That's horrendous to hear! Talk about killing off the excitement. I hope they resolve the issues quickly and they better give you a hell of a gift to compensate.

Any consolation i have never ever picked up a car without any issues and it’s always been damage on the fricking paint work!


I jus hope this car i pick up is without any issues!

Sad to hear to though

thanks guys, porsche gb are a great bunch and doing what they can,this is a factory issue and need to deal with it,in the current climate with money and business tight its our cars that make it all worth while,they have offered to change the spoiler,live with that,bolt on job but as for the leather items ,dont want the dash removed never the same when messed with.as i said earlier at this level ,600 cars they should be treated as royalty,after all the customers in the uk were picked for being loyal to the brand ''thanks'' my wife recently had her new vw jetta turn up for work ,perfect, not a mark on it,come on porsche dont let your customers down.

Ask for $50k discount then go drive it the way it was meant to be driven.
