There is an article in the Friday Allentown Morning Call that Porsche plans to open a 130,000sq ft blding with 25,000 of it office and an inside sales training area and 105,000 sg ft for storage and distribution. The proposed bldng is for regional dealers to look at brand new models. Porsche is planning a May 2009 opening.
Oh, by the way, this is your and my back yard in Palmer Township, next to Easton! Does this mean PCA and RTR people could go there directly and get parts!?!?!
Let's see how it shakes out.....

Good deal! I live about 15 minutes away...
From sources handling the transaction, the plan is for a distribution and national training center. The facility will encompass an indoor driving area. There is some discussion about a hotel nearby for trainees. As things progress I'll try and see if we can weasel some sort of PCA event there... Incidentally, one of the people involved in negotiations with Porsche commented how pleasurable it was dealing with our Swabian breathren- no BS and direct to the point!
Still trying to make time to see your collection, I am sure they would be interested in seeing these as well...
