So not all people want a T because it’s a T. So this will also count for the second hand market. Speccing a PDK and full leather and deleting the T elements outside would be a nice thinking. So no T decals and the 911 at the end. It’s not how I would like it, but the thinking is not strange. You then just have a Carrera but with the proper specs. I would advice you to go for full deviated stitching and all leather options as well. You will surely sell your car fast. On the other hand a fully T ethos specced car with just PDK will also sell eventually. I do think it’s a bit less popular down the road.

Thank you for that short nice story, loved it! Especially since it was raining here as well.

Very simple to me. Shark blue (or any blue) goes brilliantly with yellow. That’s just a contrast of nature. I would advice you to go for the combo shark blue with yellow seatbelts and yellow deviated stitching and yellow tacho and chrono. If you add the blue inserts that is solely up to you. You can always change it if you don’t like it. But the general rule is contrast inside/outside, not both of them together. It would be very different if we could have the red or yellow callipers.

Just finished an exterior and interior clean, and I've got to say - HOLY HELL DOES CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE BACK WINDOW SUCK!!!

The car does look fantastic now that I'm done though...

Beautiful car I was dreaming of driving this coming Friday (Collection day) but as you can see now that is just a dream!
Now having to wait I expect until the autumn / fall for my next encounter.

If you're interested, I have a friend with a brand new T (9 miles}, NEVER driven. Chalk with leather. Manual. He's considering selling to downsize his collection. PM me.

That's very kind but my dealer has another allocation which I can spec up the same and as I want to keep the car I really want like so many on this forum as we choose not as others might have done. But the offer and thought is much appreciated and I am respectful to you @ Icegrill /Adam is Adam

Some obligatory interior shots though I will not get to enjoy it!!! Specially for Barkat03. And by the way all the sympathetic comments are fully appreciated by me. Thank you all.

Devon Racer, it must be heart wrenching, but the good news is there is no structural damage.

They can easily replace both fenders and lights, and nobody will ever know. Naturally they would have to compensate you for it!
An alternative is rather underwhelming, unless you go BIG

PS. Just read your earlier post… new 992 T allocation it is!
I was worried that new allocations are uncertain, with imminent release of 992.2
