I don’t know if you are aware, but Ice Grey Metallic was initially offered on the Taycan ($3150) prior to being offered in the 992.
Correct. And the *Special Colors* category is just a marketing scheme to charge more for certain colors. These paints are applied via the same process as any paint on the standard palette.
@ wintersade - Ice Grey Metallic will look incredible. It's a stunning color. Don't get hung up on what other models offer it and whether it will be a *Special Color* in the future. Enjoy the anticipation of your T's arrival.
I did it and love it! When sitting in the cabin, the dash trim almost lines right up with the mirrors… like it comes in, across and back out. On lighter colors I think it brings the inside and out together. My initial fear was that it’d be gawdy or over the top but in person it’s one of my favorite choices. I never cared for it in photos or in older 911’s but in 992 I dig it.
Loving the Leather Interior in Bordeaux Red with Chalk Stitching and with the 930 package. 👍👍

Oh, I am well aware as I have a Shark Blue T which was initially VW Cornflower Blue. Paint code D7 for either.

Shark Blue is also a fantastic color, but not because it is in the contrived *Special Color* category. Remember, not long ago, lucky PTS beneficiaries were selecting Voodoo Blue and Arrow Blue for 13k with no hesitation. You got a steal.

I am really enjoying IGM on the 992. It shows different hues under different lights.
U sure u don’t want to go with the standard T rims? They look damn good for factory. Anyway, gr8 color selection. It looks even better in person. Didn’t expect it to get so much attention on streets and at Whole Foods. 😄 Congrats!
My freeze date is today, and my production complete date remains unchanged at March 7.
I've added my commission number to track it on the website a while ago, but when does one typically receive the official TYD email from Porsche? Is it when production starts and VIN is assigned?

Per my experience the TYD email arrives once the seller dealer associates your name and contact info with the commission number. I received mine the day I received my allocation. In fact, within 10 to 15 minutes from hanging up the phone with my SA.
Nice! When were your orders confirmed? My order was confirmed 12/7/23 with my build finishing in on 3/11. Delivery slated to be at my dealership 4/20. I haven't seen any real adjustments to my dates since my order was confirmed in Dec
