You do not need spacers for the 991.2 rear - maybe a 5mm spacer in front would be ok - it does not need much.

Cheers, -Peter

I got a line on a configurable build for June. Fingers crossed that it'll work out.

Spoke to my shop today, Driver source where Steve is a wealth of information.
So the housing for the Carrera, T, S GTS, turbos are the same. They a machining them out and changing internals. He said owners of a 4S with tune got 200hp. Maybe not first year, gut with all the other goodies, an option down the road.

So here’s my definition of “purist” - a raw, fun to drive car with only 3 options for ALL of my driving needs, from cruising while rocking my favorite jams (Burmester), ferrying my bike to an epic ride (Roof Transport) or year-round spirited driving (heated seats). This car just does everything right for me! Plus, the lineage of the 911 makes it infinitely fascinating to me, from the detailed engineering to the storied heritage & history.

Cruising chariot


Only T with Burmester?

Well I chose to pass on the June build and wait as my local dealer has their first '19 allocation reserved for me. Since Porsche removed Graphite and Sapphire I have my fingers crossed that they'll replace those two colors with at least one other blue. I understand that neither were available for a T but I'm still hopeful that they'll have Biscay as an option, or another blue like it (yachting) etc. Otherwise I cant go wrong with Silver.

All better now.

...Now I finally feel like a proper Rennlist’er)

My T also has Burmeister. Can’t say I have used it much though.

I drove my car for 2 full days before turning on the music. And that was because my son asked what the Bose sounded like... ROTFL! My favorite station: PSE in Sport Mode.

@BlackOptic: Well done! It was my very first mod too. And it looks fantastic with GT Silver.

I put a deposit down last month on a '19.

If you don't mind let me know when your allocations become available in your area.

Thanks

Thanks for the info, as I have thought, this is something that I'm going to have to stay on top of my dealer about.

I’m super happy to FINALLY report that I picked my T yesterday morning! I’ve been super busy and have put on about 120 miles so far but wow ... just wow.

What a fantastic machine! I could not be happier.

Pictures to follow this week!

Very cool. Can’t wait to see.

(After switching my side lights today, I went for a quick drive. I found a line of a dozen Corvette’s taking a tour... but, no P-cars out today. But, boy, this T is fun to drive.)
