Smile New 992 cabriolet!

hello guys! Happy to be a new member of the community!
i order my first Porsche 911 in September and should arrive end of January if everything goes well

Since you ask.

That interior combo is terrible. Red, white and blue??? I’m all for custom interiors and bold choices, and maybe you have an American Flag Business you want to support.

I’ve always said buy what you want but experience tells me all cars come and go and this will be a resale disaster. Unless you don’t care if do black and red or black and white

That red interior just doesn't work in my opinion. At all.

Daring and Gorgeous ! I wish I lived in a warmer climate. I would have gone for this build, if I could have thought of it !

If what others think is important to you, and I am assuming it is since you asked total strangers for opinions, then that interior (and top) isn't going to work. Otherwise, if it makes you happy, go for it.

I just showed it to a care dealer owner next door. He also agrees, absolutely stunning ! He said he would have no problem getting top dollar for such a fabulous look !

Not exactly my cup of tea for an interior. But that's why, with Porsche, you can choose what works for you. They're never a "copy" of another car.

if you tell me you have both Ferrari and Porsche in the same colour, and that color is white, than, i think i made the right decision.
ahah just kidding, thank you for your observation. Anyway black and or black and red are always the same...

I would never do it but it will look more custom than anything I would do. And you'll be the most popular guy in town on July 4th. You will need a top quality recording of Stars and Stripes Forever and maybe an external speaker. Definitely post photos.

ahahaha I think in this forum there’s many American people, and you connect immediately to the USA flag. I’m from Italy and I didn’t think about it until a friend of mine told me that the car looks like the french flag. In my country the 4 July will be a warm summer day like others, no turkey or parades in town ahahah
