My parent's taught me not say anything bad SO no I personally will never go there again. I'll just leave that can of worms alone... and one of the reasons why I'm considering Ferrari.

What are the 2 square panels cut into the rear clamshell? Didn't see those on the concepts.

I am hoping I was wrong that heritage is only 1 colour combo. Can some confirm if other heritage options are available?

If it’s anything like the 997 or spyder those are where the top clips in.

Those are the cutouts for the rollover mechanism. They pop through the panels.

Black brake calipers on ceramic brakes ... Impossible. Worth the option price alone

Just like iron brakes on base Boxster/Carrera. So understated, so rad!

Where do you see black calipers on PCCB on the Speedster? I only see that on the Exclusive series.

I was so disappointed in the cars last night at the auto show....I literally didn't even take one pic. I thought it was a very bland effort at best. Super irritated as I've been waiting for this car for what feels like forever to be the perfect 911 !

The heritage edition has black calipers as part of the package. See photo attached that I took.

Yup. It's in the configurator.

From the speaker’s statement, he said the heritage pack is exclusively in gt silver. But, he didn’t say much of anything with substance.

The Heritage Package looks great in person... If I were to spec a Speedster it would definitely be a heritage car with "69" as the lettering.
