I'm hearing they will only be available for February and later builds even though they are showing now so I would expect a March build to be ok, especially if the dealer is able to add it in their system now.

I like to remind myself that Porsche giveth and Porsche taketh away

Congrats to everyone who gets them. A 3RS with mag wheels will be special. Now PAG just needs to approve PTS!

I was hoping they would do this later on in the cycle - pretty excited to get it. Thank you OP for making us aware. Not sure how many March builds are out there, but you’ve at least helped 1 person today!

You and I so far for March build. Am trying for ED and those wheels will look good driving around Europe. Saved about $7k

Talked to the dealer this morning and my car went V300 (completed) today! So I guess it is a little late to get different wheels. Delivers first of February.

Damn it Porsche!

I just want the wheels! Of course I can buy them for $37k(?) from Suncoast!

And configurator would suggest not available in white gold....

Ferrari offers carbon wheels on 488 Pista for $13k and unless I'm mistaken you can buy them alone without having to jump through other hoops.

Well, I think so! It was V300 and complete yesterday. Supposed to be at the dealer around first of February. We will see if it shows up with my Cxxx options. So far, it still looks good. The only Cxx I asked for was yellow door pulls and yellow stitching on the dash and vents with vents painted black instead of the Miami Blue exterior color. Nothing extremely complicated. These things I asked for did cost me about 4-6 weeks extra time from original build/delivery dates.
