This reminds me of waiting on auto body shops....

"It'll be done by Friday." To which you have to answer, "Friday of which week, of which month, of which year?"

Yep. I ordered 3 of them in July for Christmas gifts. After 3 emails from Amazon stating they were delayed, most recently until 2-2012 I cancelled. Bummer, would have made excellent Holiday stocking stuffers.....

Great find - thanks for the post.

I wonder if Metzger is struggling with getting his book "approved" by Porsche and their lawyers? The other likely candidate is of course health reasons...

Can't wait to read this book. He is a legend...
