Best place/way to suggest new forum / discussion area? (European Delivery Forum)
European Delivery and or Porsche Experience CenterThis forum to ask questions and get answers about collecting your Porsche in Europe or the outstanding Porsche Experience Center.
Here. Let us trash your choice, oh I mean hash it out. What do you got?
New Forum / Discussion Area: "European Delivery Program"
Why? Because having one unified place used by all members to post their questions, experiences, photos, routes etc. would benefit the entire community.
As a 'lurker' (until I ordered my ED TTS), I would scour the site looking for ED information...and find TONS of it...in the 997 area, in the 991...981....etc. etc. Now with the countdown (2m16d left), I find myself jumping discussion area to discussion area to read about Mary's ED TT then to another to read about Bill's ED GT4 and then to another to read about Paul's ED C2S.
If there was a single forum/area that everyone used, info retrieval would be easier..duplication of questions would be reduced 10-fold...and members info/suggestions would be current/fresh and in chronological order.
And if we are super lucky, Jamie will post new tidbits/suggestions/etc. for the community to revel in..
Lastly, European Delivery is an exciting topic/experience for everyone...members' experiences help the rest of us in our dreams (and take us along for ride-alongs with their photos/videos/narratives) and then, when we finally can make the dreams really happen, the info and past experiences of our community are priceless for our planning purposes....isn't this worthy of a separate forum/area? Sure the search engine is great...but a separate and dedicated forum would be amazing.

Ok, I'm ready for criticism ...
Wow, great idea. I'm for it. Can't even think of anything to criticize. Have told my wife that when the kiddos are all gone (about 12 years from now) that the ED option would be a great way to see Europe.

My wife and I were married last month...the deal was: She gets WHATEVER she wants for the wedding...but the honeymoon is all me.
We figured to do the Euro Delivery / 2wk Trip BEFORE the baby(ies) come...

Shoot a PM to BTO (Bob Rouleau) or one of the many forum moderators, like Gretch, 911 Slow, etc
If there was a separate ED forum, you wouldn't stumble upon hits involving this in your ED searches, could save you some embarrassment with the new wife (congratulations, btw!):
Send a PM to BTO (Bob The Owner/Bob Rouleau - not sure of spelling) or that miserable old sod Gretch. If they likey, they'll make it happen.
I suggest you name it the "E.D. Forum". You'll get more hits from us old farts looking for uh, um. Oh, exciting European Deliveries.
EDIT: Beat by 2 minutes.

Oh god...should have written Euro Delivery instead of ED....already seeing everyone having a field day...
BTW...sent a PM to BTO....will wait a few days until this thread has some legs/support and then will send PMs to Gretch/911 Slow too
Thanks (from my wife) for the congratulations on the wedding...most are congratulating me on the new car
Don't expect a lot from SLOW. He's in Greece, and printing drachmas before they leave the EU. I figure after about 6 months he'll have a buck two eighty.
Wife is stationed in Germany, considered an ED myself (I AM pushing 50!)
I have family outside of Stuttgart so it's going to be a honeymoon (1st) slash family visit (2nd) slash European Delivery (3rd) (at least that's what I'm telling everyone...cause picking up a custom TTS can't be more important than your honeymoon or eating fruit cake right?
