Default The python arrived today

So the transporter made its way up from Porsche San Diego. Quickly loaded up the mrs and mom and off we went. Once again, Porsche has knocked it out of the park. BTW - mom is 96!

Painted keys with one in leather comes in two-tone leather to match the interior.

No not yet. Fun drive. Beautiful top down day here in Monterey. About 75 and sunny. Tomorrow out to 17-mile drive to hear the waves crashing.

Phil the car looks fantastic. And my compliments to Mom at the young age of 96. The interior stitching and colors look and blend very
well together.

So jealous of California weather....I was actually wondering if your mother has tried it?

I sat in that one in the showroom at Porsche San Diego. Really cool color combination. By the way did they charge you the California package?

No, she gave up her keys some years ago. She loves the car. She even fits in the back seat!

No, on the CA package. Just didn't make sense to me. I did however have them do the front PPF and mirrors (no headlights, no rockers) at Auto Armor for $3k. My SA Andrew Kang was great to work with.

I have purchased several cars through Andrew! Great guy to work with I agree. I will be getting a custom 2022 allocation from him later this year..! Enjoy that new beauty!

The color is quite striking in person. It is a beautiful color. I think Porsche hit a home run with this one, especially for a non-PTS paint. I also love the fact that it is non-metallic, just pure color. It works nicely with all the exterior black accents. And the rear slats in exterior color is pretty trick.



The two-tone slate gray/chalk interior works quite nicely. White gauges, black belts, leather everything, lizard green stitching.
And the Burmeister, wow, the sound is amazing. I had a Burmeister in an AMG Suv. This one sounds even better.
I was on a fairly bumpy road in the hills off of Hwy 68 and the car is so well planted. The driver feedback is amazing, I think in part due to the sport PASM.
You roll on the throttle and it is right there with the GT2RS and 720s.

I like the body coloured slats, got them on mine too and surprised more peeps don't have them.
Car looks great and mom looks good for 96.....don't frighten her.
