Maybe you can tell us what your opinion of the interior and exterior plastics is? Quality etc? especially that pesky center console?

Love the wheels, however I think I prefer the colour center caps.

Are you saying Miami blue on the 992 has changed from the version available on the 991? Photos often push it blue even though it has a green tint in real life.

No not at all... that's just the way of MB... sometimes looks a little Riviera/Mexico Blue but in bright sunny light takes on that art deco Miami Blue with a slight teal green tint.. looking forward to it.. will post detail photos when it arrives here next week!

Saw a Gentian blue 992 today. The car looks a lot better in person than the pics. Odd - I think people haven’t worked out the best angles to photograph this car or something. Gentian blue is a very pretty color, too.

I saw one at a launch party with the same config as yours and it’s definitely my next color. Color looks amazing with those wheels

Build is getting locked today. Looking at a mid-December delivery. Another positive is that this will be the first 992 order and delivery in my home market. Porsche Code - PLTMVZV3
Looking for thoughts and opinions.

Glass sunroof to make it brighter in the car would be my preference.

Unique build! But I was shocked by the price INR 21,426,600 (equivalent to ~$300k USD)
