I've got an Aventurine green 992S arriving shortly but with the Carrera Classic rims and Black/Mojave interior..Yours looks fantastically cool retro with the Truffle brown leather and wood trim..It looks good enough for me to have a tinge of regret on my choice of interior.
I even chose the same 911 rear badge..

Looks great! Congrats. Nice choice with the sport design front bumper, but keeping the regular rear bumper.

Would love to hear your first driving impressions after you've had the car for a week or two.

Great colour combination. Car style is still not for me, but it *is* beautiful. Would love some more pics of the interior, and your thoughts on how it is to drive ;p

Beautiful car! I look forward to hearing your driving impressions. Hard to beat taking a 911 out on the Swiss Alps - lucky you!

Stunning car. Congratulations. This proves that there’s no such thing as an ugly 911. Love the color, and the interior leather.

I’m sure there’d be some interest in the exhaust note if possible ?

Many thanks everybody for your kind words!!

I will take off work on Friday and drive the open part of Sustenpass.

You will get a POV video of me driving the 992 like a sloth, I will show you all the options I went for and a detailed look into the interior.

Stay tuned!

I don't understand, with the front SD bumper the aerodynamic movable fins are lost?
