Spoke to my dealer over the weekend ( a Porsche "Premier" dealer.) He said they will see first three cars late November/early December.

Would that be Stevinson? What part of Colorado are you in?

I'm in Castle Rock. Crowfoot Valley and Founders. I have seen a 991 in this area, wondering if it was you.

Haven't been down to Castle Rock in this one yet. I'm out by Park meadows everyday. You'll know me when you see me...no badging at all on the back. Happy motoring!

It really depends on which country you live in. Some will get deliveries sooner than others.

Right now, there is a delivery embargo date of October 5th in Germany (and no country seems to get it earlier).
I get the first car at my dealer and one of the earliest cars overall and it is scheduled for mid/end of September production.
Also, I cannot change any option anymore because it would delay the delivery of the car (don't ask why, I don't have a clue because it is still pretty early).

I got overtaken the other day by a 991 turbo S not far from Porsche Mannheim, Germany.
I first thought a Panamera was coming up behind me, turned out to be a mighty fast 991 . When I moved over to the right, it was gone in no time. The rear doesn't look bad, but prefer the look of the new GT3.
I can't remember the registration on the license plate, but it looked ordinary. So no special dealer or temporary plates....

First customer cars will be built in September, not a day before that. All the cars you see now on the street are cars produced for testing, pre-production evaluation driving and now, in July/August, for the press and various car shows/presentations.
I don't know how you confused it for a Panamera because the front looks COMPLETELY different. I get it...you don't like the Turbo.
