Spring has never felt so good. It has been a long winter! We all need to stretch our legs a bit.

Question for T owners with the white face gauges:

I read the black gauges read “Carrera T” but the white face gauges do not - they are blank.

Is that correct?

My car has black, but I always liked the white better.

This is correct. All color options lose the Carrera T moniker in the tach.

Anyone have opinions of TechArt vs H&R springs? I read in another thread most seem to prefer techart, but the drop seems minimal. Wondering if T owners specifically have experience or thoughts on what springs are best.

I have the H&R's but have not installed them as of yet. I wanted a more aggressive stance-from what I hear the Techarts are 10mm or so lower than the PSAM sport springs that come on the T...to me not much of a difference (3/8 of an inch).

I ordered my T in December. After many months of anticipation, I am finally flying out to California tomorrow and will officially join the T Club on Wed when I collect my car at the Experience Center in LA. Unfortunately, I won't be able to spend much time with the car, but it is for a good cause. I'm dropping it off immediately with Moe at Glistening Perfection for paint correction, full body PPF, and nano coating, she is getting the works! Flying back on May 7th to collect the car and then the fun begins with a two week epic road trip including some of the most amazing roads and scenery with fine food and drink and 5-star hotels all along the way! Destinations will include Yosemite, LA Canyons, Santa Barbara, Route 1, Big Sur, Carmel/Monterrey, San Francisco, back down Route 1 and then drive on home. Will be in LA for Luftgekühlt and the Peterson Museum Pre-party, the timing couldn't have been better! I plan to hit up Angeles Crest Highway, Route 18 Loop to Big Bear Lake, Route 33 from Ojai, Route 1, Wawona Rd into Yosemite, and various twisties around the Santa Cruz Mountains. Can't wait!!!

Didn't know that. Glad I prefer the black!

Here's my final build sheet (seeing as we're sharing). It's a bit of a stripper. I agonized over it but am pretty happy and so looking forward to see it. I too liked the local of white gauges but in the end, kept with the black and the Carrera T logo on them. Whichever way you go it will be an awesome car. Well done!

That looks like a nice build -- and you nailed it with the RAS and PCCBs -- but that is nothing close to a stripper, especially for a Carrera T.

Nice. Apparently also available in Guards Red (as the before mentioned GT Silver).

Ha, ha. Ok. I did not put in a sunroof, or too much leather (other than seat backs on the 4WSS+), nor seat ventilation, the T interior etc... I chose driving focused options and some red seat belts (and alcantara visors,... Ok ok. )
