Really lovely color and well thought out build. Question about one of the small details. Why the small block letter “Touring” on the outer door sill, rather than the usual script touring logo?
If you like the look of the Touring with the wing up, they make another variant you may be interested in…
The wing is down 98% of the time. I just happened to have it up for the 2 times I was snapping photos. In any event, it's still far smaller than its winged brethren and disappears at the click of button

Gulf Coast is a great shop. I took mine to IX Exotics. My good buddy is a PPF installer there and wanted to see what they can do. I got the full tour yesterday and it's a very impressive shop. Neil's collection of Ferraris is very impressive

I'm honestly not sure why the lettering for "touring" came out as small block, I don't recall specifying that, only the "touring" and brushed black aluminum finish. I like how it ended up coming out as it's understated but noticeable, again staying in the Touring theme.
Spec came together beautifully! Nice to finally see the real-real-world photos haha. Dark Silver wheels and yellow PCCB were the perfect choice. Enjoy!
Beautiful car. I'm loving mine too and have many of the same sentiments. Terrific car. It does feel even larger than a 991.2 however. Regardless it does everything better. Congrats the color is terrific.

Thanks, Anthony. You made the wait slightly more palatable!

Agreed. To me, the interior feels bigger but in a good way, feels more spacious and easier to spend longer amounts of time in. When driving, it certainly does not feel bigger than the 991 from a performance and feel perspective.
Excellent choice on the exterior, wheel color, PCCB, stitch, and inserts. Very cool build. I wouldn’t have thought to go with a darker theme (the gray wheel, and black exterior trim), but it really works with the metallic paint. Also thanks for the great write-up.
Two things I don't think is on par with my 991.2 cars.
The car feels a lot taller. Even with the 18 way sofas in my 991.2, you sit quite a bit lower, and visually the front protrudes more in the field of vision. This view is to me part of the fun and I miss that. In all of my other sports cars either the long bonnet or the fenders in yiur field of vision is part of what sets such a car aside from a normal car. I don't get that view in the 992. The front just disappears and the fenders aren't very noticeable.
I still struggle with how big the car feels. 911's have always felt small, but not anymore. After about 4000 km in the Touring including two days on the track, I actually feel as if my 812 and Merc GTR shrinks more around me than the Touring does. Not really sure what to think.
But overall a nice car for sure and quite happy with mine as well.
