It is the actual registration to the car. You used to be able to take it home, now it is required to be left as documentation for importation. It looks like this, but because it is tourist registration it is more book like and translated into multiple languages. Its how you prove ownership as you travel from country to country in the EU.

I know, but it’s something you can easily do aftermarket. Top stripes in green also look amazing!

Thank you... sure they will explain this in Leipzig, but great to go into knowing what to expect, and I hadn't heard of this before now

Awesome! and thank you, I know it will be a trip of a lifetime. I think I know the answer, but did you have a favorite between the two experiences?

I haven't done a European Delivery since 2019, so it will be interesting to hear if anything has changed.

Yes I did. Thanks, Scott. My recollection of what I was told is that it was--at least then, this was years ago--illegal to force a customer to buy something he or she did not want to buy in order to get the thing he or she did want to buy. My recollection is this is illegal tying.

God bless you,

Very sorry for that. It seems really unfair. Just to be clear, I'm not an attorney, let alone an antitrust attorney. That's why I asked @Scott P to weigh in on this subject.

Doesn't Porsche know that this thread has over 5K posts from future owners eager to get their hands on their T's... how is it possible we do not have the first T owner on this thread?? So disappointing haha
