Default Photoshopped my build that arrives in March with some simple mods!

So unfortunately, there is no option on the Porsche Configurator to get the PORSCHE logo or the 911 Carrera S in Satin Black (only available in High Gloss Black). I left them untouched in my order and once it arrives I am also debating on making the RS Spyder wheels satin black also. Apart from that, I'm not much of a mod guy so I'll leave it as-is. I also opted for clear tail-lights. Really like how this looks, let me know what you guys think!

I would say a little too excited to the point where it's unhealthy. I feel like I spend 4-5 hours a day neglecting work and watching every single possible 911 video on youtube. I search '992 911' and filter it by 'past 24 hours', I go on the porsche 992 hashtag on instagram, I'm constantly refreshing rennlist. I'm not sure how to stop. Haha.

Glad you like it man, thank you! Can't wait. I've never seen satin black RS Spyder wheels on a 911 so going to take a leap of faith and hope it looks the way I imagined it.

Love it! It's one of the color options I'm thinking about (the other being Miami Blue). Love the RS Spyder wheels in satin--wish it was a factory option, but thankfully somebody else told me that many dealers will do it.

Thank you, yes. Totally agree. I'm actually not a fan of painted wheels at all- I've only ever owned black cars and I love the look of plain alloy wheels against the black paint, like my M4 with the competition 20 inch wheels. Since this is my first time going with a light color I figured I'd give it a chance, so I hope I don't regret it but I doubt I will! I love the look of the non-colored Porsche crest on the wheels too. Overall I'm just beaming with excitement.

Hahaha, the funny part is that no one in my family understands my obsession with cars or how I can stare at them all day. I just get talked down on to make smarter financial decisions, I just say I'm only 26 years old once and I want to enjoy this car and keep it forever. "Buy some condos, rent them out, let your money work for you, blah blah blah" I'll get there when I get there!

I hope the clear taillights are as black as they look in the configurator. I'm very excited for that option.
