Got a few images today of my Jet Green Spyder but not the final assembled one. Car is on the way to Emden and should leave 11/18. Starting to feel real!
Car is on its way from Baltimore to Chicago. Should be going to pick it up in a week! Going from a B9 A4 to the GTS as my daily in Colorado, should be interesting as winter starts up soon.
It's graduation day for me, no more waiting room! I stopped at the dealership late today (Thursday) to handle paperwork/payment, and got to see the car. I'm feel much better about the color choice, though I still haven't seen it in the daylight. I also didn't really get a good look around the interior yet. I'll have to stop in again on Saturday when I'll see the inside a bit better, then will actually pick it up next Wednesday.

Finally taking my seat here in the waiting room. I'm a first time Porsche customer with no dealer relationship, so I've been on "lists" for 2 years. Finally got an allocation with the help of a broker. Order placed yesterday for a 2023 GT4. May build - late June/July delivery at PEC ATL.
Woke up to a really nice surprise today. Opened the My Porsche App to see that the order of pictures had changed and when I clicked in, I saw I received my final Production picture. Looks like I also won the tire lottery and will be receiving the car with the Michelin Cup 2 tires.

Same here! Although it looks like I "lost" the tire lottery with Pirellis. They're getting replaced with all seasons pretty quick so I'm not worried lol.
Not sure what's going on with the black front bumper, assuming it's protective wrap for transport but I've never seen it before! Reminds me of those "911 base" renderings someone did a while ago
Yeah I actually plan on putting some Michelin Sport 4S on the car pretty soon and then getting a separate set of track wheels to put the Cup 2s on. Love the color though. Ruby Star? That front black bumper did give me pause. Curious what's going on there.

It is Ruby Star! Will likely be the only 718 GTS in Ruby Star proper, seeing as RS Neo is a special color now.
Yeah I wouldn't be too sad about the Dunlops. I actually historically always ran Dunlops on my sports cars. I've just never had Cup 2s before and so me wanting them is more to scratch an itch rather than because I think they are superior.

i had the cup 2’s on my Evora GT and really liked them. So I was excited to see that my Spyder would most likely get them. I’m happy to hear that the Dunlop’s are comparable.
