After I built my S I realized just how special the T really is. You pay extra for all the special things the T has. PASM, lightweight glass, sport’s exhaust etc. The S is not a special car.
Aventurine green was a color that first attracted me to the 911. Then I found out not offer for a T, thus went to my second choice, GT-Silver. The green actually works much better with beige so in any event the Silver with black interior is a better choice in the T.

I've been runaround in Melbourne and was told there is no more production, it seems odd as the local Journos are still road-testing the 992 T model here.
I just did the deposit on mine on the 20th. Feb 22nd lock and May 6th delivery. The dealer had 2 and someone had just got the other before me. I believe the other locked yesterday and then delivers April.

Not that I'm aware of. These photos just appeared on the web site and mobile app late last night.

Yep, spec’d my S all out in Adv green with the cognac heritage interior and was pumped to have the allocation then boom! No car for you! 👎
Im holding out for the 992.2 in my preferred color which hopefully retains the manual gearbox. My SA assured me that Porsche will keep a manual just based on the demand. Even though it will most likely have an electric motor in the drive line.

I just got a TYD update saying that my car is at port. The customs issue must be resolved.

I have heard that there were zero issues with customs to begin with. FYI, They go through US customs prior to being PDI’ed at port.

Just because you have to pay for extras that the T has, doesn't make the more powerful S less special than the T.

Touché. But everyone knows with a simple chip you have GT power with a T. The S adds back in all the sound deadening and doesn’t offer seat delete. It’s much less of a raw sports car than a T. The T is much more special IMO.

It looks like it arrived around the 21st but was moored off the coast until now. I tracked it with the maritime app.

@defiant2 Thanks for the update on the rear seats. I originally had a GT3 touring on order and was planning to add rear seats so I have a full back seat kit. Since the GT3 fell through (long story), I ordered a T.

Finding carrera T backseat is very very tough. The part number for the 992 rear seat bench is 992 885 405 but no parts department can figure out how to order one in Carrera T Checkered Sport Tex. If you get the part number, please share.

****EDIT***** Part Number for Carrera T interior rear seat color with Chalk stitching 992 885 405 NVA0.

Also, if you cannot find carrera T fabric for your rear bolsters, I have a crap ton of authentic 911R fabric. I was planning to use it in the GT3. If you want some, PM me. It kind of matches....
