Me and my CGT on the production line in Leipzig
#51
Overwhelming response
To begin, I would like to thank you all for your kind comments about my car. And to answer some of your questions, an additional 20 CGT's were built after the high demand Porsche got when they reached the 1250 units. I was very pleased to learn that I was able to order one of the twenty with the color of my choice. I was told that when the production of the CGT ends, the Panamera will be produced in the same production line. I'm sure that that could possibly change. During the production of my car, I arrived at the stage just before the engine was connected to the carbon tub. The next day, I was asked to join the production team and had the honor of starting my car for the first time, for me I have never done anything like that before and it was an AWESOME experience. As for a Speed Yellow CGT, it was behind my car but I'm not sure about the chassis number. The standard production time was 2 days but whe my car was built at the end of the production the cars were taking a leisurely 4 days.
A short note for Kaizu, check my website www.jaberbinali.com and go for Dubai 24Hours, I had the pleasure to race with Horst Von Saurma, Uwe Nittel, and Jochen Ubler, we did very well and it was one of the best teams I have ever driven with. I've driven on the Nurburgring on a continuous basis for 3 consecutive years. It is forever the best race track in the world, the next race I will be there is around August 2008.
Master jcp I do have some other cars but I wanted to keep this thread for Porsche only.While my car was in the production line, there were other cars being built; you can see that in one of the pictures I have attached.
To answer globalm3 the pictures were taken in April of 2006 but the car remained at the factory an additional 4 weeks and this is a standard procedure as Porsche goes through an extensive check list to make sure that all CGT's leave the factory in perfect condition. I hope I have answered some of your questions and again I would like to say I am honored by your overwheling response, I wish every one of you will one day experience the proud moments that I have.

I feel humbled that you were gracious enough to share with us your experience in going through the factory. I hadn't realized that they had built 20 more CGTs! You guys must have had some serious pull to have managed to get Porsche to do that for you all.

20 more CGT's
I just considered myself very lucky, you can say like everyone else that I am a part of the Porsche family and I know a few individuals within Porsche. And to be honest, posting my pictures and experience I wasn't sure what the outcome would be but it's overwhelming to say the least and I'm just glad that I am a part of this community.
