Re: Did You Get Your PPP In The Mail? WOW!
Free keyring! HaHa. I think I got "NC" for my floor matts. We're lucky guys!
What's "missing" is a DVD of the new car. Not shown (photo is cropped) is a pocket in the cover flap which is perfect for a DVD but instead has a same size 4 page promo pamphlet.
Gotta go..., trying to find some paper which might blow away to see of it works.

I got mine Monday. It shows my name and "Badge No 5308". Pretty nice, if you bought something like this from the dealer it would probably cost at least $25 (and it wouldn't have your name on it). The day before I received in the mail a little booklet about designing the next Porsche. It gave me a personal code that allows me to sign onto the PCNA website and get some "exclusive" info about the upcoming Panamera. Haven't done it yet, I don't have a lot of interest in the Panamera.

A very impressive marketing trinket
What's really FUNNY?????
When I got it in my grubby little hands and started opening it, I was thinking, "Hummmm..., this is HEAVY: must be something good!"
Visions of a wrist watch floated by. Finally got it open and found this "crummy" paperweight, nevertheless it was a highlight of the afternoon mail call.
LOL.
"Impressive, " indeed!

You lucky things !!!
I got half a tank of fuel and a crappy key ring with my new 997.2 !!
When we collected our new car a couple of years ago we were even refused two key fobs (wanted them so we could identify the two keys for the seat memories) and was told that as they had given us free floor mats they couldn't give us a free second key fob (that thy were selling for Pounds2. I went into shipyard-ballistic mode and was given a leather pouch for the second key just to shut me up.
We in the UK get no discount whatsoever, either, to add insult to injury.We did get a full tank of fuel when we collected the car from the factory however.
Maybe with Porsche sales flagging (like all luxury goods at the moment) the time will come when they will regret their arrogant and complacent attitude towards customers.

You know, I had read your comment before I got mine and still dug into that pocket hoping there WAS a DVD and that they merely forgot to put one in yours.
Nope , just the useless " brochure " with a couple of stock photos of the C4/S already seen everywhere on the net.
If they went through all this expense and bother ,even picking that soft velveteen paper box material , they could have SOLD MORE CARS TO CURRENT OWNERS with a DVD showing the new cars in action plus having a much more sophisticated and color accurate " build your own " feature than the one online .
A marketing faux pas ,IMO.

AWGGGGGGH!!! I WANT A DVD!!!!!!!
You're right. A DVD would have been fun thing to pop into the TV, and watch a little Porsche action. Would have "solidified" (?) the excitement produced by the PPP.
Then again, after one watching, the thing would be relegated to the dust pile.
At least the PPP has a chance of winding up on your desk (maybe for as long as a decade!) for other potential buyers to see.
