I got the car!
I got to talk to the dealer that services the vehicle and went over all service records. I inspected it and drove it around. The car is fantastic and the color looks much better in person. I am looking forward to getting more acquainted with this amazing machine. I will be dropping her off to XPEL Austin for a few days to get the PPF replaced and finish the rest of the car before hitting the track. I appreciate everyone's help and input and look forward to seeing some of you guys at the track soon!

what are monolocks?
Have them do the DME report to look for engine overrevs, have them show you what they can of the maintenance thats been done before if it is in the system, look for oil leaks in the rear diffuser under tray - there was a problem with early '18s with a bad part and oil leaks that will end up in that under tray. Have them service the monolocks before taking delivery.
Thats about all I can add, good luck!

FYI - The bumper needs to come off for the engine air filter but not for the spark plugs. I recently did spark plugs without removing the bumper.

Although there’s differing opinions on maintenance schedules - I look at plugs, air filter and brake fluid flush as great items to join together on the same two year schedule.
The plug job by itself is easy and even easier with the wheels and bumper cover off (which are needed with the other two)

- T27 is actually a T30 for the diffuser/engine guard screws [ 7.5ft/lbs ]
- updated spark plug part numbers [ 999-170-153-91 for 991.2 GT3 ]
- spark plugs [ 14-21 ft/lbs ] but then I also read [ 24 ft/lb for new, 22 ft/lb for reuse ] - no definitive answer on which is the current standard.
Theres a great DIY thread on it here:
