As I previously posted the cars should be released first week of Oct according to my dealer who checked with their MB liaison.
Mine is it the port in GA and was told they're stored outdoors.

I have bought many varying PORSCHE cars. They are always a few days ahead of projected dates. Once there was a delay and got almost daily updates up to the point where the car is loaded on the truck enroute to the dealer. Legiimate PORSCHE orders get a V**tracking sheet shown below.

Posted there too BUBBA. I posted here as someone was asking what paper comes when ordering the PORSCHE GT car.

How is your garage queen doing at the port? Better check those flat spots and salt dust eating away at those nutty's and bolt'sies.

Your GT-R will be just in time for winter.

Video of 991 GT3RS versus the AMG GT-R. The AMG GT-R couldn't lose the two year old 991 GT3RS. Hmmmm.........

LINK:

Which one is lousy, is it the AMG GT-R or the driver. We may have to wait for the AMG "Black Series" for better performance

The GTR WAS .3 tenths off of the 998 in Virginia Raceway.......The price differential about $800k....

I'll take the GTR every time!!

In case you forgot, the "P" cars were tied up for many months at the Port VPC's too. They did a great job working 24x7 to deliver all of the back logged cars to their respective owners in less than a week.

You forgot I live in Florida so snow isn't a issue BUT Cat 5 hurricanes are.

See ya Porsche Fan1/Amg Envious

GTR is setting lap records all over.

What's that awful suspension squeaking on that GT3. ?? Lowered and modded ?

Hey Florence, you haven't been fingered yet have you?

In the end it takes a decent driver but there were plenty of times in the video where the Porsche didn't keep up
Difficult driving on an open day where any car can get to drive on the track.

Many thanks!! See if they will provide you with a MB Management name.

You and I have the same next level MB Management (I'm in Jax) and my dealer senior management is hearing crickets like we all are.

That last post rumor or not unnerves me. I truly hope rhese cars haven't been sitting outside for in my case 5 months now and closing in on 6 months at the end of September.

Still no communication from the Private Lounge or MB directly like they promised 2 weeks ago.

Stay safe and put your toys in a high enclosed garage until this thing blows over.

Whuh??? Where did you get the $800K price differential BUBBA? I like what you are smoking SWAN.

NEVER envious about GT, GT-S, GT-C, nor the GT-R. If you are getting the "Black Series", then just MAYBE, I'll give you the props.

But, but, but, when my GT2RS arrives, then I'll just have to use your GT-R to mop the skid marks my GT2RS will leave on the tracks.

I would NOT dare exchange my Cayenne diesel with your GT-R BUBBA.

Hey, hey, hey ROMEOE55 aka QUACK Outlaw, howdy doody !?!?! Are you ready to race my Viper ACR against your base and cheap GT?

Here is a film you'll like BUBBA:


Here is the finger I get from all my COOL PORSCHE GT cars.

Yes Wolfman, too many wannabes at the track and serves more of a distraction on the GT-R and 991.1 GT3RS. Keep in mind the GT-R is twin-turbo V-8 (athlete on steroids), whereas the 991.1 GT3RS is "Naturally Aspirated" Flat-6. in other words, Unadulterated Pure Athlete. Plus it is a two year old car that cannot be left behind by a much newer car.

Yo, yo, yo, did you get a PORSCHE yet BUBBA?

TROLL-LAH-LAH-LAH.

In the beginning of the video is where the GT-R was "allowed" by the 991.1 GT3RS driver to overtake.

The fact of the matter is very simple. The GT-R is a twin-turbo V-8 racing against a two-year old 991 GT3RS "Naturally Aspirated" Flat-6 engine.

Clearly the GT-R may have "leap frog" the 991.1 GT3RS. My point is having a bigger engine and two year newer, the GT-R should have kicked the butt of the 991.1 GT3RS, but IT DID NOT.

The 991.2 GT3RS will be coming out soon hopefully by 2018 as a 2019 model. Then we will witness how the new 991.2 will use the GT-R as a mop to wipe off the skid marks it will leave on the tracks by the 991.2 GT3RS.

When do you want to race my Viper-ACR Extreme BUBBA? Would love to use your base GT to mop the skid marks my Viper-ACR Extreme will leave on the track.

Here you go again when you A$$-ume the 991.1 GT3RS was modded. I like what you are smoking BUBBA.

Yo ROMEOE55 aka Quack Outlaw, this is all you will see when you race my Viper ACR-Extreme. 100% rear-end of my Viper-ACR. Whenever you'll race my Viper ACR-Extreme is when you'll truly admire how this latest American muscle car holds the Nurburgring record among many American muscle cars.

We cool Homie. I thought you were giving me a hard time like ROMEOE55 aka Quack Outlaw and SWAN. They are trying to be AMG diehard.

No problem here Homie.

I hate to break it to you but the Viper is/was made in CANADA 🇨🇦

I have a friend that has a silver one and we like to play.


As far as you wiping anything, you'll have to get out of your diapers and into your BIG BOY pants on first.

Well the storm won't help anything but tomorrow is essentially the last day in "next week." Hopefully he meant the following week ,Friday 9/15.

I'm in no real hurry because as I mentioned in another post if they have been outside for almost 6 months now, they just may float by Jacksonville when the eye of hurricane Irma passes over the Bruswick MB VPC.

What's amusing is Florence claims his Prized P cars which have and will drop like anchors in price are superior in every way speed wise, yet both are getting beat badly on track by AMG at 1/2 $.

And then there always comes the Viper reference which also got beat by GTR.

What's curious is the repetitive narrative, which reminds me of early elder disorders.

All of you in Florida ( Swan and Emeric) stay safe guys. The storm is about as fast as these cars ...

And Jerry, yes I meant next week from a quality source outside any dealers.

Well Monday Tuesday will be the worst here. You should get lots ans lots of real hard rain and wind. But we'll all survive I am sure.

As I am sure you are aware, people go absolutely crazy with these storms!!

GTR-- I would hope it is late next week. But I am real nervous about the GTR's being outside all this time comment from the guy from Palm Beach. IF IT'S TRUE, NOT GOOD!!

COTA-- I will be buying you that steak if I can get there.


Best Regards
