Default 21 days left to get my 991RS at factory

The ED package is here, and all arrangements made. This of course probably means something will go wrong!…

The car will go to Schwabenfolia in Stuttgart within an hour of delivery to be wrapped,and then off to Zell am See for International Porsche Tage….

That is so cool. Cant wait to read a story about your adventure and see some pics of course.

Here is hoping that nothing will go wrong this time.

If it arrives in Canada before the weather turns I will bring it out to a GTG..hard to say yet. I drop it back to factory in Zuffenhausen on Sep 22, so all depends on how long it takes to ship it and deliver to DFC.

Best chance is always to drop it off right in Zuffenhausen. There are multiple drop points, but they all add time to getting the car shipped.

I drove Zell Am See a few years ago...albeit in a TT. I think you're experience will be better...

Definitely have a beer at the top. There's a charming stone house that's a bar.

Well, five days at the Nurburgring and a day at Sachsenring do have a degree of risk, but.....not much point in ED for me without it............

Does ED stand for something else?
