Not sure if I’m paying the increase or not. But it is what it is… I see buckets are available now. Thank goodness they weren’t when I ordered mine! I always get them in my gt cars and always regret it. I’m very excited to have rear seats in a modern porsche. None of my air cooled cars have had functional rear seats and all my modern Porsches have been gt cars.

im not sure what to expect, I’m pretty sure I’ll like the t. The 992 interior is awesome, as I had a gt3 t last year (a heavy optioned 235k sticker with beautiful leather no adm). Which I loved but it didn’t feel special. Which meant it would be a daily driver, which not having rear seats doesn’t work for me. So I traded my gt3 t for a 997rs and ordered a t for a daily.

ppf…. Yeah no. Every time I ppf a car I sell it within a year… if it’s a gt car I know I’m going to track the crap out of it so I’ll do a front end, but never a whole car again!

I wouldn't PPF a classic 911. Too big of a chance you peel of paint when you're removing it, especially if it's been repainted. For me PPF is good. Not sure I'll do it again, but might. Ceramic on the other hand is almost a must for me. So much easier to clean and protects the paint (not from rocks though).

The only T signals on this are the mirrors and the model designation on the back.

Do I get hate for not being on theme (no decal, no grey wheels, ventilated seats so no sport-tex), or am I still welcome here?

Build is locked fyi.

Personally I think the by definition sports features (spasm, sport exhaust, sport chrono) will be appreciated over time.

Thank you. For months I played with aurum wheels and aurum stripe, but my family was like “you’ll never amount to anything go back to the mines” so GT Silver it is.

My build is similar, I called it the if you know you know spec. Decal delete, 911 rear badge, silver wheels over gentian blue. From the outside only the mirrors really signal that it's a T. I did keep sport tex as that was one of the appeals of the T to me.

i saw that another T arrived with decals even though the delete was selected. I think if mine shows up with a decal I will also keep it.

I’m having similar thoughts. If I was sure I’d never be seen at work I’d configure very differently.

Quick question, can I put PPF over a ceramic coat and a sub layer of PPF ?

I optioned it drunk and it was a great decision when I woke up locked!!!! Don’t look back, it’s a valuable option that looks absolutely stunning.
