That’s a delicious colour!

I wouldn’t have been brave enough to match it to the gold wheels, but they look great together. Congrats!

Thanks. I sort of worked up to it. The car I ordered that was subject to the stop sale was aventurine green/satin aurum/black & bordeaux leather interior. It wasn't green enough so when I reordered, I deleted a bunch of expensive options and went the PTS route. Aventurine Green is great but it's too close to Agate Grey for my taste.

You guys were all very helpful here! thanks to this forum, I finally got in touch with the right person and the engine arrived! I should be taking delivery next week 🤞 Will post a few pics once I actually have her in my possession.

Side not, they are going to have to replace the battery and all the fluids since the car has been sitting in the garage for almost a year! I saw it and there were literally cobwebs on the wheels…a really sad sight to be honest.

You have way more patience than I could ever muster. Best wishes for this to turn out well!

Personally, I am going to be real bent out of shape if mine are entirely black. Will have a come to Jesus meeting with my salesperson because I've been assured they'll have the polished rim.
I agree that Boxster looks good, but then I’m biased . I must say I like those wheels! I did consider those, but ended up with the GTS wheels painted silver which I like too. Nice to have choices

If it was sitting still as long as the cobwebs might suggest then the tires could have flat spots . Mine was at port for over eight months and I got new Michelin P4S.

well…the car was finally delivered! Held up for a couple weeks due to some headlight module issue or something, and still getting weird error messages but they work as far as I can tell. Getting it checked out later this wk or next.

beyond excited…picked up my first rock chip so the monkey’s off of that back…now to break it in…

no CarPlay…that being said, I didn’t see a place to spec it on the configurator so it may be my bad on that one. But minor detail really. I should shut off my phone when driving anyway.

Did they replace the tires for you at no cost to you?

Beauty!

I think there were some cars shipped without CarPlay by mistake - it is standard on the GTS trim level so you should check with your dealer.

Very nice and congrats, is that Carmine Red?

​​As ​@UncleDude suggests, check with the dealer about CarPlay... they should make it right.

This "Stop Sale" car is now "For Sale" with 127 miles on Pcarmarket.

Sadly comments on Pcarmarket aren't as lively as BAT

Does anyone have a STOP SALE discount code for a track experience they aren't going to use? They were issued to those of us in NA that had the ConRod engine replacement and were good for 1 year. I just used mine to register for a Porsche racing school event and would like to invite a buddy to go along. Please PM if you have one available.
