April 5th to Zurich, Switzerland! Fingers crossed though! Many cars have been delayed due to the emissions regulations. Also, I hope the color doesn’t cause any delays. In any case we’ve made the right choice! 😉👍🏻

So now they are showing all with the Matrix headlights in black, and you can’t even order them yet... 🤬

That looks excellent. In other words; ‘that’s what I would do’ The only change would be this - same leather color option that adds contrast pebble stitching. Nice to see that they’ve added this as a regular choice.

It’s interesting to see that even Exclusive add the front Sport facia but leave it off the rear. Which is the best looking comprise I think (I’ll leave out all of the negative stuff. It’s all been said before).

I also found that highly amusing!! Seems like at least Porsche Exclusive sees reason after all...

To me it's mainly the fins at the sides which are simply distracting and the license plate position, which is too high (and basically too low in standard rear).

Looks good to me! I think you only missed unticking the "Interior package painted" option, thus saving £758. Personally also not a fan of the crayon stitched leather.

Interesting and thanks. I like the Agate more, but the new Aventurine is probably more unique. Both nice!

I remember the 993 coming out in a similar shade. Oak Green I think.
