Collection day was yesterday! Such an amazing experience to finally see and sit in a car you picked every option for (and second guessed a few option choices). All I can say is that it’s perfect and I could not be happier. I’ll get more pics in the upcoming days to share with everyone.

@HerrDr Did you consider sleeping IN the new love of your life, rather than sleeping in a separate bed looking at her??
Would have been more romantic❤️

And did it come with the AGM or lithium battery?

It'll be sorted, just a case of how soon

Can you please send some good pictures of the carmine red when you collect your car? I’m highly considering that color. Thank you!

@zanary Here you go, I'm very happy with every option I got and can't think of any that I regret not getting.

@tna3 and @TUD It does have an AGM battery, and I also have RWS as well. It unfortunately has the old crest.

Does anyone have an image showing the current crest vs. the new crest? I have a Dec 12th build date (early Feb delivery), and I'm curious what the new crest looks like and if I'll make the cut for it.

It has been posted multiple times in this thread as well as the ordered thread.

Edit: Added pic. Outgoing crest along side the new crest.

There are already a few pictures of carmine red as well in this topic. Easy to find with search.

SPOILER ISSUE!
My spoiler is stuck in the extended position. The most it will allow me to retract it, is to the ‘intermediate’ position.
Other forums saying it’s not that unusual😡

@TUD and @zanary I think I read somewhere (maybe in an issue of Total 911 a UK mag) that the first car to have the new crest will be the newly upgraded Panamera when ever that is announced in 2024. So it maybe a while before the crest appears on a 992 perhaps not to the 992/2, hence I think it very unlikely that your car Zanary will have it. Sorry to disappoint you? However, we could all be surprised?

@Barkat03 Sorry to hear that hope your local dealer can resolve the issue under warranty. Best Devon Racer.

This has happened to me twice so far, the second time was over this weekend. It eventually righted itself after a day or so by selecting various drive modes on a subsequent run. I noticed that both times it happened were after heavy rain. In fact the most recent was on Friday where my T got absolutely dunked on by a passing HGV going through a flooded section of road. I've filed it as 'mildly annoying' for now.. The permanently up spoiler just looked like I was trying too hard when parked next to other 992's at a cars and coffee near me yesterday morning
