Default A Dream deferred - Fashion grey C2S

In this particular area of my life I will not know what happens to a dream deferred. Recently I became the proud owner of a 2014 C2S. I couldn't be happier.

030 - PASM Sport Suspension
176 - Sport Exhaust System
24931 - Exterior color to sample
250 - Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK)
602 - Full LED headlights incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS +)
640 - Sport Chrono Package
651 - Electric sunroof
658 - Power Steering Plus
789 - Exterior Paint to Sample Code
840 - SportDesign steering wheel
98 - Exterior Paint to Sample Non-Metallic
AZ - Leather interior in Black
P06 - Power Sport Seats (14-way)
P3E - Premium Package Plus (for use with Power Sport Seats)
P3H - BOSE® Audio Package
XAT - SportDesign package
XDA - Wheels painted Black
ZAB - Ornamental Porsche Crest













I haven't really had a chance to get much driving in, but what I have done has been amazing. There is so much I'd like to do to it, yet I haven't changed a thing. The longer I go with it stock the longer I feel like it is perfect.

Through forums I've seen the fashion grey receives mixed reviews. I'm in love with it. The idea of it being a 356 color and one with few examples out there sits well with me.

The other thing I love is the sport design kit. The duck tail and front are we're deal breakers for me in my search. The sport design package was on my list of must haves. I was really lucky to get a great deal on a built car with little compromise in the must have departments.

I look forward to participate in the forum and get to know my car better.

Your car is achingly beautiful to me ! Put a darker stripe on it and it so resembles the limited edition 997 sportclassic. Gorgeous !

I haven't seen one in person, but that color looks great! Different, but not flashy. Have fun with it.

Yes, fantastic color, but I was wondering the same thing. Does it actually change that much to the eye, or is that just the camera?
