These Porsche documents are basically useless. Little information and some of that is wrong.

Has anyone ever seen one that actually has the MSRP listed? I've seen hundreds and don't recall EVER seeing it listed - so why do they bother printing a space for it?

PPS's are a waste of money and paper anyhow so I guess they don't really care enough to make sure the extremely limited info is accurate.

My opinion is that only people who do not belong to 356 Registry lack the knowledge to get a Cheaper Kardex. You can get a Kardex and several years of Membership cheaper than a PPS

The contractor doing the KARDEX translation is off by only one digit. Also remember long ago COAs were free. They looked nicer than the KARDEX when they were correct and available. A simple call got me a corrected replacement when the error was agreed. We lost a lot when values started to motivate fraud .

As you guys know, I've restored a lot of cars. I have been amazed many times, at the errors in the C.of A. Probably good Porsche has stopped them. ........Jim.
