I have the full LED lights. The side marker is also LED. There are no clear side markers in LED so in my case it stays orange. My sales guy always changes the side markers to clear and was surprised when he found out that it wasn't possible. I'm not really upset because as a limited edition car it should probably not be tampered with.

The leather is very nice, but nothing different about it from a regular 991. I also could not resist the retro look of the houndstooth cloth.

Bacura.

Looks amazing!

All of your guys 50's look great!

I'm willing to knock over a liquor store to get my hands on a set of those Fuchs!

I'm surprised most 991_50 I've seen so far are PDK. So much for the last of the MT's

Does anyone have a clue how many PDK's and how many MT cars?

Or will we have to wait until they all make it out into the wild?

Don't have reliable factory data but during works delivery in Zuffenhausen I had a chat with some production engineers and they mentioned something around 15-20% MT 991-50s...

I believe that estimate. Considering that I see <5% MT when visiting dealerships and looking at new 991s.

There is enough road/exhaust noise in the car that I am not sure I would appreciate the Burmeister.
I get lot's of people commenting on how beautiful the car is. It's not uncommon to have people taking pictures even on the road.
My main frustration now is that i can't push it yet. Need to get some more miles on it.
I canceled my 991_50 a long time ago but this pic of geyser almost makes me regret it. Gorgeous!
