the Cali market is a tad aggressive from everything we see on the board.

You may want to reach out to STG who's helped 1,000s of Rennlisters with his "Hot For Sale Pick of the Week!" Thread.

yes, BlackBeauty is referring to the "hot for sale of the week" sticky thread at the top of the page. It is focused on used cars. I believe you may have inquired about discounts on new cars.

Satellite radio is now standard. Does anyone know if it comes with a "free" trial subscription in the US?
