    Certificate of Origin: Puerto Rico Equipment?

    Howdy Folks,

    I've just returned from vacation to find my COA has arrived, yay!

    As usual it leaves me with just as many questions, rather than provide all the answers, so....

    Does anyone know what the heck "Equipment for Puerto Rico" would be?

    Currently the 911E has been configured to a Euro style configuration, would it have been delivered to Puerto Rico like so?

    The COA:

    Major COA Screw up by Porsche?

    Wow, here is another example of how badly Porsche can screw up a COA...

    While researching the "Puerto Rico" COA I contacted the seller who also ordered a COA from Porsche and his is almost completley different (but in far more accurate).

    I've put a call into Porsche so they can research the two COA's

    COA vs COA for 9112200432

    I'm sure the Italian Delivery COA is the correct one but that Blue interior on the first COA sounded pretty cool

    I do like the look of the blue interior, but was less excited at the thought of having to convert it from Black!
