Porsche white is the best white in the industry. I’m glad you didn’t go for the WP. With WP it looks like car had a new hood installed and waiting for it to be painted.To me it doesn’t look very good. Looks busy and contrived.

Fortunately WP isn't an option on the first run of cars in uk so I was spared that problem

We only had 2 days here in uk to spec the car with no photos to go on other than the green release video/images and obviously the configurator which is never 100% representitve.
i decided to go white with gold to be safe more than anything, I had a feeling the majority would order green so didn't want to go there
the gold wheels imo are mandatory for this car, it's the trademark of a gen 2 991rs
as the images of green, red, yellow and crayon started emerging i was sure I had made a mistake going white but when the cover came off the smile was huge it's the best colour imo. The black accents, black led lights, naca ducts all look right and the gold wheels with red calipers give some colour.
The white matches the stitching on the interior, and I also went with red dials to match the calipers and give the interior some colour
for some reason I wasn't allowed to spec different colour stitching unless I dropped the clubsport package? But the white stitching looks fab!
the noises this thing makes when changing gear made me laugh all the way home, a completely different experience to my 997 gen 2 rs I am offfically a PDK convert
oh and there is also no run in required, hammer from day 1!
Lovely spec!

Are you sure about “oh and there is also no run in required, hammer from day 1!”?

That's what they told me, no specific run in necessary. They don't want to see the car for 2 years until first service although I'll have oil changed before then anyway

In the manual it likely mentions a run in period. Below 4K rpm

Couple of pictures of roll cage, can't really do a lot with the camera as seats don't recline

Congrats. Is there a clear protection film on the rear quarter in front of the wheel? I'm curious if the factory is putting them over the side decals.
