I think this is the case from the contours of the covering. I’ve seen no other cars with protection applied to the headlights.

(May be that accidentally installed the 992.2 headlights! ;-) 😝 )

The last thing I want is 992.2 headlamps! I feel like the specialist boy with my headlight protection, though.

You are! I have not seen any production photos on RL with this covering.

It was produced well after the issue had been started to be resolved, so would think that wouldn’t be the cause. Have been told it is due to a lack of trucking capacity.

The second I saw your car- I thought Christian Louboutin (red soled black shoes). You have to get her a pair to match ;-)

The Siem Aristotle isn't far from the coast of Massachusetts now and should be arriving into Davisville sometime this morning. I know we have the Agate twins on board --they are probably getting ready to get unloaded (maybe after a nice brunch ;-)- but anyone else? I'd like to see how long it takes for us to get our cars. My dealer is talking about delivery next week. Fingers crossed.....

Awesome!! Although I think the Siem Aristotle is now scheduled to come into the port tomorrow (instead of today--I just noticed the change on the marine tracker). I don't know if the cruise is so good, they decided to enjoy another night---or if the weather and/or vessel traffic is backing things up. Either way, it looks like our cars won't land until tomorrow now.
