You guys are always ahead. I've seen 292 before running out of road. No Autobahn here.
As of right now, I will not be able to make the trip out ;/

Pretty sure ME provided someone with a base a "stage 0.5" tune which backs off the big torque increase of the stage 1 tune. I was asking ME for this awhile ago because I don't want to lose the natural powerband but just bump it up across the board. The person with the stage .5 loved it, just forget what thread it was where I read it. I'm waiting for the ME new wireless connection that supposedly is being developed.

Anyone get the 4-way seats and end up regretting it? I test drove a base and while they dont have thigh support or the ability to tilt, they seem good enough at least on a test drive.

I have the Macan 18 ways which are some of the most comfortable seats Porsche makes and I love my 4 ways in comparison. My longest trip so far has been 8hrs and they were excellent. I also love how light they are and the manual function, which to me, adds to the car.

Yeah, I have the LWBs in my current car and I added a bracket to tilt it back a bit but now they are great and support my thighs well (I'm 6'1", 215lbs).

Can you add similar brackets to the four ways as my longer legs kind of leave my thighs hanging in the air?

Hey all I just wanted to pop on in here after it is been some time and say if any of you are still looking for 911's or T's Porsche of Albuquerque is willing to work with people from out of state to sell cars. So go ahead and give them a call and see what they can do for you if you are looking or anyone you know is looking, just tell them Aurum Burrell referred you and was told by Aurum to call you and he said that Porsche of Abq was exceptional (they were, and are) I recommend going through David Baeza, but all the other sales ambassadors are amazing and very capable. Also, I am in no way doing this for any sort of gain or advertisement, I believe that quality people and reputable dealerships in this day and age should be celebrated, and get more sales as I would work with them again.

(hint hint it is a possibility you might be able to get MSRP for a T or some 911 car, might not work as easily, on the gt3 or Rs but still viable. You can try and Negotiate that you will load your car with options, to avoid the addendum, or do European delivery so they get another allocation of the same car, showing your support for the dealership, to try and not get an addendum. Also, stack your car with options (my car was 153k originally) some options were rejected then it came out to 143k, and out the door, with everything tax title and extras it was 151k) the base price was 116k to put it in perspective. how much you might need to stack your car, but I hope some of you are able to get more Porsche cars.
