Awesome video. Thanks. And no thanks. I am already going nuts waiting on my T and I have a long way to go. (Delivery Jan 19) I keep watching videos and reading about the T because I can’t wait. But it just makes the waiting even harder. That video made me so anxious for my T.

The 3.2 is indeed a Targa and the Fuchs are special, of course. It's a car I never set out to own. When I went shopping for it 13 years ago, I wanted a G50 coupe in anything but red. Well this one came accross my radar at an outstanding price and solid guts. The rest is history. The Fuchs you see in the pic are 16x8 out back and 16x7 in front. The fronts are 951 spec wheels which have a slew of benfits on G body cars. The rears are what would have been on early turbos and 89 Carreras. Mechanically, the car has been restored...nothing untouched in the time I've owned it and some great upgrades that make it sing even more.

I feel extremely lucky to have those two fabulous cars!

I know how you feel. My dealer delivery date is 12/21 with a mid-Jan PEC Atlanta. My build doesn't even lock until 10/05!

mine locks in October as well. I keep looking at my build spec wondering if I should change this or that. Driving me nuts. I actually can’t wait for it to lock so I can at least quite stressing over the build spec. It’s nice to here someone like edmunds do a review on the car and basically say everything that I surmised about the car when I made my decision to buy it. Kinda validates the decision. Honestly though I was liking all the bad press about the car just being a marketing scheme because less people will buy them. Making those of us who do, come out a little better on the back end. It will be interesting to see just how many end up being sold. I know from my own research a lot of the dealerships are not ordering manuals because they seem to have difficulty selling them. (That’s what my dealer told me anyway) so I think 5 or 10 years down the road the few cars that are specced out as Porsche intended (manual trans) will be hard to find and hold a better value. Just my thoughts on the car. I went for the full gambit. Lwbs, RAS, 7MT, LCA, Sport steering plu, PCCB,
Build code PKYUF6A0
i added pccb, and leather after the fact at the dealer.

That is NOT how its supposed to work! You should be ADDING things as you get closer to your lock date! j/k

Totally against the ethos of the T... By the time you lock the order, I expect you to be considering the weight of the smoking package add on.
