So after cancelling my original C2 order I've finally found a C4 allocation! Better yet, I got it at a higher discount than I had on the C2!

Build is; PL2LCMK7. Aventurine Green, Sport Package, Sport-Tex w/ Chalk, Sunroof. April build, ETA June. Can't wait!!

Awesome. Congratulations Gando. Can’t wait to see the pics. Here’s mine I picked up last week. It is worth the wait, I’m giggling every time I hear the sound it makes when it downshifts.

Greetings all. First Post. Not officially ordered yet. But, I’ve got an early 21 build allocation reserved at my dealer. So the process has started for me. These are incredible cars. I can’t wait.

Placed my deposit this week for a Base Carrera 992. Lock date for the allocation is 3/24 with expected delivery by June 12th. This will be my first ever Porsche and the first time I have ever custom ordered a brand new vehicle. I absolutely cannot wait. Below is my current build that I am 99% sure I am sticking with (since I have been playing with the configurator for over a year now). I was originally set on ordering a Carrera S but with this being my first Porsche I figured the Base Carrera will be plenty powerful enough (my current vehicle is a 2014 BMW 328ix). My absolute max spending limit was $120,000 for my current budget so I figured get the Base Carrera nicely optioned rather than a Carrera S with almost nothing. This is the best feeling ever! (at least when it comes to getting a new car)

Thanks!

Doing ED for 30 days? Wow, that'll be epic. Lucky you the mountain passes will be open by then.

Nice, I'm also doing 30 days of ED in my C2 Cab starting on June 10th! Have you figured out what routes you will be doing?

Nice. It won't save you much, but Power Steering Plus is not at all needed, in my opinion.

Interesting...well for $280.00 it seems like it's worth a shot. If anyone else has feedback on this regarding any noticeable differences with or without Power Steering please let me know.
