Got the new 911 book (very slick) and the Panamera mailer within the last week. Keep it coming, Porsche.

Me neither. Dumb suckers. They probably figured that since I've already ordered a 997.2, I don't need promotional materials anymore.

Got my paper weight today. First promotional material after owning various Porsches since 2000.

Yeah I'm badge number 2353 but I'm disappointed... I asked for consecutive prime numbers.

Jipped.

I got the "low number" 1588 paper weight, does it worth extra?

Next time I go to a Porsche Dealer, I can tell them I am 1588!

I guess thats part of the reason why the cars are so expensive. Porsche makes a profit and still blows all this money on printing hardback, very expensive (with plastic overlay sheets) and glossy brochures to send out to people in hopes of generating a sale. Freaky. I'd be much more excited if they never mailed me any literature but kept track of things and sent me an occasoinal key-ring, or set of rubber floor mats, or a car cover.

Unhappy

Two months later and still nothing. I wonder what the criteria were... should I cancel my order over this? Will they then send me something to win back my business?

Wolfie, that is outragious!!!

Yes, I think you should cancel your order. If that doesn't get their attention within two weeks, then drive your current P-car through the front doors of your nearest dealer and leave a note on the steering wheel which states "I'll be back to pick up my car when my personalized and numbered paperweight arrives. Call me when it comes in!"

Porsche marketing is probably one of the best operations in the world. They still got you to think about the brand.

Gee, all I got in the mail from Porsche recently was a recall notice saying that there might not be enough refrigerant in my air conditioning system.

I never get any of these cool things you all get. I have been buying Porsches since 2000 and 3 of them since 2006. What is the trick to get these cool promo's? I love that personalized paper weight!
