Is Canada that much smaller of a car market in general than US or is that more Porsche specific? Didn’t realize it was that different...

Is that for MY '19 or the entire run? Way back in when I ordered mine in Nov/Dec '17 it was estimated a total run of 2000 with ~700 coming to the US. Getting close to that number?

Interesting and thanks for the information!

cheers!

Entire run of 2018 and 2019 cars to date...

Canada typically receives 10-15% of what the U.S. receives so these numbers are right on track...

+1 on the 18 ways. I am loving them in my T!

I actually went for a drive this evening with my whole family: wife in the front seat, dog and 14 yr old daughter in the back. It was great!!

This will we a good excuse to lose 20 lbs!
I'm not quite that tall (only 6'), but I have very long legs for my height. I'm about 200lbs and keep the bolsters at their widest as well. I think if I was doing some spirited driving, then I would tighten them down. Love the seats though.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday. I just finalized my pre-owned Carrera T with a dealer in GA. I had previously spec'd a 911T with my dealer in PA last December but I backed out last minute and had cold feet due to the expense in resto-modding my 71' 911T. I recently started looking again and found a perfectly spec'd 911T for a reasonable price and CPO. Hope to contribute in the future with this thread and I'll post pics once it arrives.

For now here is the spec sheet and pics from the dealer website Spec Sheet

Congratulations on joining the T Club! I love the specs on your car and of course the color choice is impeccable.

So ticked off right now. I took the dealer plate frame off to put my own on and found they had missed the hole for the screw.

Wow, that sucks. At least it's not visible when the plate is on....

Being a composite bumper it’s easy to fix. I would make the dealer aware of it and have them fill and touch up (I wouldn’t have them pain the whole bumper) when you have your first service. I’ve seen them make long cracks disappear in those bumpers.

Wondering if the new headers from the 992 can be transplanted into the 991.2 which currently have stamped-steel manifolds which don’t flow as well as new ones.

I’m just really OCD and was even considering not screwing the plate in but using automotive tape. I gave in though and then this happened. Couldn’t even sleep last night. I know it’s small and is covered by the plate, but it’s the most I’ve ever spent on a car and is my dream car.
