Today I received an online Porsche questionary about my purchase.. The following question cracked me up.. a bit different than the usual available answers you see..

F4. Please indicate your approximate total annual household income, from all sources (before taxes)?
below $ 100,000
$ 100,000 to less than $ 200,000
$ 200,000 to less than $ 300,000
$ 300,000 to less than $ 400,000
$ 400,000 to less than $ 500,000
$ 500,000 to less than $ 600,000
$ 600,000 to less than $ 700,000
$ 700,000 to less than $ 800,000
$ 800,000 to less than $ 900,000
$ 900,000 to less than $ 1,000,000
$ 1,000,000 to less than $ 1,250,000
$ 1,250,000 to less than $ 1,500,000
$ 1,500,000 or more

 

Yep I got that too ...it's to see so many brackets with ranges...typically these surveys have only 2 to 3...this gives an idea of Porsche owners demographics

 

Weird....I've received at least 5 different Porsche purchase surveys in the past month.

That's probably our run amuck IRS asking question F4

 

I just got the survey today. I had my 991 at the dealer last week for the first service.

 

I just got that, too. I thought that question looked pretty funny as well. My wife and I had just filled out a form at Home Depot or somewhere like that, can't remember exactly what store it was, but the answer options were quite a bit different.

 

Doe ANYBODY actually answer that question. I've been asked that question many times. Never have answered it.

 

My policy also (except for mortgage application).

I picked a category that might get me 918 marketing materials- as close as I am likely to get to one.

I too found that to be funny. I never respond to those kinds of questions. None of their business. Keep building incredible cars and maybe I will buy another.

You're about to get a lifetime membership to Philanthropic Magazine.

Generally don't answer these types of questions unless is to get money! But i have to say chuckbdc - you have a great idea

 

Materials, is a personal phone call from your assigned 918 rep. They then mailed me a package. Here's the email:
