Damn exactly on the same boat. Such a bad luck for us to have missed Glovis Cosmos.

Tricky thing for me is that I'm doing a PEC LA delivery. This might just delay it further down the road.

Is there any one else on the Glovis Cosmos? Or am I the only one.




Shows to be arriving to Columbia on 12/28. That’s a long trip across the Atlantic 😳

My dealer informed me I have an allocation for an April 2020 build, with June 2020 delivery - looking forward to being back in a 911 after a few years in a fantastic 718 Cayman GTS - here's my build:
Porsche Build

It's been a few years since I've had a non-white Porsche

Congrats!

I won't suggest what you should or not get but have the following feedback for you.

1. Keep the model designation or change it to 911 for the same zero cost and spend 10 mins once you've taken delivery to de-badge it yourself. Then place the badge where you can see it every day to admire it when you are not driving your 911.
2. Some will say red seat belts won't match aventurine green so don't listen to anyone if you really like it. But make sure to check out the bordeaux red seat belts in person before you commit to it. Good thing I did because I didn't like it.

I had Bordeaux Red seatbelts before in my 991.2 C2S I like the color over guards red adds a bit of contrast in the interior - I don't like the red deviated stiching either - as you say personal preference

Great if that's the case. Actually funny that I didn't like it because I have a bordeaux red/black interior on my Macan and also considering getting the same interior again for my 992, but somehow completely disliked the seat belt in this color when I saw it in person.

Anyone in here (there are 279 cars affected) been told they're performing a software recall on the center dash/console at the port before they send their car to the dealer for PDI/pickup?

Please let me know when you get an update.How long the clearance process takes, and how long will it take you to take delivery.
Mine is in another ship, and the ETA to USDVV Dec 24th.

Thanks

A tip from me is to choose the Porsche name i black, look at my config and you will se it looks cleaner with all the other black details.

Yes, Hoegh Bangkok, cannot wait

My SA told me they are expecting the car to be delivered to dealer on January 1st, and I should be able to get it on the 2nd, but I do not know if it gets delayed, or process may take longer because of the holidays.
