Hi MacAna, Beautiful car! I configured my car in the same exterior color and non PSE. How do you like the color? I struggled between GT Silver and Chalk but I've
had several silver cars and wanted something that's not so common. What interior did you go with? Would enjoy seeing pics.
My car ETA is September 13. I can't wait! Best of luck with your car!

Hello 992 Owners,

Congratulations on your beautiful new car! We (Essex Parts Services) are looking for 992 of various trim levels to measure, for the development of AP Racing brake upgrades. We will be producing 2-piece AP Racing J Hook Discs that work with the OEM calipers, large road/track brake kits (similar to the systems that have traditionally come from the factory on the GT3), stainless steel brake lines, Ferodo Racing Brake Pads, and complete AP Racing Radi-CAL Competition Brake Kits for track use (which have been a huge hit on the 991 GT3, and can be found on the new 911 RSR factory race cars). We are AP Racing's exclusive North American distributor, and you car learn more about Essex here.

If you'd like a 380mm front and rear AP Racing brake kit that will outperform the factory GT3 equipment...we'll have it.
If you want a ultra lightweight AP Racing brake kit that weighs similar to PCCB without all the fuss and expense...we'll have it.
If you plan to replace your crack-prone drilled OEM discs...we'll have it.
If you simply want the highest quality Ferodo Racing brake pads and stainless steel brake lines...we'll have them.

Our AP Racing Radi-CAL Competition Brake Kit thread in the 991 GT3 forum is a great place to learn more about our Porsche products. On our Essex Blog you can read customer reviews and feedback about our products and company.

Anyone allowing us to measure their car will receive huge discounts on our products, which could total up to $5,000 or more. Our ideal situation would be to measure your car at our facility in Charlotte, NC. If you are elsewhere in the country, we may be able to work with you remotely for certain products. If you or a friend have any form of 992 available, please shoot me a message or email me. Thank you very much for your consideration!

Here are a few pics of the equipment to which we're referring.

Yes. Quad pipes do look better. I went back and forth on this but opted for the PSE in the end. I couldn’t test a quad pipe because there are none over here (Switzerland) and there’s no really authoritative view yet. Oh well - first world problems. Your car looks outstanding. Mines due mid to end September just in time for the snow!

SA texted me this AM. My car left Emden ahead of schedule and is now on the water on the vessel, “Goodwood.” Tracking at marinetraffic.com

Anyone else on the Goodwood?

Unless your 992 is on a sail boat, I think your SA meant the Goodwood. After months of sitting in Emden, mine is on the Bishu Highway.

Cannot wait to experience Porsche ownership and enjoyment.
