Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone. My 1st Porsche has been ordered!

I put in my order today. Unbelievably excited! Estimated July Delivery.

A big thank you to Robert Burgess from Downtown Porsche Toronto.

"911" Model Designation

I was going to go with Carrera White but I can't bring myself to do it.

 

Great spec! You need though to add rear seatbacks and rear console in leather to have a true full leather.

I would also add LSD.

 

What's LSD?

 

sounds like $130-135K Canadian dollars for that order

 

lilimited slip differential

sounds like a great build!!!

bluetooth and univ audio are standard? wow - i love both!!

did they raise the base price to compensate for those options?

 

All I'll say is that the C$ is at par with US$ these days.

 

ah, does that mean Porsche will decrease Canadian pricing for 2011?

 

Base model features between the US and Canada are aligned for 2011 vehicles.

Bose is now optional for Canada as are heated seats just like the US (standard before in Canada). Floor mats, Bluetooth and UAI are now all standard.

Base price was lowered 2% in Canada.

 

Marginally lower but definitely still above US pricing.

 

you watch, within 5-10 years, the U.S price will be higher than Canada's

 

I would love to see that happen but I don't see the C$ at par for more than another year or two max.

I think US$ will go back up especially with new drilling on US coast as well as a US economic recovery. Never underestimate the power of such a dynamic economy.

Regardless, I was very happy with my C$ total.

 

To the OP: never mind on the LSD option. The 4wd already comes w/ LSD - you are set.

 

+ 1 for LSD being standard on the 997.2 c4s. Extremely well spec'd. You will love the looks and feel of natural leather. Did you see one before you went for this option?

 

Headrest crests could be a nice addition to this great car. Only see it when you get in but its still nice.

 

Congrats on the new ride. Very envious, was looking at a 997.1 in that color combination and loved it. Natural Brown is the only other interior color I'd consider other than black. It'll look really, really classy!
