Sounds like you got a banging deal. The brown roof will weather and patina well over time. Nice spec.

I've never seen a picture of the cars side-by-side that allowed me to easily compare from this particular angle (I also haven't looked particularly hard, I'm sure there are thousands.) I prefer the front bumper cuts (under the headlights vs. through them) on the 992, although I prefer the more-rounded edges of the bonnet on the 991 (although I also think they would look out-of-place on the 992).

They're both great-looking cars.
Wow great pic. The average person is just not going to be able to tell these two generations apart from the front end. Hell it even took me a few seconds to realize one was a 991 and the other a 992

What color is the interior? Truffle brown I assume/hope?

hahah... sorry! .. I was going to go GT silver as well, but didn't want to match my old boxster s & wanted more of the pop that dolomite offers.

here are some more unedited, unfiltered photos taken in the great white north here in some different light...

I must say your spec is my favorite of all the specs I have seen on this forum. Great job again!

thanks very much, it’s hard to spec wrong with this car based on what we’ve seen so far here!

The car is unbelievable. I’ve owned a few of the GT series cars over the years. This is my first foray into an entry level 911. It’s pretty surprising the level of comfort achieved with this car and the level of performance it has. For most of us, we would be hard pressed to notice the difference on the street vs. a GT car. Happy camper so far other than the silly gauge view!

This one?!

I'm off to see mine at OPC Tewkesbury tomorrow (in advance of actually being able to physically pay for it in December!). I will therefore at long last be able to see whether I've ordered GT when I have been imagining Dolomite, or vice versa!

@NotanotherIMS The black and brown is really lovely - it was my reserve spec, albeit in a coupe with JBM exterior and Truffle interior.

I think it is a common misconception that black and brown dont work together.
