CJ,

Is it too late to get on the list? I'm a local buyer. Santa Maria to be exact. And, I'm a track guy that actually drives his cars 95k on my '13 GT-R so I'd definitely be seeing you guys on a regular basis for service.

I wish I would've put my name down a long time ago, but didn't know I'd ever get to realize my dream until recently.

Thanks,

Jon

I was not talking about insider scoops revealing product timelines etc. Give me a little credit. LOL

Was talking about more nuts and bolts things about already released products. Like new round of allocations released, PTS window for model x open, manual on GT3 available to order. Many of us at small dealers have a difficult time getting even basic information at times. Again just a thought.

Thanks

THIS! This is exactly the way a dealership should be run! Transparent and fair all the way.

Keep it up, CJ. I hope this sets a precedent for others to follow.

Well done C.J. When my timing for a GT car is right, I'll be ordering asap. Also, set up the Porsche Fresno parts website, and you'll pick up a large # of loyal RL's.

One small edit to this list, C.J.

Makes funny Hitler videos: 10 points

Other than that, the process looks solid.

Seems fair! Wish I wasn't on the other side of the country!

What a great way to conduct business. Wish you had an east coast dealership.

Good luck! Being on the east coast I can't help locally but will keep my eyes open for the parts business and potential for future orders that may not be allocation restricted.

Does that means you'll add bonus points for ordering a Panny Wagon?

FTFY. I'm embarrassed to tell you how much I just paid to have the oil changed and brake fluid flushed on my C2S at my dealer. Seriously, I wouldn't even tell my wife.
