Stunning. I turned down a 4S with PTS option only to grab a GTS, but in retrospect should have jumped on the 4S. Would probably have gone a shade of green, too... congrats!

They need a day or two to install the Numeric shifter, pedals, side markers and SmartTOP.

How long between "manufacturing started" and "manufacturing complete"? The app is telling it was done in 4 days (6 days early), the web says its not complete yet. Nothing to dwell on I guess, since the transport of the car to the US is a much longer timeframe item than its actual manufacturing. I'll see what happens on Monday, if the web login syncs up (you would think it would use the same database as the app).

I must be doing something right...

Called dealer a couple days ago for Carrera S allocation. Today, received a call offering an allocation that just opened up. Placed order and shows delivery on Aug 23rd. And yes, she's a manual.

A little less than four months is pretty fast in my book! Apparently, the guy who had the spot wanted "paint to sample".

is the dealer installing the smartTOP for you or an outside company?
they didn’t mention anything about warranty by doing this?

Here is my 4S. It had been at Emden since January 15th due to the chip embargo.

It is very dirty and even has bird droppings on the paint from so many months sitting outside.

I’ve arranged for the dealer to transport it to my PPF installer tomorrow. I hope to have it some time next week.

Mine was completed in 6 days including custom tailoring. 4 days is reasonable as it seems Zuffenhausen is running 3 shifts a day.

What is the name of this color? I can't tell if it's Porsche racing green metallic or something else. Smyrna green?!? Oh so how did you get the pictures? As far as I know all the Targas have no PTS on the builder right now.

I only got the paint booth photo so far, nothing else, even though I reached "manufacturing complete".

It's beautiful and I'm sure it will clean up gorgeous...can't wait to see the pictures when you actually take delivery!
