Yes you can understand I did not like this. But I have a good relationship with my dealer and we have made multiple good deals. So I expect we can work it out this time as well. In my favor is the color and manual and no backseats. Should be a lot more popular. And he has all the confidence. But we still need to agree on the money so we will see. The differences are the 18-way vs 4-way. The sunroof. No alcantara elements. Bose and LED+ added. Deviated stitching. And if GT silver then interior trim in exterior color probably. Rest should be the same.

Must have option for me as well. And it’s still on the configurator as a normal option. Not on the bespoke options.

I was looking at Function first, but yours looks good with perforated leather.

How are you liking the Numeric compared to the stock shifter?

This is from Sportshifters in the Netherlands. I heard they have some affiliation with Function First. Not sure though.

Night and day difference. If you can believe it the shifting action is smoother than factory. I think at the lowest point of adjustment it's going to sit higher than the stock T setup with the stock k.***. With the new shifter k.*** I got from sport shifters I was able to lower it significantly. It may be lower than the stock T now. However now that it's lower, the effort is considerably higher. Good thing is both pieces are adjustable so I can set it wherever I like.

Getting on my Gentian Blue that I'm picking up in ATL next month. Have not seen any others with the G-Blue interior inserts (either in person or photos) so at least it will be unusual.

Congrats to you both. PG was the color I started building my T with and RY is the color my mom, yes my 72 y/o mom, encouraged me to pick. Ultimately I went a different route but those two colors have a special place in my heart.

I think that will be one of the best colors fro the interior trim in exterior color option. Can't wait to see it.

Love it! First pictures of a real life 992 T was the RY in Amsterdam remember? Would like more pictures from the mounted shift please. Adam is waiting for his. And I am going to their workshop this Saturday to create and install mine.
