Does anyone know when other pictures if any become available? I only have the two pictures, one from side and one from front with frunk open but not the completed picture or in the paint shop picture. My pictures showed up about 2-3 days after actual production completion. This was 5-6 days ago and now my car is on the ship. I keep checking it every day but I dont know if people can chime in.

How I Stumbled Upon My Production Pictures
This might be totally obvious to everyone on Rennlist, but it wasn’t to me when my 992 TTS was built in April 2021 because I never saw any production pics. I did find them for the Taycan that is sitting in Emden awaiting shipment to the U.S.
On the left side of TYD home page on “My Porsche”, if your car has been built, click on the box “Discover Current Phase”. Mine is still “live” but I don’t know how long my pics are available for downloading. Scroll through the photos shown under “Your vehicle has been produced”. In my case, there were five - two were stock photos (paint shop and assembly) but the other three were a black Taycan like the GTS we have on order. Also, when mousing over those three photos (or tapping when on an iPad) there is a prompt to “Download high-resolution photo of your vehicle”. The dates on these photos all correspond to the production dates shown on TYD, and under “Info” on the photo (iPad) there is information about the camera type, lens settings, time of day, etc. So these three photos appear to be the real deal. The shots are quite different from what I’ve seen on the TTS and other Porsche forums.
And, yes, after the Taycan is delivered, I am definitely keeping the 911 TTS. It is amazing!
BTW, after doing the “dance” described by @mjf6175 in Post #9 (12/22/2022) in the “Porsche Charge-O-Mat Pro Battery Maintainer Resetting” thread on this TT/TTS forum, I was able to successfully charge (3 days now) our 911 Turbo S using the footwell receptacle as I had in the past with my Charge-O-Mat Pro, which has the LiO setting. So, if you have the newer Porsche-branded LiO Charge-O-Mat, don’t send it to the dumpster yet. After I drive the car again, I’ll report on the charger thread if I was able to charge successfully as others have.

Spectacular, congrats! I see you spec’d the Yellow Seat Belts - did you also do any yellow deviated stitching, Yellow Tach or clock face as well? I’m considering the same color combo on a 23 Turbo S Cab and would love to see any pics when you have a minute to post ‘em up!

Yes, I did the yellow stitching, clock, and tach. Looks good- at least to me. I reviewed my invoice at the dealership yesterday and forgot that the stitching added $3,000. I ordered the car at a stock market peak (Nov '21). I may not have done it if ordering today. I will post a couple of pictures of the interior later today.
By the way- I took this picture on the way back from the dealership. I stopped off at a Publix to pick up some red roses for my wife. Somehow forgot to tell her I ordered the car. I must be getting old.

Thanks for any pics you can throw out there as I can’t seem to find a local car with this package to see in person so pics will have to suffice as I finalize this build.

North Shore 911, Here are a few interior shots of the yellow tach, clock, and stitching. The car has black leather upholstery but looks lighter in the photos. Driving the car at night, the yellow paint in the tach and clock isn't fully apparent to the eye due to the instrument lighting.

Just FYI, 2 more of my TTS production pictures showed up today. One coming out of the paint booth, and one the completed car picture. Today is 11 days after actual completion of the production and the car is crossing the atlantic.

Bud - Thanks for the inspiration! I did indeed go with Speed Yellow deviated stitching over full black leather along with the yellow Tach & Chrono on Gentian Blue My Turbo S Cab and here are the first pics from the Dealer as it arrived on Saturday. I’ll pick it up next week so I’ll shoot out better pics then, but for now here is what I have from my SA

I did leather everywhere. For the extra few thousand to do everything I figured I'd just do it.
