[QUOTE=halfmonkey;17987024]Thank you for sharing. I've added your build to the database. I don't believe I have anybody report delivery of a 000 package car yet. Please be sure to share pictures when you receive it, especially the interior.
Definitely...I have also requested something special on the hood...they are checking to see if it's possible, will show pics when the car is ready!
Is your car going to be a MY23? September sounds awfully late for MY22 production....
My SA said no production in 2023 and they have stopped receiving orders back in Nov 2021. The major delay is caused by the Ascot brown leather (moved from April to Sept).
Underberg is lighter than Brewster and darker than British Racing Green. All are non-Metallic. Oak Green is a metallic that is a good deal lighter with a good bit of silver in it.
Yes agree! Somehow I don't think any German car should be a double agent wearing British or Irish Green, while Oak green is a bit too yellowish under the sun. I narrowed down to Dark Olive, Brewster and Underberg, took out Dark Olive because I want a more vintage/classic skin with non-metallic paint, and finally chose Underberg mostly because of the pictures I've seen from the internet, particularly this forum and this post - https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3-...een-gt2rs.html
This special pts order was cancelled by buyer and car hit showroom for two days. Coming to my garage next week. I could not help but buy this color combination.
BRG with full leather espresso/cognac.

Beautiful. I got Porsche Racing Green Metallic but there are so many amazing greens to choose from. If I had it to do over again I would have gotten full espresso interior. Still very happy with mine though.

Bought both a GTS Boxster 2022 and a GT4 2022 - in theory the Boxster is my wife’s car. Great angle to get a second 718.
both Shark blue - lots of options — dealer hated my choice of shark blue matching wheels on the Boxster — but he did not understand the plan with the livery I designed.
the Boxster is oddly twice as fun to drive on the freeway and down twisty roads than the GT4. The Boxster is mild and kind when you don’t want drama but flip to manual and keep the rpm’s above 4,000 rpm and it gets and sounds really mean.
the only complaint- disappointment- with both cars is that they don’t do any backfires and pops etc. when downshifting like my 2021 Targa 4. Essentially similar engines but I am planning on making some mods to the exhaust on both to get that cool sounding backfires.
as an aside/ both are fantastic vehicles but I have to admit when I climb into the 911 Targa - it is the best driving and comfort wise and just feels like a world class vehicle with no competition. Except you can’t see the gauges and the stupid razor shifter thing is just stupid. Need to pay $300,000 for a GT 4 just to get an old fashioned shifter like in the 718’s. Likely the remodeled 718 will have the silly 911 shifter.
drove the 911 eight hours from San Diego to Sacramento last week and the 911 was comfortable and just nirvana now and then.
Long time sports car driver, first time Porsche-owner to be ... very excited while I wait for my new baby.

Are you currently part of the Porsche Club America San Diego chapter? If not, will you be joining once you get your car? Would love to meet you and your car see you at some of the PCA SDR events.
