This was Jack Daniels Motors, they assured me the allocation was pulled and there was nothing they could do.

Well they said they had one and confirmed all the dates in writing re: production delivery etc.

Made a prelim call to PCNA they did not want to get involved. Should I write to Porsche AG, deal with the liason from PCA dig up some info at the next DE event etc. or plce an ad in Panorama?

His black RS showed up last month. Don't take this schit. I highly doubt that PCNA would pull an alocation from a dealer because they for sure know that the car would be already sold and the buyer would be punished for something the dealer did.
And then again, the dealer may not have had an alocation at all.

How can PCNA say they don't want to get involved - if they pulled the allocation as the dealer is implying they are involved. You need to get seriously on the case.

Porsche AG won't get involved with PCNA. Been there.

PCNA will get with dealers. Been there, too -- but in a negative way.

If I didn't love the cars and respect the designers, I wouldn't deal with any of these SOBs.

The guy's name is Schwarzenbauer. You might have a better shot with the correct name.
I have seen a number of these posts about the dealer said this and did that, and certainly if the dealer is guilty I'm not going to defend him, but as the stories play out there is often some hidden piece of information that has been omitted in the original telling.
Hope it works out for the buyer.

Well in my case it's all documented via e-mail, so there is clearly a trail of specific information besides the original conditional deposit and the more recent deposit. Nothing was fabricated or misconstrued on my end, hope they realize that.

Who are you suggesting I e-mail?

I have never been in a position or needed to contact anyone at Porsche. I have always had a very easy and pleasant experience with my local dealer. I am not suggesting that "you" did something wrong and if it were me and a dealer unjustly backed out on a firm deal, my hair would be on fire. You have every right to be angry and would be justified in pursuing your case to satisfy your claim. The GM or owner of the dealership would be a good starting point. This forum gets a lot of exposure and I doubt that any dealer would want the negative publicity that something like this can generate. You want to present your case in the best light and get the result you want. Good luck.
