@Uhu Switch it back to yellow. If it took family, friends and the dealer to sway you...clearly you really wanted it and they shouldn't matter.

I found this, my Spanish isn't great but I think he liked the T and did a little drift and gave it a bit of abuse too.

As of this morning I went the other way. I had a late March delivery now I'm late May, everything including the freeze point pushed out 60 days. I'm actually ok with it as I have a new toy on the boat from Emden headed this way now, a little spacing will be nice. Also and most important perhaps this brings LWB or PCCB into the mix......

Where are you seeing dates in TYD? I can only see my order date, but not production or delivery.

It’s challenging to see if you access TYD on a mobile device. Try logging in via an iPad or desktop/laptop.

I had several steps on TYD with overlapping dates, and they have mostly sorted out now. My freeze date has been moving around the most, went from 1/23 to 1/17 to 1/20 over the span of a few days this week.

Decided to wait and have it on the GT3 I am still dreaming about.

Yellow exterior, yellow Carrera T interior, LWB, PCCB, no rear seats. Also, no PCM/display, etc.

Now, you only get green or dark grey interior accents.

You can get a myriad of deviated stitching colors, almost none of which was available on the 991. In fact, if you want to go yellow exterior/interior, you actually have two different yellow stitching options — racing and speed.

PTS and buckets will be available for those who are patient. Porsche, like the rest of the world, is experiencing challenges with labor and production/manufacturing shortages.

PCCBs are not offered this time around, which is the one notable difference. I imagine this is because very few buyers wanted to add $9k brakes to a model that is largely attractive because it is a smart package for a low price.

Overall, both the quantity and variability of options offered for the 992 T leaves the 991.2 T in the dust. It was a constant point of frustration and complaint among 991 T buyers.

I might also add that the 991.2 T did not sell well out of the gate. One reason was because many dealers did not understand the Carrera T and why it would appeal to enthusiasts, so they built a bunch of PDK/bloated cars that then sat on lots. But another reason was the 991.2 T options list was so considerably limited compared to other variants, it turned off many potential buyers who decided instead to go with a Carrera or Carrera S.
