True, the same thing is going on now in a Targa thread, which I did not think was possible. I will say that the attitudes here are far worse than I have seen on other forums over the years...makes me want to go back to Vipers where virtually no animosity exists. However, the Viper was only out for 25 years so it had made it to 70 maybe it would have become the same eventually. I had 6 Vipers over the years though and it was time to go back to Porsches so I guess it is just something I will have to get used to, again.

Bob...those glasses you have on look heavy. No way you want that extra weight that high up and towards the rear of the bike.

Ha! Good thing I am loosing my hair to offset them. By the way, those are Persol 58230s, the same ones Arnold wore in Terminator 2, which I bought in 1991 when the movie came out.

I double checked my saved, PDF Configuration & you are correct!
The last section (p 11 of 12 on mine) says My configuration & then has order #, Model year, vehicle & prices.

However, b4 I was finished building it & saved the configuration with a Porsche code, I did not see anything that indicated the model year & certainly nothing telling me it was 991.2.

Was the model year showing somewhere in the configurator that I missed?

Hard to believe you had a sillier question.

Congratulations on both retirement and your new car. Enjoy it in good health. A couple of suggestions :
Join PCA and find a local Porsche PCA group. Our chapter, SE Florida has Porsche and Pancakes, Picnics and Driving Events. A great way to put miles on your car and meet new friends.
Since you spend time in Georgia, try the Porsche Experience in Atlanta. A great way to see what your car can really do and help make you a better driver as well.
The clear front markers would look great on your beautiful car car and to help keep your car beautiful, consider putting a clear protective film over the front end.
Many happy miles!

OP - congratulations on your new acquisition!
Sadly, this thread has generated more noise in 2 days than your turbo engine will in its entire life.


Wishing you many happy (s)miles ahead!!
