If it is any help, when I visited Porsche Woodland Hills about a week ago, they quoted me 15k ADM on a T. Porsche South Bay was the same.

That along with the recent markup makes me very thankful to have mine on its way at MSRP.

@shane_b thanks for the great pictures and the review you are giving. Enjoy your car!

@Schn3ll and to all people not considering PDLS+ please read back carefully what I have written about the (ugly) white plastic of the lamp unit. Also I have posted some pictures already of the 992 T at the dealer in ice grey metallic.

@Barkat03 we have Clanck here in Netherlands. It’s not far from you.

Porsche logo's in Lizard Green on the brake calipers sounds like a great idea!
Does anyone have experience with coloured stickers?

or

Not sure this will be a long-term solution...
Be careful, there are some on here clutching their pearls at the thought a subtle exterior match. 🤣🤣🤣
I wanted an M&M color exterior but after thought it was just too loud for me. It’s my way of adding a little color without being too bold.

Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait to drive mine! Can you make some video clips?

Macboy - it sounds interesting, any idea of the price for a good system? Clanck's website gives no prices, just says to contact them.

This is exactly why I was advocating Burmester in this thread. It only makes sense to have a better audio system in a louder car.

Subtle??? On a toy sports car? Why? I say go for the fun element—/ life is too short for beige and grey sports cars. Keep your wife’s van in boring colors but not a 911. The shape is by default rather boring and truthfully outdated so the bright colors and decals help liven the car up some!

here are a few of my past toys —with custom decals I designed and had made in England by a shop there.

all the “subtle” guys will be horrified but my cars always get the most attention at Porsche meet up events - they are not boring and subtle - but they look like the toys they really are …..


I traded the GT4 for my allocation position for the 911 T - neo rubystar with gloss black aero kit/ and the dealer instantly pulled all my carefully designed gold and red and blue decals off before listing it. Their story is there are more boring guys out there than guys who are toy collectors.

the decal with the T can be easily pulled off - in five seconds- why would you not let it arrive with the decal?

it might grow on you. I wanted to add the top stripe in black - but the configurator refused to add the top stripe with the side stripe. Do it myself later.

see below —

What I heard is better to buy Bose and upgrade and you will have a better system than the Burmester. Of course getting it directly is easier and someone won’t be touching your car anymore. I personally hate the silver speakers. But without Bose the problem is the base system has no center woofer. But we will see what we can do. Base price starts around €1750 I think. The most expensive package is €6500 but will blow everything away. It’s just a shame Bose was not available. Stupid supply issues…
