From there it went to Porsche and they approved the build and here we are 20 months later!
Your experience was very similar to mine. My allocation was just shy of a year to receive, and the car arrived 8 months later. Total 19 months but worth it IMO.

Congrats on your new Spyder. She's a beaut!

Fantastic. Never seen the color in person. Is it greener than Aventurine? Looks it in the rendering.

I don't even see that in the PTS colors on the configurator. Was it PTS Plus?

That's fantastic. I'm extremely jealous! I feel like it would look crazy good with Acid Green brake calipers.

That would have been great but it wasn't possible through CXX
I'm changing to a PFC brake kit so didn't want to mess with the OEM calipers or painting the PFC.

I tried to paint my calipers through CXX too and was told it's some safety thing which sounds like bs that they have to be yellow, black or red. I don't see how caliper colors = safety but whatever, not a huge deal. I went with black on my PCCB too.
