992 Carrera T Club
Walk around video of my just delivered Guard’s red 911 T - matching red interior trim and red interior bits as well. Only 109 miles so far.
wife hates the 7 speed manual already and wants me to sell this car and replace it with a PDK 911- cabriolet preferably.
Maybe I will replace it with a GT3 - lots of them available at dealers these days. But then she will complain it rides too rough and is too loud on the road.
This 911 T is louder and a more serious sports car than my 2022 Targa 4 —- Faster feeling as well.

I am thinking a PDK GTS Cabriolet would be a good substitute for the T - sneaky way of getting permission to spend even more money on a new Porsche for my little collection.
Anyone interested in a new 911 T? Private message.

@dassArse Ha, something tells me u used to DJ, rap, b-boy, beat box, or etc. for some reason. U have to share. Sure, I’ll hook up my 1200s on the T rear shelf and throw down some beats at Bear Mountain. Well, ok maybe just let folks hear my 10 inch sub added for the bass.
My audio guy and I tested the T system and learned that the stock speakers can handle more power. Connected a cheap pioneer amp to test and all speakers sounded better. However, Due to chip shortage, we’re delayed getting the amp I really want. Once we get it, we plan on driving the stock speakers first with a high quality amp and replace only the necessary speakers to keep costs down. The 2 easiest ones are located behind the front seats. As mentioned, the sub is in for the bass coverage. Getting there to what I hoped for overall in sound + budget. BTW, it’s all 100% reversible/removable without a trace if desired. He used a custom harness. No wires cut.

You can use YouTube's CC and auto-translate functions. Also, speaking both German and English, I can understand a lot of what he is saying.

Just so happens I got suckered by Spotify in to buying my very first vinyl record today, well not even buying, pre-ordering, apparently everything needs to be pre-ordered these days…

Delivery day at PEC ATL - right now all I can really say is wow... Photos are the ones from the PEC staff so no interiors yet. That'll have to wait until we get home.... If it wasn't for the fact that Porsche jacked the price up so ridiculously this year I'd recommend a PEC delivery. If nothing else, do the driving experiences...

Update: Violet Ace is docking in Jacksonville, only a few more days if all goes well!
As of today, it’s been 901 days since I kicked off this whole thing. How poetic would it be if I picked it up on day 911?

Mark and Zack are great folks. Don't worry if it's raining during your track time, it won't impact the experience at all. It was chucking down but we still did everything on the West Course. If anything the rain makes it easier to deliberately break the car free.
