No. The timer stated 10 EST, not the time of the thread title. Maybe there is a mix up somewhere. Another effective marketing ploy?

Edit: They must be reading my post. They just updated their countdown clock for 11 EST. LOL.

No audio for me yet. Just stock footage of different makes.

Tested on multiple devices. Same result. Still 13 minutes until start time though.

The timer did a countdown to 10:15pm EST. And when it ended the stock footage started rolling. But they said 8pm Pacific.

They should have streamed this via youtube, they have the infrastructure for it. The Porsche website doesn't.

It is what it is.

First time I am hearing about car being shown in evening in LA. I figured day time...but it is what it is. I have the stream open

Lol - on first video - they are showing audience and options in background 1 for Chinese and 2 for Spanish.

They introduced Klaus and he started talking about the biggest PCA group in the world in the US so they wanted to launch in California, then it went back to music.

Edit: and now another countdown.

Agree Youtube should have been used.

Weird. I have had the stream up since the timer was on display and didn't see or hear that. New countdown just dropped for 10 minutes.

Yeah it is definitely started and they are having problems. We are likely going to tape delay now. Maybe they couldn't get it to turn over and had to bring another in...lol
