Don't worry about this and you do your wing the way you want it, bro! Especially if you are hearing grief from a guy who perma-attached a tail to his own car talking about lines being ruined... Just sayin'. Happy snaps to illustrate my point from before:

Lower aka Is my Spoiler Up Mode? aka Ask your doctor if Porsche is right for you Mode:


Higher aka T Mode! aka Is that your Spoiler or are you just happy to see me Mode?

How do you activate the different height modes?

Drive your car.

Joking aside, that is why I asked the question... I'm not sure the 992 gets as elevated as the 991. You guys may not need the extra downforce with aero improvements in your gen. If you are driving and deploy the spoiler in the 991, it will be at the highest angle and stay that way. I just let the car do its thing and never really manually deploy it. In fact, in Individual mode, I tell it not to deploy until it needs it for speed or cooling... The conjecture for the 991 is that it uses the same angle and methods implemented in the GT3 T. Will be cool to see some side-by-side pics (and driving impressions! ahem...) from 991 and 992 T Army members in the near term now that you guys are getting your beauties.

Regarding PPF...

This weekend I picked up GT3 from the shop with a liquid wrap and front PPF. I took it on a 300 mi drive and came back with minor road rash on the lower wheel wells behind the wheels. Took it back and I'm upgrading to full PPF. If you want to both drive the car without care and are OCD about things like rock chips and nicks, you may want to consider full PPF.

Mine finished on the 15th and is still in Emden and yours is with you tomorrow! Frustrating it's so inconsistent. Oh well the wait goes on... Probably be another price rise before I get mine.

Bob! That was him! Was trying to remember who the guy was that was spoiler-shaming everyone when I got my first Pcar in 2019

I did the Track Pack which is front and rear quarters. Definite performance gains

*EDIT: Also did carbon roof, front spoiler and had him raise the rear quarter line to door handle height.

Give your dealer a call, I think mine arrived at Emden at a very similar time to yours, it went on the boat to Grimsby yesterday according to their system update today.

Can someone remind me what was the break-in period? Was it 1,000 miles or 1,900? I’m currently at 940 miles and can’t wait to let the engine sing

One of the prettiest cars ever made. They look so amazing in person the pictures don't do it justice.

I was told 980-ish as that's 1500km. Have at it!

These wheels are fantastic, they don't work on every build but they certainly make the car on this one.
