CAN ANYONE SPOT THE STRUCTURAL DIFFERENCE ON THE CAR????
I think it is the bracket for rear seats. You optioned your car without them.

To each their own. Great thing we have both options available right!

Personally, I went SD route because (to me) the standard bulbous rear reminds me a bit of a hyena dragging its ****. So much un-interrupted mass so low at the rear of the car. That said, I’m glad that we’ll have a variety of looks across the delivered T’s. Wouldn’t want them all to be the same.

Or a +200% profit. (Markup its only between 6% and 7%, so an ADM really adds up on their bottom line.)

So you're the infamous No.1 for Carrera T orders in Basel. I'm the No. 4, unfortunately!

Fair enough - as you say each to their own, as it happens I prefer the front with the Sport Design pack and originally ordered it then changed my mind, something which I now regret.

BTW many people in Africa find the sight of a hyena dragging it's **** very appealing, I know I lived there.

Agreed. I went back and forth on this for weeks and decided that **** needed broken up a bit. I opted for SD package , “No Regerts”.

[QUOTE=Macboy;18692466]Porsche update from the factory send by my SA. This could be the case for all “delayed” cars for 4/5:

”I spoke with the production colleagues. It’s actually just waiting to be processed - it’s scheduled for the beginning of next week. If I get any news from the plant I’ll let you know.”


May the god of the first world problems hear you

That is true... I lived there as well and I had a friend of mine dragged out of a tent by a hyena... powerful animal not to be underestimated :-)

Not right away unfortunately… so I just have to be patient and enjoy looking at it instead! Don’t want to risk any chips before. Should only be a few days though thankfully.

Well, glad to hear my post was useful. Should I decide to swap my GTS for a T, it is very likely I would opt for IGM like you did
