My Carrera T has been delivered. I've changed the crest to silver and applied a darker protection film to the headlights. I love it way too much!

The driving performance is also absolutely outstanding, and the base model w/ manual transmission is truly the best for me

I picked up my 2024 T on Saturday. No changes to the emblem. I haven’t been able to enjoy the car because I came down with a fever after getting home (T fever?) and haven’t driven it since pickup. So far it’s great though. I also missed a local Porsche 911 meet yesterday called Carreras and Coffee… next time.

My car has the Goodyear tires btw.









Edit: also hard to see but the silver grey seatbelts are a good match with the Ice Grey exterior color.

Oh and my deal was very fair:

- No ADM
- Free PPF - full hood, front bumper, full front fenders, headlights, mirror caps, A pillars and leading edge of roof. Very satisfied with the install.
- free clear side markers
- free all season floormats
- free $90 keychain
- free tee shirt
- free umbrella

Second car I’ve purchased from this dealership new.

Reckon you’ve been done!!
Can’t believe you accepted a deal which doesn’t include a Porsche mug.
I’d take the car back and demand a refund…

Looks like a proper spec'd car in a great color and a great deal. Congrats! Love the interior trim in exterior color. A splash of deviated monochrome or dark color looks good in the interior. Get well soon!

Congrats! Sounds as though you got hooked up pretty good too. Looking forward to seeing some photos of yours out in the sun soon. Get to feeling better!

@arrivederci I did it again. Raining this AM. Instead of quick swipe of wipers, I kept repeatedly putting my Benz into Drive while moving.

@ Schn3ll So similar to my first car, except that I had Full leather vented seats with GT stitching which stands out more than the Agate grey, Just love the IGM goes so well with the Agate Grey "T" special external highlights. As everyone says the pics never quite do the colour full justice. congratulations enjoy BTW my car came with M4S tyres which was what I had hoped for. Trust you get over your fever soon to get to there and savour the experience,

The wait is over, delivered, and picked up on 05-Aug-2023! With the exception of the bucket seats and Race-Tex visors, the car arrived as spec'd.

Those of you that own Ice Grey, does it appear as silver the majority of the time?

I put 15K deposit on my T, I think high deposits are so people don't pull out, which may happen now due to high interest rates.

Have been away for some time so got some catching up to do. Will post some pictures later about my Balkan trip. Currently halfway.

I once drove my 991.2 T and did not understand how it felt much warmer than before. It had heated steering without me knowing it and accidentally turned it on. Still don’t understand how I managed to do that considering it’s place.

Market is flooded with manuals. Only PDK do sell. Quite worried that this might apply to a Carrera T as well (which I intend to keep but you never know).
There are 19 new 992 T for sale in the Netherlands of which 17 are PDK. You can even buy them with discount. 0 miles. All on the official Porsche site Netherlands. I am sure you will find a nice one you like with PDK.

The purpose is to drive the damn thing! Nice to see all these miles instead of only garage cars.

Yes 100%.

Great idea. For me no daily and no work or family related usage. Just fun miles.

You can clearly see the back seat belts in color which only come when ordering the rear seats back. No seat option comes with no seatbelts.

This really is a good solution for people like me who hate their (standard) headlights! Thanks for this!
