Who’d of thought a gas tank would be a main point of contention on a GT car.

Many times I find myself in small rural towns that only offer 91 octane. It's great to have the extra fuel capacity to get to the next bigger town to fill up with 93.

Extended range is helpful at avoiding high priced race track gasoline.

I have GT silver stitching but considering chalk as I think it looked great in my C2S black interior w/ chalk stitch. They look nearly identical?

Main thing is to get A gas tank before Porsche starts adding the ‘gas tank delete’ as standard

My build was close to lock & my PCCB were removed. Porsche apparently removed them to keep the allocation going. They do not have the parts to make them beyond what cars have already been allocated. My car has now gone from late March lock to 2/17 lock & I’m awaiting feedback from my SA on the resolution. My build was essentially allocated with PCCB before the 2/3 PCCB delay notice, so hopefully my SA can pull some strings; or I’ll need to make a decision.

Make what decision? You would cancel your order if you cannot get PCCB?!

So what decision do you have to make? Risk passing on the slot and not getting another?

Ok fair, it’s black either way for me so it’s easier!

My SA pulled some strings & made some dreams come true! Car locked with PCCB & retained its March 11 build date 🥳





Big thanks to @Carrara Design for helping me visualize my build 🙏🏻

Beautiful work!
