I am in the Chicago area. It is good to see some more cars starting to show up. My sense is there was probably a push to get the cars they new were sold out to dealers before month end.

Here it is, finally! What a great ride it is! I can only post these two shots of my 911 50 as I am in a bit of a hurry. But there will be a little more to come.

Wow! Congratulations. I think that is the car to get, in the color to get. Enjoy and post more pictures. I saw a Geyser Grey at Pebble Beach, and it was also gorgeous in person, but I think this grey is more my style (I have Agate currently so I am biased!). Enjoy.

The car really is awesome, great fun to drive and beautiful to look at. Amazing how much the color changes under different light conditions from a warm gray to almost black.

The only downside: I am a little underwhelmed by the sound of the PSE. It wants to scream, but the sound is rather smooth, very little barbeling, no backfire so far. It got a little better after 250 kilometers, but it still is disappointing. Does anyone no if I can expect the sound to improve?

Well, there is a second frustration, not because of the car though. I had to rent an additional garage, and after I parked the car in there, I found out that water is dripping from the ceiling. ON MY NEW CAR! Dammit.

Thanks, Suzy! According to the salesman it is the first one in Switzerland. It would be nice, but I'm not sure if its true. Either way, I really like the car.

Thanks! I saw the Geyser in Zuffenhausen and I was surprised how much I liked it. I think it works great with the chrome trims. But the graphit gray is just the perfect color for me.

Congrats. Awesome colour. Car looks great with the Swiss background in your pictures. Enjoy. I hope the PSE gets louder once the engine is broken in.

Hi everyone,
I haven't seen a dedicaced thread to introduce myself, but find this one is a good one. I'm 43, married, 2 kids (boy 11, girl 9), living in Western Switzerland (french speaking area, but I speak german as well).

And now, proud owner of a 911-50 graphite with a bunch of cool options (my way ).

I was in line on June 5th and gave the dealer a call, car reserved on 6th and signed order on June 17th.

The built sheet annonce 09/09/13 and the car reached the dealer on 09/30/13.

For personal reasons and since order, I asked a delivery on the first week of november.

I have no clue how they are managing the limitation numbers. My car is number 1948/1963 asked as Z-option (locked 06/06/13) and my tribute to the 356-001.
