I'm not buying that if Porsche wanted them to match they were limited to what was available off the shelf.

This was my initial thought, with a production run of 2,000+ cars, but am happy to be proved wrong.

As rublioalejo says… go for Forgeline’s ‘Gunmetal’.

As it happens, both of Forgeline’s Titanium and Gunmetal use the same base paint color… it is just that the gunmetal is finished with the gloss coat, and the titanium is finished with a fleck.

Follows are pictures of “Forgeline Titanium” (not the same color as Porsche Titanium).

it looks like the Titanium Grey wasn't available for the CarreraS wheels (only silver , black anf platinum) that's why is a special choice only for the T !
Tianium grey color was used also on the 991 with the Carrera Classic wheels (with diamond cut) , but never on the Carrera S style.

Default Where'd the hundred miles today go???

Not sure, but wherever they went, they went quickly. Just like the last 21 years...


"Wild horses (sorta...) couldn't drag me away..."



Coke bottle FTW!



Worth the price of admission.

This was for my bros who are no longer here to drive today. Miss you, each and every one.

Great pictures everyone, keep them coming! Two weeks tomorrow with my T. Is it the "perfect spec"? Nope......but it suits my needs to a "T". The standard 4-way seats are more than capable of holding me in place and I like having access to the back shelf (and folding seats) as I bring my 3-month old JRT pup on drives and prefer having her crate in the back. PDK? Yes I would have preferred a stick but this is an AMAZING transmission in its own right and it has become routine procedure to put the car in Sport + and transmission in Manual mode when starting every trip. Even in "basic" tune, this thing is a riot with lots of lower RPM grunt the older cars could only dream about. Having owned 911s since 2006, I'm VERY satisfied with this car, even if I am still in the "honeymoon" phase.

A little bit of a fall view from the weekend we just spent up in Vermont. Tons of driving, sport buckets, and PDK are an amazing combo in this car - even if PDK is the more 'unpopular' option. I wouldn't have it any other way.
