ALP install Thursday then off to the detailer before getting parked for a while. It's a C4 but Tire Rack was sold out of Alpins for the year and figured I can wait till Fall to buy a set.



Looking forward to pictures when cleaned up!

Just got word that my GTS is scheduled to arrive at Benicia on 14 March — six weeks earlier than previously expected.

That has been the trend, lately. Porsche is pushing them out really fast. Is a good trend.

I took your advice and added the brushed aluminum shift ****. From the configurator, it appears this also adds deviated stitching to the lever boot. I haven’t been able to confirm that, but will post pics when it arrives.

Well my long awaited (ordered in Oct) 991.2 C2 build has made it to port in Emden. Its been so long since the order was placed (only allocation my dealer could get me on the base) it was kind of forgotten and although it won't be here till May it seems real again . Read that some people were getting early delivery but mine has stayed on the original schedule .

So happy for you. Based on how much I like my C2, I'm guessing you will think this car was worth the wait...when you finally get it.

God bless,

My SA had bad information -- possibly confusing me with another customer. But the ship is actually passing through the Panama Canal today, so should reach Benicia soon.

I didn't have to wait actually, found mine at one of six dealers in the Bay Area. But still delighted to have what, from searching nation-wide inventories, I think is a pretty rare combination: Carrera S Cab manual w/ RAS, PSE and otherwise light options list (apparently this was the PCNA Executive Demo spec).

Gorgeous 911. You found a hidden treasure "in plain sight!"

Based on my experience, I'm sure you will find the car to be well worth the wait.

I'll second what Tom said. About 2700 miles in and I'm finding the experience very well worth the wait.
