Default New Irish green speedster purchased yesterday
Car still at dealership for a few days, anxious to drive it. If I remember from my 2008 RS break-in was limited RPM's for 2k miles or so. Is there any need here dealer told me no engine break-in specifics, there were also some recommendations about bedding in the brakes back then.

Thanks

Congratulations....the Speedster is a very special car

If you believe in that kind of thing...page 13/14 of the owners manual recommends some break-in metrics

I am thinking a pair of white/gold wheels would look good on this one. I think aftermarket is only option or paint OEM. I believe the Porsche GT3 wheels only come staggered.

If I were ever able to grab a PTS ticket, its Irish Green or Slate for me. Incredible car and you have great taste!

Great color. I had an Irish Green 1970 T. Always liked that color.

Wait till you drive it and it won’t even matter that it’s that beautiful green! Nothing else like it- you’ll love driving it!
