Actually, I got the email on the 11th, but the My Porsche App on my phone tells me that it was on the 12th. Originally, it was supposed to be completed on the 17th, but I imagine that's been pushed back a few days.

There are pictures of a GT Silver Carrera on the assembly line, on my phone App. Are those pics of my actual car?

if you check your account you should see this. Mind you, this is the layout on my phone, but it more or less looks like this.



Blue box, click on “find out more” it appears when you have photos.

They are not silver like the part below on my picture. They are really white. As long as everybody knows it’s good. I just didn’t know otherwise I would get PDLS+ solely for that reason.
Found the side-by-side comparison of the lighting options. I agree that PDLS+ looks better. But could the money to get the chrome ring & remove the silver upper element be better spent on other options?

Hot damn! Look what just showed up. And it’s finished a week early!
Looks like I hit the tire lottery too!

Absolutely yes. I don’t get the need for headlight upgrades and stereo upgrades on the T. Half the time I’m in this thread, I have to look up to make sure I’m actually in the Carrera T thread. Seems more like a Lexus thread half the time. But that’s just me and I’m glad there are these options for others.

I've heard things like $5K for custom stitching on the wheel, $10K+ for full custom seats material & stitching, $1535 Race-tex sun visors with deviated cross stitching. I've attached a spreadsheet that's a few years old that I found elsewhere on RL.

Something like this interior would be completely amazing! However, CXX as a percentage of the T's price doesn't make as much sense versus an RS or Turbo S car.


This is correct, good of you to post. The only comment I’ll add is that even for GT#’s, the CXX rabbit hole can become insensibly costly *very* quickly.

They are indeed, like making you pay for folding wing mirrors …WTF !!!
When we bought my daughter a little Audi A1 around 11 years ago it came with foldable wing mirrors.
Still, let’s be thankful they chuck the steering wheel in for free!

Yeah - I have that option in my Taycan.
Makes a huge difference if you’re cornering at more than 83mph.
Not cheap!!
