992 Carrera T Club

I too prefer Speed Yellow over Racing Yellow. One pet peeve I've had since RY replaced SY with the introduction of the 991 and 981 is Porsche kept using SY on the calipers of cars equipped with PCCBs.
Playing around on the personal bankruptcy calculator I've come up with two builds, one for the true daily and the other for weekends. I'm still frustrated Porsche has PCCB availability so limited these days!
911 Carrera T | Porsche Car Configurator
911 Carrera T | Porsche Car Configurator
As PTS makes the painted seatbacks unavailable I came up with this as well:
911 Carrera T | Porsche Car Configurator
Please note these are in no way indicative of something I'd build but.......

Bahama Yellow was the PTS color that I requested for my T and was denied. Just weeks later they unveiled the ST at Rennsport in Bahama Yellow so I partially suspected maybe that was why I was told no 🤷♂️

To all you PTS guys struggling to get the colour you want - have you considered getting your car wrapped in that colour?
Fella where I live changes his Cayenne’s colour every few months. Also acts as a PPF to protect the car.
Here’s an example of how cool it could look👍

that is a cunning plan @Barkat03
I wanted Aventurine-Green 992T, so I thought if I get GT-silver I can disguise it with AG
. . . then decals came along

I was under the impression via various social media post by PCNA that the ST displayed at Rennsport was Bahama Yellow.
Bahama Yellow was the PTS color that I requested for my T and was denied. Just weeks later they unveiled the ST at Rennsport in Bahama Yellow so I partially suspected maybe that was why I was told no 🤷♂️

California market
California is a different market. NorCal dealers prefer to sell to clients in region and same with SoCal. Many dealers outside of California don’t want to sell out of state and prefer clients closer to their dealership (speaking from first hand experience).
I’ve seen on RL folks get very philosophical about how it should be done. What one has to realize is that the US is made up of many markets with each region facing its own set of challenges and advantages. Note that 1.1M households in California are millionaires (source).
Despite the recent tech layoffs, the amount of tech money is keeping many dealers oversubscribed. Yes ADMs are smaller than before but they still exist. Everyone would love to pay at MSRP, folks aren’t paying higher because they lack common sense or have too much money to throw around.
Hopefully the market in CA gets to MSRP in the near future.

Park assist
Thanks for the feedback. Am I right in thinking that the front axle lift doesn't really protect anything of mechanical importance underneath the front portion of 992 911?
If the 911 were a front-engine car, I'd definitely get the front axle lift, because I'd rather not damage the oil pan or the transmission casing in the worst case for an FR sports car. I think there are radiators in the front portion of 911, but I don't think the front axle lift will protect that anyway in most circumstances. Correct me if I'm wrong.
