Congrats. I was born in Bonn but been living in the States since 86. I go to Bonn every couple of years. Have a trip planned in July to do the RingTaxi as well. My friends live in Ahrweiler. Hope you got through the flood safe and sound.

The floods were not far, but fortunately it didn't hit us.
Enjoy your RingTaxi in July!

I haven't seen a delivery of a T to an RLer before so I think it is a first-time event.

It drives beautifully and it sounds pretty good to me -- I'm not an expert, it's my first 911 -- so I guess the lightweight glass and reduced noise dampening was a great choice by Porsche engineers.
What about the exhaust button? Do you have it? Looks like you don't have the Exclusive chrome exhaust tips. Got a pic of the dash buttons?

For me the T makes sense with the standard wheels and the door decorations, specially if the base color is the GT Silver like mine.

Looks great, thank you

Scroll down and expand PRODUCTION IMAGES. That's where they are stored. I have have 2 and both are showing on Insights from Production so not sure its like the old version where there could be hidden images...



I tried this. Found a VIN and pics... but from my 2022 CGTS! LOL And all the pics were studio pics, no longer my production pics. I guess my car is still about 10=2 days away from being anything.

From the left, the 1st button is customisable (diamond symbol), and the 2nd is for the exhaust.

Thanks. What we still don't know if this will be different in the US vs RoW. So far all RoW T's seem to have the button for exhaust.

Why would US be different vs. ROW? Doesn't make sense from a manufacturing standpoint.

I agree completely but a few have had US dealers tell them they need to order FAL and/or exclusive silver tips to go with the standard PSE in order to get the dedicated, labeled button. Crazy. I don't mind programming a diamond if my car doesn't have the button.

https://trackyourdream.porsche.com/ I think all you might need is your e-mail address if you are SA included it in your order. my.porsche.com also points to it if an order is associated with your account.

Once your configuration is acknowledged by Porsche, they'll send you a link for TYD so you can follow the progress of your dream. I got my allocation 12/20/22, sent in my final build configuration 12/22 and got the TYD email from Porsche 12/23. From that point forward I was able to see exactly what was going on albeit with some minor delays in notifications.

No assembly line pics yet...the start date of production was yesterday. Probably not quite through paint yet I imagine.
