Just in case you're wondering the mags are white gold, not silver.

A bit more on the order. I originally wanted PTS in Meissen Blau to match my '59 Convertible D but was told I needed to pick a standard color and for this allocation a PTS was not available. Also I wanted yellow stitching and was told I could not get yellow. Funny because the Upholstery Shop picture supposedly of my car's interior being completed clearly showed a roll of yellow thread above the sewing machine. And then, of course, there was the LED headlights were also not available. Now with slightly over 100 miles on the 4RS I am interested in the thread concerning the break-in period whereby the same engine GT3 is 1500km not exceeding 7000 RPM compared to my owner's manual of 3000km not exceeding 4000 RPM. Go figure?

This is actually a Porsche car which was at the Experience Centre Silverstone, still waiting on my delivery in a few weeks time all going well. As for driving in the winter on Cup 2s, if not too cold maybe 😉 Hopefully no snow for a while yet 🤞

Good looking car, I also got the white gold mag wheels and in my TYD they look more gold but yours look more like they did from the 997.2 GT3RSs.

But seriously, we are so excited to hear about owners receiving their cars...

Got these pics from the dealer today. This thing has been worth the wait! I’ll be drifting snow banks in no time!

I’m assuming this is one of the first cars in Canada.

The GT4RS specific manual states 1500km/932mi and 7000rpm. I can verify the 1500km as I’ve completed mine.

That is the European owner's manual break in spec. The U.S. owner's manual says keep under 4,000 rpm for first 3,000 km. Crazy...
