Welcome swish77, my ‘19T is GT silver and similarly optioned. Enjoy your new car. Enjoyed a 180 mile drive today up to the N. GA mountains with a spyder and M4. Still loving my T after 2.5 years.
Thanks SS and sorry about the windshield. Will take my Google Fi SIM for a spin!

In addition those other use cases, it could help a dashcam upload to the cloud, e.g. when you're on a roadtrip, or when the car is out of your custody/control.
Anyway, excited to join the T club. I'll post more photos after I pick it up next week. (The photo shows the car just after the installation of Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06s. The original P-Zero summer tires could not handle these Arctic winter conditions.)
Nice! And very similar to my T.
I'd be interested to know what you think of the DWS 06s after you get some miles on them. It's about time to get rid of the OEM Pirellis on mine and I am trying to decide between sticky summer tires of something I don't have to worry about in the colder months down south. And yes, we do have those colder months here. Just not as many. I had them on my Golf R and they were pretty good, but not sure about putting them on this car.
Thanks, all. Really looking forward to picking it up Wednesday and driving the three hours home. Fingers crossed there's no snow.

I'll definitely give an update on the tires. I found only two options for all-seasons for the stock 245/305 size, the other being Bridgestones. I had the Continentals on my Shelby GT350 and they were great in colder/wetter weather.
Wow, lots of new T-club folks! Welcome aboard — particularly the GT Silver crew.
You remind me, i should probably get my car out… “Honey, I got to charge my batteries”, I like to say. (We’ve had 3 ft of snow on the ground for weeks.) He’s my last pic from Thanksgiving.
Just bought this 2019 GT Silver CPO 911 T with 4500 miles on it from a Boston-area Porsche dealer. Manual transmission and not a lot of options, which is exactly what I was looking for.
It has the Carrera T package, with the GT Silver interior and Sport-Tex seats, metal sunroof, Bi-Xenon headlights, heated seats (mandatory in the Northeast), chrono package, and that's about it. I would have probably spec'd it like this new, although I might have added the RAS, but not a deal-breaker either way. Not a lot of these Ts out there so close to what I wanted, so I jumped on it.
As part of the deal, I traded in my 2015 911 S that I had owned only about a month. As a part-time, weekend driver that I'll never track, the S engine just wasn't that enjoyable .... unless I was going above 70mph, which isn't practical for my driving style. It's an amazing car, just not for me. Once I test drove the 911 T, I was hooked. Definitely a more engaging driving experience all around.

put a tune on it and you will really be impressed with the low end torque

Those wheels epic! Please post what they are.
do you know if they lighter than the standard wheels on T?

Did you install front and rear AP Racing brakes at the same time? I've got fronts and am considering rears and curious to know if they rears make much of a differece.
The most common three tunes in alphabetical order: APR, Cobb, and Softronic. The common modification path for our customers are our equal length headers, high flow cats, and Air Oil Separator (AOS) with a tune. The equal length headers are for a cleaner GT like exhaust note, response, and power. The high flow cats for more exhaust volume, response, and power. The AOS to keep oil from the PCV system making its way back into the intake system. With these modifications, the T gives a GT3 a good run in power and sound.
