Yours and KSAF's build are the only in Underberg as far as I know.
Congrats maxt. I chose Underburg Green for my ST as well. My production month was May and it got pushed to August. Please share with us more photos when you can.

Love the "ghost effect" side stickers!

As I'm doing full ppf to the car I'm tempted to go with a matt nato green vinyl to reproduce the oem stickers and achieve a similar effect (or maybe just removing them full stop, I'm still not sure I like those) .

I've asked for more pics, will upload as soon as I receive them.

I went with the satin dark silver side stickers and wheels. Can't wait to receive it and see it in person .

Riviera blue with heritage pack. I don’t know if shark blue was an option for this car.

Good eye mate! With so many uni-blues available you nailed it.

Some more pics from a very stingy (and not particularly talented) dp !

Car is still dirty from transportation but hopefully it shows the colour a bit better even tho it needs to be in the sun to really show itself !

maxt, this is stunning. It hurts my soul a bit seeing how good Underberg looks. My logic was exactly the same in trying to get this color -- darker than BRG but lighter than Brewster with a touch of yellow like from Nato/Black Olive.
Happy for you! Wish PTS were really made more broadly available for these special cars.

Stunning! I'm glad I ordered mine in the same color.

I just noticed your start number. Are you born on 1978?

A beautiful car. Very elegant but sporty spec.

That said, I find the number decals on the doors distracting and ruining the image of the car. By that, I mean without the numbers, it's a very distinguished, stylish, and luxurious appearance Porsche. Unfortunately, at least to me, numerals dress it down to appear as a track car.

The S/T is not a track car. Personally, I would remove the number decals

I had an absolute blast on track with my S/T. Having driven both 991.2 GT3 and 991.2 GT3RS on the track for quite a bit and having raced other cars. I have to say this thing is on another level. If you are very fortunate like me to own one you have to try it on track. I mean from a design and philosophy perspective it may not have been made for track but it is a very much a trackable car. In order to truly see what this car can do without breaking many laws you have to drive it on track. Its fantastic on the road but even with shorter gear ratios you cant really push the car without breaking speed limits.

The turn in and grip are outrageous even on Pirelli P Zeros but I will be putting Cup 2 R on mine to see what the difference will be. Its not as ''twitchy'' on steering as the GT3RS but just as precise the suspension in stiff mode eliminates almost all the roll. The manual gearbox makes it a pure delight to drive on track especially heel-toe with that light fly wheel is tricky but when you nail it it just feels amazing. The clutch is just the right amount of stiff in my opinion. I know it has autoblip but for me just takes out all the fun of having a manual and trying to manually rev match. The noise and the sounds are on another level the car wants to be driven it sings between 6-9k rpm and just wants to stay there. I will certainly be taking it on as many track days as I can get away with. If there is anything you want to know happy to answer if I can.

Gorgeous car! I never intended my post to mean the S/T couldn't be used on a track. I'm sure it's a blast to drive, whether on a track or street.

I knew what you meant, all good. Porsche did intend for it to primarily be for road use and weekend drives but honestly just thinking about last weekend I'm sitting here grinning like an idiot. Actually makes me sad to think so many of these will get put under a cover and never to be used at all.

Brilliant! I cannot wait to track mine as well. If more thoughts/feedback come to mind on the car please do post them!

Awesome and I love the pics! I tell people I don't go to the track for lap times. I go there so I don't get pulled over or kill someone else.

Thanks, absolutely I track my cars for driving pleasure and to enjoy myself. I forget all my life stresses when I get behind that wheel and enjoy it.

I see you have a 675LT would you recommend it?
