Placed an order yesterday. Arrival early March.

Carrera coupe
Black/Black
PDK
20" Spyder wheels
PSE
Premium Pkg plus 14 way seats
Sport Chrono
LCA
No sunroof
Model designation "911"

I drove both the S and the base back to back and the base was as quick as my '14 C4S. No brainer for me.

Congrats to all of you on your beautiful cars!

I am traveling abroad for some time now and away from my newly delivered car. I am missing it so found a way to connect with it. While waiting, I spent a lot of time looking at other people's builds. It helped pass the time, so thought I would upload my delivery day album. There is also a video of it being offloaded from the truck, but I can't upload that. If you want to see it, feel free to PM and I'll throw it up on YouTube.

@bizwiz thanks for reply! I've been searching for pics of red roof but only seem to be able to find dark grey with red hood or white with red hood. I hope it's just a matter of getting used to the red pop and it will look better with time. That aside I do prefer the .1 horizontal vents on the targa.

Thanks for sharing the album... Particularly since it's the same color as mine (w/ glass sun roof)

Wow, that red top on the Targa looks sharp! Especially with the red calipers and tail lights... Not a combo that I would have naturally thought of but, once you see it, it looks good!

I think the red roof is outstanding with the chosen body color, I would order that and not look back.

It got delivered to my hanger late this afternoon. It was cold, and it was dark. Not the best set of pics, I was in a hurry to get back home for dinner. I will be able to get some more pics tomorrow.

Cheers

Beautiful looking TTS! Like the blue exterior with the yellow calipers and the rims you chose.
