I would gladly trade the pen, Porsche book, Taycan paperweight, etc. for having my 2nd key 10+ months after taking delivery of my car.

Another bonus of Porsche ownership arrived by email today. I’ve been invited to a Porsche golf day! I don’t play golf

A lot
I just received a notice from Porsche that my pen is at the bottom of the Atlantic.

I guess more people will be very disappointed.
So my Track My Pen was right.

it the same as what @W1NGE posted on the first page but in black

they give it when you buy a new porsche. It has your VIN number etc on it
I didn't get a Pilon..I'm not feeling left out... I got a nice Silver Porsche Drinks Flask, Porsche Umbrella & tickets to Brands Hatch Porsche Cup- all a little more useful :)

Are these from the dealer or Porsche Corp? 9 months ownership and received nothing but emails.

I would return it. Looks like someone has used a permanent marker over where your name and VIN should be 😀

It’s customary for U.K. dealers to give new car buyers a small gift with the new car… flowers , champagne or, gift from Porsche design shop. Drinking Glasses , flask , umbrellla etc.

The black ones are so much nicer than the white ones. Better quality as well

At least you got a pen! I got nothing!

I read somewhere that the holder in the glove box is actually to hold an old style analogue tyre pressure monitor (or tyre thread depth?) rather than a pen. Not sure if that's true.
Tire gauge fits perfectly.

I thought this was different than the small gift from the dealer.

I picked up my GTS yesterday and didn't get any freebies. I asked how to get some Porsche swag and my SA said that he could give me 20% off any apparel they have in parts. I went to parts and they had one shirt that didn't fit and an ugly hat. I asked about the lack of inventory and the parts desk said that they've been waiting months just to get black hats in stock. 😂
