yes but I knew about this so no complaints



yes as soon as i take delivery of the car i will hopefully be ordered the miesterschaft super GT exhaust with just the sec 2 connecting pipes (which are included)
if the AIS isn't giving positon you can use this http://www.sailwx.info/

whoops that site is free but hasnt contacted my boat since the 20th...

it is scheduled to dock in Canada today .

then guessing it shoots down to NJ in a day or so ?

good news is from the NEAT port in NJ to the dealer is only 36 miles..

but then once the PDI it at the dealer my SA has to drive it down to meet me at Porsche in Edison which is 56 miles...

It's like you can say to yourself, "in two short weeks or three...it will be here", but it feels like months are passing....ugh.

yeah sandy definitely made time fly by yet went by so slow... i had no power for 2 weeks it was pretty fucked up around here..

once it docks im gonna reach out to my SA again and see if he has more info

its docked in canada.. according to this info only supposed to be docked there for 2 hrs and then head out (idk if that is accurate or not)

then its going to NJ... I cant see canada to NJ via boat taking more than 24 hrs personally?

I thought you received your car already, and were going to share picts? We'll have to live vicariously through you while we wait...

Coping

Going to visit mine at the dealer which is about 1 mile away from me helps me cope with the wait. Unfortunately, since I am taking delivery of a US Spec car in England, I can't just drive it away from the showroom floor.

The dealer had to submit customs paperwork which should return shortly, then they will need to get the vehicle licensing agency to issue a tax disc so I can drive the car on the road. They tell me that I may be able to take her home on Saturday or maybe Monday.

I wonder if the dealer is getting tired of seeing me... lol.... oh well.

Here are a few pics for your viewing pleasure.

I doubt it. I dumbed over $28,000 in my Pontiac GTO bumping it up to 450 rwhp/414 rwtq. It was cool for the first 3 years; however, the older I got, the more uncomfortable it got. The car was very taxing on me, driving it in traffic.

I promised the wife, I wasn't going to mod this car like I did with the GTO. If I was, I do not think she would have been okay with me getting it.

Thanks. You should ask Pentagon to snap a few pics and send them to you. It's the least they can do after spending $65K+ with them.

Yeah my sales agent is doing just that! he even reminded the center not to drill holes on my front bumper for the plates cuz I'm getting the tow plate holder for it.
