Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)
spudgun:nberry:the-missile:nberry:Nick, you mean they build the car with the plastic dash and remove it for the leather across the street? Or are you only referring to the steering column and door panel leather?
Extended dashboard in leather means: chrono and center vents covered instead of blcak plastic, and the speakers covers and the windshield defroster plastic part.
steering column and the extended doors which are additional leather and alcantara parts are not done on the line as well.
all of this will be classic plastic parts and then moved to exclusive for replacement.
at excluisve, only a small team work and those guys will dismantle the plastic parts and replace by the leather ones, supplied by third party. my car stayed 2 months there...the supplier messed with combination of material.
Thanks for he information. My last three Porsche’s were similarly optioned and never encountered any delays. My dealer described my car as nothing more than a standard order. Oh well live and learn. Customers that order money making options for Porsche get screwed.
Relax. You’ll get your car, albeit with some delay.
Would you like us to pray and light candles in the church? Do you have close friends and relatives who can help you through these hard times or should this community step up, travel down and come hold your hand?
Hey smart ass I have a .2GT3 to keep me happy.
What I found irritating is Porsche knew my spec's and nevertheless gave me my expected dates earlier than I anticipated. If what I ordered was a problem or would cause delays Porsche could have given me later expected dates. They didn't and incredibly moved my expected dates even further up.
As I watched posters with similar build dates for their cars being built and headed to Emden, my car which entered the body shop on July 11th didn't move. After two weeks of no movement I needed answers. As did my dealer because he was puzzled by the delay and elevated it to PCNA and PAG. Both PAG and PCNA informed my dealer that my car will exit Zuffenhausen on July 27th and be taken to the exclusive shop. As of today, it hasn't exiting Zufdfenhausen.
Now I realize some people ( like you) will not question Porsche in fear of offending them and instead lick their rear end, I am not that way. Porsche is not doing me any favors. I am doing Porsche a favor by giving them my business.
