European Delivery/Tourist Delivery
My tourist delivery date (not fast enough) approaching, I started to chronicle the wait, the delivery and the subsequent road trip on a blog. Here are the first few blog entries:
- European Delivery of my 2013 Porsche Boxster S: The Prologue
- European Delivery of my 2013 Porsche Boxster S: The Program
- Inching closer to the delivery date: Of Packages and Order Status Codes
- Searching the Web for interesting road trips & experiences with the Tourist Delivery
- Update on the Order Status and Hotel booking
- A new Racing Yellow Boxster S has been "born"
Feedback, wishes, suggestions are welcome.
Enjoy
Mike

The planned Itinerary
Since we are getting very close to the delivery this Friday, I posted the current itinerary:
The planned Itinerary
We have a few stops that we have to hit, but inbetween we are fairly free. So if anyone has any additional recommendations, we will consider them, but will have to trade them off against some of the items we have planned.

A short teaser of driving a few curves on the "boring" side of Stelvio with good sound:

It is good to see a middle age couple having fun with yellow boxster
sound is incredible...
