Maybe he just wants two. I think that’s warrant enough.
Fair point. I was answering a lot of "why two porsches" when I ordered the T with a new 718 GTS in the garage. And let me tell you, these two cars are SO different!
I have stuck with this thread daily for a year, I read all of MacBoy's posts...appreciate him chasing down those early deliveries so we could see cars in the flesh. Made note of his roadtrips. I can't wrap my head around 18000km on the car already.

After 14 months I finally got the call. Well surprisingly NOT from the dealer my initial deposit is with (still in place) but from the dealer I bought my second and current 991.2 T from. So first time up to the plate and here is the build I submitted for us to negotiate with:

Thx for your nice words. Glad we could help each other out here. And I as well have learned what colors I should order for my next one.

As said before this was not my intention. Driving way more than expected but loving the car so much I just can’t resist myself. All fun miles with short and long roadtrips. When I return I will be looking for a nice deal for a new 992 T. Hope it will work out.
Super interesting. I lol'd at Passenger Volume differences.
Wheels are designed and custom made for me. Only set in the world. Color is the silver in the E46 M3 CSL which is one of the nicest silvers I've ever seen on a wheel. I originally got them in an Agate-like gray thinking I would keep the T elements then changed my mind and got them painted.
I wanted double five spoke because they are the lightest/strongest wheel design and because they look the best on 992s IMO. I love the GT3 wheel.
8.5x20 ET38 22lbs
11.5x21 ET57 25lbs
I kept stock sizes to fit the N-rated tires for Carrera. I thought of going GT3 sizing but I don't want to run Cup2 or F1 on this car.
These look incredible. Would you mind sharing who you used for this custom build? AWC?
Macedonia. The road to Kokino, where there is an ancient observatory. Supported by the Americans. Amazing place, high in the mountains with amazing far stretched views. I know the country because my parents are born here. But have never driven such a car here. Just long life dreams coming together. Still very difficult for me to believe I have come so far in life to be able to afford such a dream car. Porsche is an amazing brand I have loved all my life, way before I knew I would be able to order one myself. Treating myself on this journey with a 911 was a real dream coming true.
