I agree with your statement 100%. I personally like the look of it too.

I hope you have better luck than me, my 911 Cab arrived at Davisville on the 18th of March and it's still sitting there.

I had the same issues in Jax - car arrived on March 17 and didn't leave until April 5. It is ridiculous and very frustrating. I contacted PCNA to complain - they could do nothing; I contacted customer commitment - and they gave me an "I understand your frustration" - NO THEY DON'T. My dealer said the back up in the Panamera's caused everything else to back up.
Will be pulling for you. .

I see - I watched this video from Engineering Explained and I was hoping that semi-slicks might provide a little bit higher G-force, and therefore better acceleration / speed / lateral-G than power kit upgrade: What are your thoughts on it?

My 4S coupe with Power kit option just arrived to the dealer. Looking forward to pick it up on Saturday. Any one else here ordered with power kit and did you receive it yet.

Look forward to hearing your Power Kit opinion Adam. Did you test drive a power kit car before?

Oof. That's a long time. Where is it being delivered to?

This weeks update is something should happen next week for sure ... fingers crossed .... Dealer's hands are tied, it's a PCNA problem .... Frustrated but satisfied as long as there is communication.

Please check your car when it arrives. One reason it could be held up is that they are doing some touch up to it. I don't mean to scare you, but they do a lot of repairs from shipping at the dock. It is a little secret that nobody is suppose to know. Your dealer will never know either.

Tuesday, when I was at Autoport, the longshoreman proudly pointed out that none of the 911s went to the body shop. That was a good delivery.
Just be careful...

Hi guys-
Just picked up my new '17 today! I didn't order. Just did a lot of searching dealer lots. Found this beauty in Chicago (six hours from home) a few weeks ago and put the deal together over the phone. I'm super excited for this car. 991.2, rear drive with a stick. Plus lots of goodies. Let me know what you think of the color combo. I LOVE it!

Thanks
Alec
