No, I have not. It's been torture. SA says they have no way of tracking it after it's been released for transport. I had a tint appointment scheduled tomorrow but looks like it'll have to be next week. Funny how this last few days seems so much longer than the previous few months.

How are you loving your car?

Back to school nite immed after I got home.
Tint being done tomorrow. Will post update pics tomorrow eve, sorry medias!
scroll up though in case you didn’t see the 4 I posted from the dealer on Sat.
i love my build & this is obviously quite a machine after 50 miles. I’d say my biggest disappointment is shifter “feel”. It’s a bit vague-esp compared to my long time F355 GTS w the gated 6 speed. But, the GTS w RAS and those huge low pro tires really feels great in bends. I will start a different thread w pics and the little stuff I’m doing to it over the long wknd-tint, clearguard nano, and I’m doing the kamikaze ism coating myself.

please tell me more about kamikaze. My GTS arrives in a few days and I was planning to have someone put modesto on it. ism would be a lot cheaper!

I’d be happy to, and will once I’ve worked with the product. I’m pretty comfortable with paint work and detailing, so I figure I can handle ism coating after watching Esoterics video on you tube. Search for “esoteric kamikaze ism” and watch. Once I start, I’ll get a thread going on my process.

Thank you! I have GT Silver as well. It will be great to read your feedback. Now I need to read up on prep and paint correction, new territory for me as I always paid someone.

Thanks guys. Too late to do PDI today. But, turning the key for the first time was very special. These 911’s are thoroughbreds

been following this thread for a bit, but just now have something to contribute... my 2019 911 GTS, Chalk with GTS black and silver interior. 7 MT, rear wheel steer, 20" center lock wheels, PDLS, Slide Glass Roof, Bose, and some other odds and ends. Many thanks to Steven Y at Beachwood Porsche... now it needs trucking out to the west coast, can't wait!
