Default Carrera GTS

Hmmmmm, Look at what I saw at Boardwalk Porsche while I was there picking up some parts for my car.......a NEW GTS, unclaimed, ready for someone just come get it..

And while I was there, one of the Prince of Saudi Arabia had his car at the dealership. Its been there for 10 months getting some work done. He shipped it to them ealier this year. I am being told that he was offered $2M and he turned it down. MUST BE NICE!

Impressed with the 959's performance, but never found it attractive.

I wouldn't imagine a prince would care how much someone offered for one of their cars.. money isn't exactly a concern to them

I'm glad I wasn't there with you for I would have pooped my pants seeing both of those fine machines next to each other.

I'm sorry, but that is the most ridiculous question. Why would we wait at all and then give up our custom order for some Joe Salesman configuration?

You could spend $2M and STILL not get all the smell of camels out of the back seats...

Most buyer never get to learn that the wait for a custom built Porsche is half the fun
