Default Picked it up!

Well, my new 991 is finally home!

She's a beauty. On the short drive home, I actually had to make a pretty hard evasive maneuver to avoid a car that pulled out suddenly. Thankfully for PDCC, it saved me

My initial impressions are very positive. A somewhat more refined ride when you want it and a beast when you want it to. For those on the fence about PSE, don't even think about it. It's singly my favorite option.

My second favorite option is the Platinum matte painted wheels. Looks beautiful against the white car!

Here are some crappy iPhone pics. More to come later.

Also, I ended getting the K40 radar/laser. Going to be installed in the next few weeks. Clear sidemarkers are also going to be installed.

My only regret, slight as it may be, is to replace the silver seat belts with red (for a bit more contrast). Oh well, not a big issue at all.

Nice build...love the wheels!
Other than the color schemes your build very similar to mine from what I can see:
PDCC w PASM Sport
PSE
Sports Chrono Pkg
Full leather interior
Agree with your thoughts on PSE, a 'must have' and I love turning it on!!

Congrats! The car is simply stunning. Which box do you check to get just "Porsche." Very tasteful. Enjoy.

Thanks for all the comments! It's funny. I just dumped the kitchen trash and stopped to look at the car for a minute or so.

It looks great! White always looks good on a 911.

I really do not like the word "P O R S C H E" on the rear. I guess I much prefer just "Carrera" or "911"
