Congrats Duke.

Except for the pdk, I want the 7 speed, that is the EXACT configuration that I am playing with.

Do you mind posting photos of the interior?

Love the GT Silver. It shows all the styling cues of the Porsche body, like a beautiful woman in a slinky dress!

Congrats! My car just arrived home from ED as well. It is such a great experience that all porsche fans should try at least once.

Great write up on these features. For future buyers info like this is so important in making a wise decision.

Duke I'm happy the ED was all you hoped for and our excitement didn't over promise what you could expect. Now enjoy the heck out of it. I noticed Vic_50 has as many NA miles as Europe now. We do too - don't worry, they're fun here too!

Thanks M. It's been a great journey, enhanced by friendly advice and genuine mutual enthusiasm for these great cars.

I also now have more NA miles than from ED. Last week went on a facility tour for business and logged in another 1,000 mile and completed the recommended break in -- although I did a few WOT run outs in Germany (Chuck!!!), hard to resist for me. Anyhow, at 2,002 mi, I pulled off the road, gassed up and WOT'd to about ... Well, I'd better not say. Even though I was in remote Idaho, I did not want my car impounded so I eased it back.

Tx Duke.

Interior
I am particularly interested in the black instrumentation / dials (vs. grey or white) and the two tone grey (vs. black or a "brown" interiors).


Exterior
A closer shot showing the glass roof please.

Whenever you get to it. I know how busy we can get.

Nik,

Take a look at this thread. It was very helpful to me. In particular, click on Just J's link to his pics. Several show the glass roof very well. It's an amazing look imo.

I'll get some interior pics out to you today when I get home. It's 10 degrees today. My c2s is safely garaged at home!!
