Jennifer,

Best of luck with your beauty. I was checking this thread several times today to see if it was delivered; real glad it made it.

No better way to enjoy the beginning of summer than tooling around in a new Carrera. Oops.....Now I have just given Chris more fuel to comment on my decision to hold off on my purchase.

Enjoy every mile with many smiles.

Mark

I'm shocked that the car was transported in an open trailer.

Guys- everyone is given TWO options for transport. 1) open 2) close. The latter costs more $$ and logistics are typically the bigger issue.

She got a great deal. And a Fantastic car. Dont spin the thread into a 'should have' bit hijacking the thread- It's about enjoyment.

Send your bashing via PM's to ME if you so choose.

Congratulations Jennfier! She's a beaut!!!

So you're saying she wittingly or unwittingly chose the open option?

Its actually the most common way to transport.

Neither. The quickest way to get the her was via open carrier. And it wasn't traveling far. We were quoted a week longer for enclosed. I'm fairly certain she was (based on her thread) excited to *finally* get her shiny Porsche in her hands.

(that and she had paid for it, typically people want what they paid for pretty quickly)
