Default Package from Porsche

I know there is a thread on this already but I cannot find it. Did some of you say that you get a package in the mail sometime after delivery containing some kind of book and a key chain or pen. Did I dream this, if there is such a thing how long after delivery does it come?

I think you are referring to this: https://rennlist.com/forums/992/1162...l#post17297378. I received one too, I think a few months later.

Here is what I received. BUT, I had to write a letter. "Dear President of Porsche of America, . . . . ."
Calling the "Help Desk" was absolutely no help at all. I called several times over the course of several months. Within a few weeks of my letter a package arrived.

It’s just a box of junk. The pen is terrible.

I got mine about 6 weeks after delivery. If you didn’t get, you aren’t missing much. Would have preferred a Porsche T-shirt.

T shirt or hat would have been nice.

haha... I love that people that buy $150k cars get obsessive about getting a pen in the mail that costs more to ship than it is worth....

Yes, after the purchase of my last Porsche in '19 I received this cool looking box with a nice Porsche pen that did not write and some sales pamphlets with absurdly priced Porsche merchandise. Porsche would be wise to send nothing at all vs. this box of useless crap.

I got a hat - from my father in law, not Porsche - for my birthday this week. But I've only had the car less than 3 weeks. I am hoping for the package. I have one from our Macan. It's not much but whatever.

The "package" is absolutely worthless.

Got the package about 2 months after getting my car. the book about some of the history is kinda cool on my coffee table along with some other design books I have.
