BjoernB:The question is more can they be reproduced ? I thought they have stopped by now.....but I am not sure
These cars on the truck were very likely customer cars and I am pretty confident that the customers will get their (ordered) car but it may take a while now.

DuckieRS:As RC stated I'm pretty confident the orders will be honoured. Would've been more difficult had a PTS colour been involved.

Kobalt:I can imagine the call from the Porsche sales guy:
"Uhum, there has been a little accident with you car.
Yes the car you insisted on getting just in time for the summer...
It will probably be slightly delayed, sorry."Not fun at all.
Sh1t happens. Those GT4 boys will be throwing there handbags for sure, you ask bluelines ...
Is that black one at the front underneath a GT4 ?..

Any likelyhood they'll simply repair the damaged cars? Some may only be cosmetic (rear bumper on the carmine red one)?

For sure, I reckon. Delivered to the OPC's for inspection to see.

MineisanRS964:My car was finished two weeks ago and is supposed on its way to Belgium... Any idea where the crash happened and where it was heading ?!!!
I'm shocked
It happened just east of Dortmund, which isn't on a direct route from Stuttgart to Belgium, so you should hopefully be OK.

Grant:MineisanRS964:Ok I have the confirmation: my car was not on that trailer
Nice!
Thanks Grant!
I also received a letter today, confirming the car is in its final production phase... Strange, the dealer told me that 3 weeks ago... I don't know what to expect in terms of delivery time. Does anyone know?

That white protection wrap they put on them didn't seem to help much.

Grant:watt:Grant:For Watt's attention: I told you PDK is no cure for the road car's tall gearing, "The PDK gearbox is an ideal fit for the GT4 CS, but its leggy ratios annoy, just as they do on many Porsches outside of the 911 GT3/GT3 RS."
When autoquest launches their low R & P, they will have a customer for life Their gt3 bits are nifty too
Watt - I just received details today for a new R&P from BGB's German tuner. New final drive is 4.75:1 from stock 3.888:1 or a lowering of 22% (huge difference). 2nd gear would change from 82 mph to 64 mph. This would be great for me, but way too low for many people...
I calculated that Vmax should only be 149mph at 7,800 (instead of stock 181 @ 7,400 rpm), but they claim 161.5 mph.
So either there is some kind of error or this includes a taller 6th gear.
More details as I learn them...
