Okay, I was confused, but you’ve cleared it up for me. The last “print” version of Pano I have is JAN (not FEB), which is why I didn’t see the PTS editorial from Pete Stout until I went to PCA.org and read the FEB online version just now.
Pete’s thinking on paint-to-sample is logical and would be very popular. In other words, it’s not likely to be…[Read more]

Which month’s Pano are you referring to, JD? Latest issue I have is FEB. I don’t see any mention of it in Pete’s column. Do you have MAR already?

Ask the “staff” about setting us up as a Private Group on Facebook. 

The car does NOT come with an Alcantara steering wheel or PDK shift lever.

The blue stitching on the steering wheel is facing the dash, which makes it all but invisible to the casual observer. I’ve pointed out the blue stitching to a couple of people, but you’ve really got to look for it to see it. The red stitching is quite visible, however.
I…[Read more]

You guys should send pics of your plates to Vu Nguyen at PCA. He saw mine and was quite interested in it. Might make a nice visual to have a collection of CC personalized plates.

Josh,

I went to Lavaggio in Agoura Hills. They are an advertiser in my region’s magazine and Dustin Troyen, the founder of Supercar Sunday and Motor4Toys, is their PR guy and a friend of mine. (lavaggio.net)

Lavaggio does a great job on the paint correction. I love Rusnak/Westlake, but they butchered my car “detailing” it before delivery. I…[Read more]

That MARTINI indoor car cover is gorgeous, JD.
I’ve not used a cover in the garage with previous Porsches. Probably won’t with the CC either. But, if I were going to get one, that’d be the one. Awesome.

And today my generic plates arrived from the DMV, so I hit the counter at AAA and swapped the generics for my Environmental Plates. 

What will make these cars “worth more” is their (un)availability. Right now, more than a couple Club Coupes are “in play,” which will keep the resale values very near sticker prices.

Later, perhaps even this time next year, things might be different. However, the 60th Club Coupe is more likely to follow the the pattern of the 50th Club…[Read more]

You’re welcome on the AAA tip. They can handle many DMV services, and any time you can avoid setting foot in the DMV, that’s a very good thing.

I ordered my car with “model designation 911” and that’s how it came! As I may have posted before, my intention was to use the “911” as placement for the “GTS” badging I had in hand, which I swapped in a…[Read more]

Thanks, Alex. I actually ordered just the “911” badging in order to change it out for “GTS.” Made the switch yesterday. Here’s a before/after shot.

Did a “plate test” today. It’ll have to wait until my generic plates come in the mail, then I can swap the generics for the PCA 60 tags. Looks good to me.

Thank you, Timothy. It’s hard to take a bad photo of a Porsche, especially one as gorgeous as a Club Coupe. It doesn’t hurt to have a sky like that to shoot against, either.

Day before Thanksgiving my CC arrived! It was well worth the nine-month wait!
