For you Porsche aficionados with growing families, start saving now for your Porsche K1, coming to a showroom near you in 2024/25.

Starting prices around £190,000 ($225,000)

Ice Grey to me looks white in the shade and a light grey in the sun... metallic flake I did not notice until I got up very close in the sun... I choose GT silver for my car but nothing wrong with Ice Grey Metallic... its like a blend of white and chalk with more blue in it. I think you will be very pleased when you see it in person. Car was still getting prepped for showroom not washed yet. All polished up it will be amazing!

@Corkdsp Thank you. My '20 S is GT Silver and you will love the color too. It is timeless, classic, and always appropriate for a Porsche. For the T, my first builds were GT Silver, then I decided to mix it up. Went from White for the longest time, to Chalk, then got daring, took a risk and chose IGM.

Ugh, wtf. Just had a one month delay for my T. My “manufacturing process complete” was supposed to be yesterday but is now moved to 4/6.

What’s weird is my manufacturing process started 3/8 and I received my pictures on 3/10 and 3/12, including my final build picture on 3/12. It’s a light build with T interior package, LCA, Surround View and Extended Range Fuel Tank.

Anyone know what might have caused this big delay? Did my engine fail testing or something?

All this IGM talk is making me think twice. Currently have a build freeze at the end of the month with plain white with spyder wheels. Reconsidering IGM with S wheels to keep within budget. What do you guys think?

That's a lot of patience. Congrats. Great color. I chose black too.

What a dream to finally see some cars getting delivered!! The guards red is my favorite of course. So good to finally see it like this. That color suits the car beautifully. Nice to see you have the carbon roof and Sport Design package and the red stitching and leather interior parts and the exterior color on the inside. Same car but totally different look than mine. I just love all the different possibilities from Porsche.

I had the same issue. Mine was scheduled for 24 February and moved to 14 March. Yesterday got the call that it went to 4 April
It has to do with some parts. I am thinking the Race Tex parts are missing. Do you have them as well?

I'm sure the S wheels would look good but I preferred the cleaner look of the Exclusive Design Wheels. Yes, they're costly but what isn't.

I concur. And keeping with the ethos, they are lighter.

Dropped off the elevator? Most likely it was completed with a missing component and logistics says it will take a month to get in stock. It has become all too common in the auto industry. When my G-Wagon was delayed, they had to move one of the modules from car to car to move them onto the ship and into the vpc to sit and wait for the devices to arrive.

At a quick scroll, I thought we were looking at our first aerokit.
