Default '10 GT3-RS -- Wait is unbearable!!!!

I'm still waiting for my '10 GT3-RS. Last week it was at the port in
Baltimore and now it waits for some kind of certification. I have the
VIN number etc., The wait is getting unbearable. Its going to
Detailing Dynamics up in Long Island on a flatbed as soon as it
leaves the dealer.

Enclosed is the dump of the dealers' screen spec'ing the car. How
many people here already have their cars delivered in the US??

The wait sucks but you'll forget about it as soon as that engine rev up.

They are all on port-hold. Little birdie says they will be released today. Don't blame me if not.

Finger crossed.

What does the system show as today's status? Mine is there with yours. Mine showed "INVCRD" a few days ago.

This is not good! Mine is on the boat due to arrive Baltimore 3/24/10. I was hoping to get feedback from the folks that got the 2/16/10 boat that I missed. Based on what your telling me, I could be a month out still. Wow!

I'm completely clueless as the "status" report from the dealer for the last week has always
been, "at the baltimore port awaiting porsche clearance". I figured out that I should start
concentrating on something else and let the car get to me when it gets to me....in an email
earlier today, i was given to understand that the car will get to the dealer definitely before
the end of the month.

My dealer says it will still be there before the end of the month and another week or 2 to put the roll bar, seat belts and wrap on by C2 Design.

This season I will spend more time at the track (gokart + car) and hopefully next season I will
race. Am a founding member of Monticello Motor Club.

Congrats on your ride! I'll be at Detailing Dynamics about the middle of April. My new .2 GT3 has been sitting in my garage with 3 miles on it since Dec.; there's too much salt on the roads here still. I live Upstate.

Matt and Eddie at DD are great! Also congrats on the Monticello Club. I hear great things about the track An acquaintance helped with some instructing there about a year ago.

Congratulations on the incoming car!

Grey/Red? or Grey/Gold?


If you have the VIN, let me know what it is, and I'll list your car with the others, here:

instead of on this page:

Have fun at Monticello with it! post pics!
