I can tell you that my local PCA chapter requires the cover to be in place, or the battery terminals must be taped, to prevent accidental discharge in the event of a track day incident. The cover also reduces the amount of road dust and grime that gets into the frunk.

is the T limited - yes
The T is special to me as its my first porsche and It is true that anyone can get one ! The only requirement is hard work and commitment to the way you make money to afford to buy it for - 120k 🤷🏼*♂️

Another nice review of the T on Youtube this week:
MotoMan:
It is nice to hear two back to back reviews, from Nick and MotoMan where both say that the 911T is the most fun to drive!
But then again, for some, this is "just a Base Carrera with stickers and a badge...". NOT!!!

Way too premature to make a total volume produced claim. N America is just starting to get their allocation. Two dealers told me there is no volume restriction. This is not a limited production car. We won’t know how many are produced until production ends next spring/summer.

At at least with large dealers, there is No issue with allocation.

The earliest VIN I've found for a Carrera T in the US for a vehicle produced in 12/17 (first official month of production of the T for the US) has a VIN ***5843. The latest I've seen, produced in 5/18 is ***6582. That is a total of 739 cars INCLUDING ALL BASE CARRERAS, which share the same VIN format as the T. Looking at the number of Base cars listed produced in the same period, there is AT LEAST a 2:1 Base vs T, which would make it IMPOSSIBLE to be more than 250 to 300 T's in the US at this moment.
IF ANYONE who has received their T with the last 4 digits of their VIN greater than 6582, please post it here.
Given this, assuming ALL Base/T allocations ended up being T's, I have not seen a single month with more than 150 Base/T's built for the US. So, assuming ALL of the B/T's produced in June and July are T's, that will be an additional 300 T's (highly unlikely as there would be a shortage of Base cars). Even with that wild assumption, there is no way we can have more than 600 - 700 T's for MY2018. Compare this to over 2,300 GT3's US bound cars, and you can see that even when not limited by a hard number, they are quite rare in the grand scheme of things.
These are FACTS, not opinions of a dealer, or sales people chatter. If you have hard facts like these that can challenge my claim, you are encouraged to post them.

Because if you read what I wrote, you’ll realize I was speaking to the SAME Dealer!
