Hey masmole - you got good taste. See the picture above. I've been trying to see if there is any difference in the two pictures (your T and my base) and I do notice that the piece of paper in the windshield is in a slightly different orientation in both cars. At first I thought Porsche was screwing with us!

yup, Carmine with RS wheels here too, only difference is mirror covers…. your Carrera have body-colored tops, but mine are agate because it’s a T. Maybe we’ll be shipmates!

oh sure, I didn't see the mirror cover difference. I think this combo of carmine and RS wheels is gorgeous - what interior do you have? Mine is black/mojave.

Does anyone know if the cars departing now are in the clear with regards to the control units that are requiring a swap? (That is, either originally built with control units without the offending chip or swapped at the port in Emden.)
As of 5:32 pm EST SFL Composer is still moored at Emden

Gorgeous combo indeed. Interior is black leather + carrera T sport-tex with deviated stitching package in red. Two-tone black/mojave with 930 package would’ve been my choice if I had an S or GTS all0cation, but not available on the T, so very nice choice on your part.

@audi4t looks like tugs hooked up to SFL Composer and she's now on her way to Baltimore!

I would choose second from the top if those are the only colors available...

Just a quick pep talk here. I have had my C2GTS since July 18, 2023. I spent a lot of time here waiting. I only stumbled back here when I clicked a wrong button. All these frustrations and dread go away when they hand you the keys. It took 15 months then 7 days at the PPF and ceramic coating specialist to secure my first 911 at age 56.

I got 2,500 miles in the car before winter hit Ohio. It’s coming back out tomorrow when it will be 73° here. Time to put the insurance back on.

So I guess if we didn’t get an email and inspection on Chrome still shows “V300” that our cars didn’t get picked up on the SFL Composer…?

Looks like the next hope is on 3/11 on the Amethyst Ace….

I would go more off the email. I just inspected and it still shows V300 and that it's still on Milestone #7, "Your Porsche has arrived at the German port". I'm thinking mine is messed up because of how during the TYD progress I've had my VIN change three times. Maybe that's not it but I think it's the only thing that could explain why it got so messed up. I wonder if Porsche can clear out my TYD and start it over and if it will update? Anyone ever had that done? Anyways my PPF place is going to finally be excited, I've had to cancel my planned appointments so many times lol

If you mix all those colors together you get GT Silver with a silver bar and black calipers.
