Been enjoying the T too much to have had time to wash it lately.

Early start in the morning to give it a clean before a weekend away...

Love it! Great color that is difficult to take pictures of. It looks so much crisper when you see it en person.

Are you willing to sell your seatbelts? Or swap?

Sounds familiar I thought a pic with a dirty T may be still acceptable as the original marketing brochure also had a dirty RY T on display - haha, nice excuse for not washing the car, isn't it ?

It looks very different in differing lighting conditions. My favourite time of day is the evening/twilight when the Racing Yellow looks at its best, but as you say, hard to capture in a photograph.

Not looking to sell or swap. Ask your Porsche Centre. Or I believe after-market seat belts can be found online.

That photo is a work of art. Seriously, you could print and sell it. A+

Agree. I'm getting a 2017 Carrera S in Racing Yellow in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to it!

Just got my car back with shorter, stiffer KW springs and new bushes. Work done by Litchfield Motors here in the UK.

Wow, looks great WC! I hadn't seen this thread before so glad you brought it up. We have nearly twin Ts, except the wheel on the other side of the car. I have 18 way seats and alcantera wheel/shifter, and US cars don't have the headlight washers but otherwise looks about the same.

Lower springs look good! Are you worried about scraping any? How does it ride?

Thanks!

Yes, a bit worried about scraping, as I don’t have front axle lift, but I’ll just take things easy with speed bumps etc.

Rides well. Feels a bit sportier and more ‘tied down’. I was supposed to get spacers fitted, but I’ll need to return to get those fitted. I think that’ll improve the looks and handling even more.

How's the ride? Much difference? Looks great!

Thanks! Yeah, a little firmer, sportier and feels more tied down, but not uncomfortably so. After getting the spacers fitted, am tempted to get the rest of the Litchfield package.
