Went out that way again yesterday, didn't see any signs that the Case dealership was shutdown, they still had equipment on display and no signage changes or anything.

 

So I got confirmation from Porsche Oakville that they have purchased land for a full service dealership in KW and that plans are still going ahead but they don't know when the ground breaking will be, so could be 6 months or could be 6 years.

 

I don't see a lot of progress at the St Catharines location... Does anyone have any updates?

 

With Covid I imagine dealerships are tightening up on the $$.

 

Got an email from Oakville Porsche today...the website is up for the new KW dealer:

odd location, i would have thought it would be up on Shirley with Audi and Acura.

But glad to see its going forward..

 

The KW dealership broke ground on the 15th July with opening sometime in 2022

"With the addition of Porsche Centre Kitchener-Waterloo in 2022, Policaro Group also plans to bring Porsche to the Niagara Region in 2023."

It's right beside the merc dealer.

 

Yeah, got the same email.

Saw a 959 today at their Oakville site...lots of people drooling and taking pics.

 

That's exciting!

 

was it that old red one that has been doing the circuit forever ??

 

Found out KW dealer only opening late 2023.

 

Yup, heard the same when I had mine in for service at oakville a couple months ago. Delays due to pandemic is what they said but they're still committed to the kw market.

 

will be nice to have a local dealer...

gotta think UCR is due to fragment soon, as it is so large and now we have so many dealers.
i could see oakville and west supporting sw ontario chapter

id be surprised if one reappeared in St Catherine's. Im sure Porsche and the Policaro group is fully aware of the recession barreling our way..

 

Out of curiosity, what is UCR's span and reach in Ontario? I know Ottawa is part of Rennsport Region, but what about everything and everyone else?
