i bought out of state, they said that PCNA as a whole states that if you buy the car new then you are entitled to a porsche loaner on service/etc. [...]
also, the only reason i am a porsche owner is because of the "first mile" test drive i took a few years back, because of that drive i bought a 997 911 over other comparable cars, because of that ownership i bought another 997 911 soon there after.. i feel giving porsche loaners would also be in the best interest of porsche because maybe i would like a cayenne as a second car.. or maybe i would like to give the girlfriend a cayman?... the fact is i have thought of both, but i hate going to the dealer and being forced to drive with some guy who wont shutup and wont stop pushing me to buy the damn car.. i dont need a sales guy to buy a car, if i want the car, i buy the car and do my own research.

Mind you, I don't have any mods that impose a points penalty. Evaluating mods requires that a PCA-approved shop do the inspection. A dealer could ask to be put on our PCA-approved list, but it isn't usual.

I think pretty much every Porsche dealer in the UK gives their customers Porsche loaners. Bit of a lottery as to what you might get, but they are always very new and you tend to get somethig fairly close to your own car. My local dealer has a load of 991 customer cars right now, so looking forward to trying one of those next time :-)

My dealer, Porsche of Orlando, has a fleet of Panameras and Cayennes available for any type of service, not just for special occasions or warranty. Also had several 997 Cabs before they were cycled out. Never really thought anything of it until now...
