992 Carrera T Club

Wow. Just wow. Ruby looks better and better. Ugh. So good.
And with the side decal! And mirrors! Looks so damned good. Toph is going to be smitten. All that with the carbon roof on top? Pure magic.
I hope I get to see his car before him 😜. I'm in Munich and taking the train to Stuttgart early tomorrow... assuming I don't drink too much.

Just been informed by my dealer that my car's en route!
All being well should be collecting it next week.
The race is on to be first in the world to post pics of the handover of a 992 T, something which will obviously bring fame and glory to the owner and their immediate family!!

I am feeling left behind... mine lands only in May... which OPC are you collecting from?

@Macboy @time_sink @tourenwagen man, RAS has been conundrum. My last submission included RAS but my SA gave me a few more days and I'm deleting it again today. Thank you all.

If it helps you feel better, I've been waffling too, but also going no RAS. The case @Macboy and others make, along with my gut instinct, tell me I do not want RAS on the T. The latest T review from PCA also had good insight. The reviewer had recently driven RAS and non-RAS and was on the side of RAS not necessary in the T.
Then I got distracted by the "it's in all the GT cars" argument and the various love letters by journalists and reviewers.
Now I'm definitely passing mostly because of this observation: If you pay attention, most of those in the pro camp talk about assistance at low speeds and how it feels smaller in corners while most of those in the con camp, if not all, speak like experienced drivers and express eloquently the twitchiness at speed, the inability to read/feel the car when turning at speed, how it feels less like a rear engine car and more like a mid engine car, how it feels unnatural in high speed cornering, etc. The voice of the latter group is the one I trust and the one I'm choosing to listen to given I haven't driven either.

I know RAS is discussed ad nauseam, but reading the back and forth on RAS is really unsettling. I've never owned a 911 before, my only RWD car was a behemoth 2005 GTO, and it's been a minute since I've even had something as small as a sedan. My only real experience with a 911 is from PCLA. I have no issues with the added weight, complexity, not being a "purist 911", but I'd really like to avoid "feeling like I'm losing the back end". I really only expect to do 2-4 track days a year, I'm very much a novice, and I suspect for the first year or two I'll just spend my money going to the Porsche Track Experience.
I have RAS checked right now, and have about 10 days until lock. Any additional thoughts?
