Default First 911...991...RS...UV incoming !!!

Incoming UV RS - arrival just pushed back from 2-3 to 2-10-17.
Latest intel: enters production (V260) 12-9-16 but we'll see what happens. They have a ton of time built in for delays so I'm expecting it'll arrive late Jan. Doesn't matter - it'll sit until the snow melts!

Some build details:
silver uprights and wheels
LWB
PCCB
front axle lift
silver stitching
yellow belts
clear taillights
sport chrono/nav/XM
leather interior
leather steering wheel
and more...

Oh - and our dealer is one of the "good ones": MSRP (Sewickley Porsche)

After 3 caymans and a Panamera it's our fifth Porsche and first 911! We'll keep the Agate GT4 (just sold the yellow GT4).

Asked the dealer about a build slot a while back and they said probably never gonna happen. I think we are their fourth RS (and last). Pretty sure they had to take a 2016 Panamera along with the RS build slot.

Looking forward to the 911 and RS experience!

Nice, congrats. You'll love the UV color, it's awesome. Big props to your dealers, always nice to hear that there are still good dealers out there.

I called mine to make sure a late allocation didn't pop up out of the blue. Congrats on selecting UV!

The more I drive Panda, the more I love the RS. You are going to love yours. Especially after coming from the GT4, I think it's on another planet and you know how much I loved the GT4

Congrats!

For me the UV is = PTS! (Almost), and yes we have a GREAT dealer. Super nice guys, and like a second family. They support our local PCA in a big way at the track and as a sponsor.

Thank you. Can't wait to see your photos! Hoping you can sneak in some driving before winter sets in.

Thanks Chris. I plan to track the GT4 although I'll get the RS on track a few times because....well....I've GOT to experience it "in anger".

(Flame suit on)
I'm still learning the GT4, and the RS (for me) would be overkill on a track. I'm just not that fast (it's my overly active instinct not to die ) - and I might graduate to the RS as a primary track car at some point - but for now I'll work on driving my GT4 faster/smoother/better and closer to the limit (mine and the car's). Especially having lost most of this season to concussion recovery - I'm just looking forward to truly experiencing the GT4 in spring, and hoping to be back to 100% by then (I'm close but not there yet)

Me - in an RS - on track, is like giving me an AR15 when a Smith & Wesson revolver would do the job

thank you mooty - I am VERY afraid of this...

Love the Porsche Sewickley guys. Purchased my GTS and a X5M from them over the past 2 years. Great deals. Hopefully they can find me a .2 GT3 next year! I'm a customer for life.
