I've been REALLY REALLY REALLY struggling between Sport design and Carrera Classic wheels? I could use some help from you guys...

My build is Basalt Black Metallic with 2-tone pebble grey/agate grey interior (for those of you who haven't seen the two tone, the pebble is almost a white...the configurater doesn't do it justice) and I will have aluminum trim.

Any pics are welcome and what you've got would be great!

Help? Lol.

Days will pas quickly and your nice looking C4S will definitely arrive very soon

PCNA have at times been great and sometimes not so but its all about people. Get the wrong person and it wrecks the experience. I'm sure we've all had similar things happen to us with all sorts of organizations.

Fact is that the car is going to be superb and as others have mentioned it'll be worth the current hassle. Take care friend.

An acquaintance in Seattle ordered same week with similar options (X51) and he got his car Mid December. The Canadian market gets very few production slots but then we only buy less than 10% of what the US market absorbs. Very frustrating to me as this is my 13th Porsche and its going to take something like 165+ days from order to receipt.

It's almost more about the (seeming) lack of respect than the fact that your car is going to be delayed a few more days.

I'd talk to the GM or owner and explain what's happening, how you feel about it and that you are calling on him to rectify the situation ASAP... mentioning that the issue is being discussed on a very active and high-flow traffic forum will perhaps peek his "invested" interest.

It could simply be a matter of red tape at customs or (as has happened at my dealer) miscommunication with the transport company... regardless, you should be made to feel like everything is being done to actively deal with the issue.

You may not be feeling the "love" from the dealer right now but I think (judging from the outpouring of support here) your 6speed brothers are here for ya!

Come on... you're part of the family, there's no way we're letting you jump ship now!

Hang in there buddy!!

Guys keep in mind the dealer has no control over the process Porsche does what they want. I have a car the has been completed on the 8th still waiting to get on vessel. It is just as frustrating for dealers. Trust me we want to get cars to our clients ASAP.
