Pretty good. Are you in the UK or US?

Question with ADM, do we pay sales tax on ADM?

Yes, you would pay sales tax on ADM, assuming the ADM is applied to the sales price. Some dealers bury the extra cost in add-ons that may not be taxable, such as services, expensive wheel and tire insurance, etc. Incidentally, my dealer did not apply any ADM, did not pressure me to buy expensive options or services, and required a $10k deposit. I have bought two other 911's (both used) from this dealer in the past, and have referred them several customers.

Spartokos. Paging RL member Spartokos. 12 hours after posting you were picking up your GT Silver T today and we haven’t seen or heard a peep. The internet is the land of instant gratification…….we need pics!😂

Never been a fan of HREs. I think they started as high end forged so quality is there. But they always came across to me as a label which in the 70s Porsche community never could eclipse the forged Fuchs of the day. I did go with forged Fikse on my track car. But sometimes when strength and light don’t matter as much, there are so many disposable options out there. And…I really love the stock T wheels.

Will those switching to different wheels store the stock setup and buy new tires too? That way the tire lottery doesn’t matter so much?

After three days of ownership I’m absolutely smitten! I have gone as far as to say I actually prefer this to the Carrera 4 GTS she has replaced! Even has a name now! Scarlet! :-)
The manual transmission has reinvigorated my driving experience!
I am looking forward to the PPF next week so I can stop panicking at every noise! Haha!
Now I know how much I love the car, my only regret is not stumping up for the Burmester. As with the GTS I had, the standard audio just isn’t good enough… BUT… I typically have it off anyway as I love the sound of the car! First world problem right there.

Probably in a different camp, but I always get a second set of wheels for all my vehicles. Summer and Winter. Hoping for Michelins on my T, but I'll happily burn through whatever they slap on there. I'll pick up the winter wheel+tire sets Porsche puts together if a reasonable price. Otherwise pickup some winter wheel+tire package from TireRack or something. 911's are an amazing amount of fun in the snow!

Sometimes these sets from SunCoast have a nice discount on them: https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/SKU992WW1920.html

I typically listen to comedy when I drive. Hopefully the base speakers can handle talk.
