This is more of a public forum. So if you want a private group, you could go to Facebook and start your own, deciding who joins. Good luck wrangling all those owners together.
It's not hard to start your own thread or, request a new group from the mods(?)...

One week with the ST.
The clutch is amazing, rev matching is so fun, exhaust sound is perfect, feels very light and nimble but also slightly over powered for the street with the current suspension settings. Dare I say it’s similar to driving a Carrera GT. Haven’t been this excited about a porsche for a minute.

Sorry to ask. I don't want a private group. Just wanted to add a group for those who had their S/Ts without annoying those who were still waiting. I'll figure it out. All the best.

I hear you. If you want to start a new thread, maybe titled "S/T Owners" or similar in this 992 GT3 and GT2RS Forum subgroup, just hit the brownish "+New Thread" button and it will walk you through the steps:


Cheers.

Thanks. I was just trying to not have the new owners flaunting their ownership while others are waiting. I already have a problem and was hoping for advice. Thanks again.

I don't have empathy for people waiting on their S/T. It's the envious ones, without an allocation, I feel bad for... (me included)
Enjoy in good health.

I just received my SRS. Been driving it the last couple weeks to get break in complete. I pretraded the GT3 last year for the ST so didn’t have a manual car to compare it. After just driving the ST again I realized how much work the car is in comparison to the SRS. Really makes me realize how special it is. It really makes me focus on driving-the revs up and down so quickly, the perfect clutch and shifter. Now got a couple thousand kms so I can really grab it by its neck. What a car!

The SRS ain’t no slouch either, incredibly unique drive. Just like the ST a exhaust will turn into a monster in its own right. Anyone who has either wont be disappointed! We’re experiencing prime Dino powered cars right now-enjoy!

agree that we are absolutely in peak car world. My time is currently being spent between my S/T and my 4RS. I have owned most new Porsche products over the last 15 years and for the first time I can absolutely say that I don’t really care what Porsche is bringing out next, that is how much I adore these cars.
Both give such an amazing and emotional driving experience, not sure I need anything else. Only car I kick myself for selling was my 991.2 3RS, immediately regretted selling that one after ED and 3 years of tracking, oh well live and learn.
