You must have gotten mine. I didn’t get anything. Got a pen with the cayenne but pay 60k more and nothing…

I was wondering when someone would post about this. I hope the build quality my my real car is better. The guys on the assembly line for this car (my son and I) are clearly under trained and under qualified.

Same. It's still sitting in the box in a drawer....

+1 for a pen in the mail. But hey, with this one I also got two ink refills. How about them apples huh? Last year when I got the Panamera pen it didn't include any refills. I'm a somebody now though! So proud.....oof

My dealer gave me a pen and a leather key chain with the Porsche gold emblem. More importantly they gave me good service when ordering the car. Plus they gave me 3 yr collision deductible payment up to 500 for all vehicles in my household, 12 month/15K mile tire and wheel protection, and 12 month /15K paintless dent repair all free.

Other than the Christophorus magazine, I have not received anything yet from Porsche.

When did you guys get these gifts? Before or after delivery of your cars? My car is on a ship that should arrive at the port in the next day or two. I have not received any gifts yet. The model car looks great!

Received my fantastical magic pen about 2 weeks-ish after I got my car.

I got it while it’s being built. I haven’t received delivery of the car yet.

I prefer it the other way. Get the car, then the magical pen

I really want that model car! I wonder whether the SA has any input as to who gets gifts.

I doubt it came from my SA or input from them. It looked like it came from Porsche NA and Atlanta.

I get random things from Porsche since I bought the 991.2; over the years it's been a weird little soap sized panamera "model", a couple pens, a golf tee. Haven't seen this model yet.

i received the same model that people received here. I asked my SA about it and he said they do this from time to time.

Happy to receive small gift. My car hasn't hit the factory yet and actual delivery date is still variable for my PTS Targa 4 GTS. Mine was ordered November 2022
