Horses for courses.

The black trim - I love it.

Thanks worldwidewebs. When was it that you saw a Carrera T interior?

Cheers,

Hi. Do you mean the black trim of the T, or GTS (as seen in your avatar) as I think they're different.

I do mean the black trim in the T.

The carbon-look (I'm not sure if it is carbon or printed plastic) in the GTS looks good too. But I'm very pleased with the black in the T - the mix of materials works well for me and I don't believe that black trim is offered elsewhere in the range so it's a T thing. It will show finger prints if hands are grubby. But as there's no need to prod any of it other than the cup holder, and as I have a policy of no drinks in the car, I should be safe. This from sitting in a showroom car; 2 months to wait.

Ah, thanks. I have ordered without having seen a T in the metal.

The only other black trim that I've heard of is black brushed aluminium in the GTS range.

Two months to wait for me also... CP08 date quoted as March 20th.

I'm pretty sure the wheels were grey actually but yes, it does have the sunroof

I may have been thinking of the one for sale at Porsche Teeside. Black T, black wheels and sunroof.

Glad to see my thread is alive and well! I’ve been MIA after placing my order. Trying not to get too distracted in real life! Can’t wait for April. Haven’t spoken with my SA since finalizing everything, although I plan to reach out to get a status in a week or two. The T is going to be quite the catch of the 991.2 range.

I'm saying it. If I order one it's loosing the Carrera T emblem and gaining an RS America one.

Hawt! Mine should hit port on Friday (nearly a month early) Of course, due to scheduling conflicts - I'm traveling heavily the next month and won't be able to collect it until early March most likely

Interesting, does that one not have PDLS? The light innards look all silver, which is a rarity I especially wouldn’t expect on a T.
