Nice build. And euro-delivery. Did you order it from the SK dealer?

No I've moved to Ontario and ordered it here, I did speak to the SK dealer but ultimately decided it would be best to support the local dealer instead

I've been keeping an eye out for Canadian cars and I think I've only seen two. There are none in anyone's inventory.

My local dealer sold 1 besides mine, I saw one on Oakville Porsche Facebook page as well. They told me the take rate in this part of the country is really low while there is a fair bit of interest on the west coast.

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

Thanks

As we all know you have two choices in brakes. The standard and the ceramics. How much would the parts cost to get the larger rotors with red calipers that most want?

Do you mean like the one’s on the Carrera “S”? As shown here on Suncoast? (Couldn’t find the red calipers tho.)

Hi all, I'm new to this thread and new to Porsche (my current car is an M4), and I'm happy to say I just landed an allocation for a 911T, due to be delivered in September. Being new to Porsche, is there really value in the 18 way seats or do the 4 way seats suffice? I test drove one with 4 way and one with 18 and I couldn't tell the difference but then again I was in the car for a short period of time. Thanks in advance for your help!

I love the 4 way for simplicity. I just get in and grab the handle, move to my position and it's done. I felt I was always waiting on the power seats to move.

Yes, but I was on the Suncoast site last night trying to find the parts that would work on a T and read that the S brakes are for wide body cars only. I could be mistaken.

Randy M,
If you haven't seen it already, Jordan and Racemor are trying to raise awareness, and maybe work something out with Suncoast. See https://rennlist.com/forums/991/1067...kage-deal.html

The 4 ways are more comfortable due to more padding and fewer motors. They are also lighter. However, you should spring for the LWBs as they are the first application of those in a regular Carrera.

Which local dealer are you working with? Downtown, Pfaff, or North?
