Stop on certain cars?
I just saw this posted on FB. Anyone know anything about this?
So Porsche has put what they call a stop on certain cars which includes mine some other 911’s I believe and Macan’s… the dealer has just told me it’s a material defect and the earliest we will hear anything is 8th November. Who knows what happens after that 🤷♂️

thanks, i'll map this out and see!
yeah, i know mechanically i don't have much to worry about. I guess more of if something freaky happens like hitting debris, an animal, a tire blowout, whatever. it'd be a looooong tow from some places. I know I know, chances are infinitely small, but **** happens. have to at least think about it.
But actually, as i started to map some these routes out, it hit me that these are in the mountains. I'm taking delivery on 12/3. checked out average temps are around 27 low 47 high in those areas. Driving on summer tires... i'm going to have to keep an eye out on temps and conditions. May have to have a couple alternate paths just in case.

I should add that I set the Navigation on "Avoid Highways"; that found us the back roads, such as US 74 into Chimney Rock. That was a great road actually.
What I've always done to find back roads is to set the GPS on "avoid highways", then pick certain small towns on the road you want to travel as way points. This doesn't always work if the town in question is not in the GPS data base.

My car arrived at Emden 10/14. Got scheduled on Mediteranian Highway loading tomorrow. Arrival date in Austin has been moved up to 11/19. "Discover your Phase" still showing "scheduled for production" but TYD is updated. So I never got any pictures.

Hooray for you and me! What Dealer is your car going to? Mine is going to Warrington, PA... then scheduled for PPF so it will probably still be a week or two before I get to bring the car home.
