Yeah, but apparently they €™re normal. As I understand it there is moisture in the paint under the white protective wrap put on by Porsche. When you take off the wrap wherever there were wrinkles/creases you have those in the paint. Apparently, you give it a few days after the wrap is removed and it clears up. I think BG (Chris) will want to hold on to your car for a few days to have that clear up before delivery; my guess.

Congratulations man! I'm sure you are going to get tons of enjoyment out of it. Can't wait to see the design come together!

It's funny. I can't really say the .2 looks better than the .1. The front air ducts are different and the wing is a little different, but it's certainly not a better design. Maybe a lateral move.
Congrats, by the way.

Took delivery of .2 GT3 last weekend and took a few side-by-side photos.
The .2 was on its way to Esoteric Detail for an appointment with Todd's team. Car is there now getting the new car prep done as well as PPF, window tinting and graphics applied. A shout out to the NS2 Media team (Nick and Anthony) for helping me with the design. More pics will be posted to the 991.2 GT3 Pictures thread when the car is complete in a few weeks (yes, that's killing me, but have to be patient).
One thing I noticed when the two were side-by-side and that is the .2 has 1/2" more ground clearance at the front lip than the .1. Confirmed both lifts were down, any delivery 'stuff' in .2 suspension was removed. The .1 does have a track alignment with some negative camber, but thinking that's not affecting it. Anyway, may have to lower it a bit (what can be done with stock suspension) to get a bit more aggressive look.
A heads up...more to come...re: paint imperfections. I will let the experts submit a post with more details in the coming days. Without keeping you in suspense....appears to be normal and self-correcting. We'll see.

Firstly, Andy the RY car is stunning I know you cannot wait to get your hands on it. It's going to be worth the wait.
Just an add-on to this issue. I've had the same happen and the moisture is gradually dissipating but its taking time. The couple of days that Porsche mention isn't quite the case. It's been 6 days for mine and its still not quite perfect on the rear wheel arches. I've decided to hold off the ceramic coat treatment for another week as it may hamper the moisture from disappearing.
