Today I went down to HBL Porsche near Tysons Corner, VA and placed an order for a 2.7, Ruby Red w/ Sand, Bi-Xenons, Bose, PCM, heated seats, mats, colored crests on 17" wheels. Just enough technology to make it interesting, otherwise keeping it pure with the 5-speed, distinctive engine note and great ride and handling on the basic tire/wheel combo. I can modify the order up to the beginning of September if I decide to go crazy with options but I like my basic setup.

Wife liked the basic demo model (her first time in a Cayman), we bashed around the back roads near Wolf Trap and she was hooked. Got about 8% off MSRP.

NOW MY QUESTION: Mfr date is mid-late September. I am very tempted to do German delivery, may be Oktoberfest time in Munich around then! Has anyone done German delivery? Is it like the BMW experience (which I understand from my friend is the gold standard, with the museum pick-up area, etc)? I have frequent flyer miles I need to use or lose.
