Default Got Unexpected 2016 Allocation

Just got my GT3 today. When I got on the waiting list, I thought that they were going to end GT3 production at the end of 2014 so I was going to have to
wait till maybe the end of 2017. The dealer called me on August 1 to tell me that they got an allocation for a 2016 and it seems that time has stood still since
that date. I'll try to post pictures here and see what happens. I'm not a great photographer either. Anyway, I'm sure it looks like any other white 991 GT3.

Congrats nice build. What happen with the yellow stitching on the colum or is it white like the rest?

1st thing I noticed was the yellow stitching. Seems odd. A big Congrats on your special car. It's a beauty.

Thanks for all the compliments. Before the dealer sent me the car, they noticed the yellow stitching so they ordered a new part. They received a new one with black stitching so they just sent me the car so I wouldn't have to wait so long. They ordered another one so hopefully it will be the right color.

Keep the yellow makes it unique! Amazing how QC can miss that unless they were color blind.

Congrats. I would keep the yellow stitching. Makes it unique. I saw a TT-S at the dealer which was a Porsche Exclusive and the stitching was half Grey and half red.
