I took delivery of mine last month and I couldn't be happier with every aspect of this car. It's turned out to be better than I expected!

With over 1100 miles on mine, the ONLY thing I would consider doing different with my build if I had it to do over again is adding the PCCB's. NOT because the standard brakes aren't great, but because of the brake dust on a white car.

You have a beautiful build there, enjoy!

I think allocations are soon coming to end with T, and rest of the 991.2.. I am not totally sure, but at this point I believe that because of emissions and change in the regulations, in euro zone, those cars, including T, cannot be ordered at the moment in euro zone. So I think porsche sells those cars now mainly to US, and rest of the world. Also in porsche magazine, 991 total, there was speculations, that factory starts producing 992 in jan/feb, so T is just about gone.

Beautiful build! I like the yellow T accents (nice decision staying with black gauges!!) and sport chrono to match the PCCB. I much prefer the blue to the yellow exterior also. Enjoy!

Just my opinion, I wouldn't get the front lip painted. I've been super super careful but there are still few times that it was scrapped and one time it came off the car (they are easy to come off). I think once you scrap it once or twice, you'll stop caring for it. Therefore, I would leave it unpainted and save the money to buy the replacement one if you end of scrapping it. Just my $0.02

actually just re-read the thread this is not your car, and you did get the ceramic brakes! Though if i may suggest, both the blue and yellow are really popping colors. Would be better if you matched the exterior to the yellow stitching (like the dealer one), or gone with a less popping color for the exterior to compliment the yellow.

interesting, would you feel the same if you got front axle lift? I am considering both painted front fascia and fal.

Dont' get me wrong. I think painted front & rear looks fantastic. I just feel seeing color being scrapped off looks more ugly then having a black plastic that I see has been scrapped. (color contrast reasons).

I don't have front axle lift. I would suspect it would help for sure but by how much I'm can't comment. I think it depends on the steepness of the drive way and the ramps that you often go on and off, etc.. Again, just giving some of my observation.

If I were getting the S I would not have front lip painted as on the S only part of it is painted. On The Ts extended lip all of it is painted and it looks great. I did add the FAL.

i am also now adding the Sport Design Package and it comes fully painted and no choice on front faicsa paint
