Wow nice. They really want you to buy a new one.

After buying another new Turbo S I haven't received anything...well except my monthly $5K/ statements that come reliably. I asked for allocations for a GT3 RS and a 911 R and was pretty much laughed at. All I hope to receive is an invitation to the new Porsche Experience race track which is only 75 miles from my SoCal house.

Wonder how they (PCNA) source the info to add to their marketing lists? If it is vehicle registration data...great because then I have a chance. Otherwise I don't think I've opted in for any marketing communications from them. And, I've never bought from a Porsche dealership.

^ I'd be curious about this, too. But at what these tchotchkes cost I'm sure some high-dollar MBA marketing types crunched some numbers to come up with the list.. in my case I bought my car 2.5 years ago used from a dealer, AND I visited/drove at the PEC in Atlanta last summer.

Honestly if you have never bought from a dealer (new or used) then I'd be very surprised if you would get one..

I'm sure their data indicates that the number of people buying NEW from a dealer at a 150K (minimum) entry price point for the very FIRST time is very very small..
