You should have gotten to this at some point in the process. Post your Porsche Code so we can see the build in the configurator…

Based on these last statements, I recommend you should spend half this amount of money and find a gently used with CPO warranty 911

If this is true this car will end up costing you a lot more than $200K. “911s don’t depreciate.” Baahaahaa!!!! Who you Kiddin’ Willis?

My favorite quote of the 13 year old or chatbot was this one:

“…removing decal and satin black wheels for added speed and agility.



I mean, everybody knows the only true way to add speed and agility to a Porsche is to spec the car in GT Silver. That’s like 25 HP right there. At the wheels, no less. And GT Silver is a weight savings of 50 pounds over all other colors.

OP's responses are getting more and more absurd. These are either great posts by a chat bot or OP is the most naive and obstinate 46 year old with $200K burning a hole in his pocket.

Just for one minute, I'm going to pretend OP and his circumstances are real so I'm going to say this once:

If you think buying a T loaded up with numerous options that are completely contradictory to the ethos of T because you believe that's how you will recoup it all financially as an investment for your family despite all the wisdom and advice that has been imparted on you through your multiple recent new threads but the thing that keeps you up at night are the complaints about little things on an internet forum, then definitely cancel your order. Buy a Toyota TRD SUV and put the rest into mutual funds. I'm 100% dead serious. These toys are investments in personal enjoyment if one can financially afford them. Any financial windfall that may come about at resale, after you've deducted all the usual costs of owning an automobile such as maintenance, insurance, and registration fees, is simply a bonus.

He is not asking for advice. He is selling it.

A month?

Because, if that is your annual income, and you have 4 kids to support and put through college, the fact is that you can't afford a Porsche branded baseball cap, let alone a car that cost about 5 times your annual take home pay. Even a a state school today, you are looking at $200K/kid all in for 4 years tuition, room and board, books, beer and other living expenses, You can easily double that at a private school.

P.S.: no adult living in the States writes it as $60 USD.

So this is not a real person. Just someone who is having fun on the internet. Can we please lock this thread now?

For a second I was concerned that this is for real, as OP posted several questions for the last months about configuration / delivery / allocation. After this post, though, I have to admit, that was a good troll, for real

Have you had the WNT1 PCM update applied? Mine was in June and i haven't had an issue since (Before it might forget multiple times a day, remember for a couple days or max, 2-3 weeks. Could never figure out a pattern)

Forgot to add quote in previous post for context, couldn't figure out how to delete or easily add quote.
