Couldn't resist. Love that quote.

Is the PTS key 'free' with PTS? Or was it a separate option line item? (I'm assuming, like all Porsche stuff, not free but would like to know the real answer.)
I really love the contrast against Nardo. No free lunch here; PTS key is $$ but worth it in PTS for sure. Both keys are PTS. Ordered and paid for leather key pouch to match interior (AG stitch); you only get one!

More pics outside plz!
Espresso leather is natural but not two tone. Might appear that way because of the perforations in the center for ventilation.

I knew I had to be patient for a PTS. Took much longer than I thought. Created a configuration 13 months ago with dealer and waited patiently to hear for allocation. Many months later and after gently pushing hard for allocation I got one. Only had one day to finalize order! Luckily I had almost everything thought through.

Outdoor pics will have to wait for better weather and completion of certain mods (exhaust, window tint, PPF, etc). Promise I'll post.

Great looking car!
Thanks. Extra special touches make it personal.

This is Porsche we are talking about. This is similar to what Porsche thinks of "Free":

And I know of what I speak

BTW - this is a great build. Great color combinations.
Nothing's free really. I did add the "free" smoker's package for the lid on the center console and extra lighter outlet. Looks better than the open tray and more functional too!

Thanks. Color inside and out came together nicely.

Fantastic congrats. I've been waiting since May but got lucky that an allocation with PTS was available for lock almost right at that time. Due at dealer soon as been on a boat about a week.
Best combo of black aero I've seen. Enjoy.

Yes that's some luck. I expected to wait some but it was much longer than I imagined. What PTS color did you spec?

They all need some minor paint correction with handling on the boat, off the boat, the dealer, etc.

A quick polish before you PPF & Ceramic coat and you're good.

I love the spec here. Nardo gray has always been one of my favorites. The deviated stitching really transforms the brown interior and makes it come alive. Well done!

I have two small suggestion since I am a bit OCD about color scheme:
The steering wheel doesn't look right with the black airbag and black trim (which stands out especially since steering wheel rim is brown. You can fix this by:
1) Getting an Espresso brown leather airbag
2) Replacing the black trim with silver trim on the steering wheel.
