I've requested a Porsche Product Specifications (COA), and its now been a month since they charged my Credit Card, and I still have not received anything.

Is this normal?
Do I need to be more patient?

It took about 6 weeks to get the one for our 73 911T earlier this summer. I really don’t give a damn about it, we’ve owned the car for 34 years but it seems like everyone looking at the car (it is for sale) thinks it is a document of utmost importance. It did show that it is a matching numbers original color car and all of the 911S bits came on the car as delivered.

When we restored our 1958 Coupe during the 1980s thru the first half of the 1990s, I didn’t bother with the COA. I had a pretty good history of the car from the previous owner who was the second owner. We never could explain why, when we stripped the car to bare metal, there were no over rider holes in the body for the US bumpers. I got the car without bumpers and put nerf bars on it when we restored it. I sold the car in 2010 to a fellow in Canada. He had a connection and had the Cardex pulled. Yes, it was a numbers match car and was sold new in Germany to an American GI who then brought it back with him to the US. That explained it and the COA never would have...
