Agreed on the clear taillights, I think it’s a bit overdone (I’m a bit younger, so to me it just gives vibes of some modded Infiniti/Honda/Toyota etc). In this color it actually works well, but for black or gray I’d stick with the red.
Yeap , Pretty much my mindset on that as well , same went for me personally with the color matched tach ring. Initially it was like putting glo gauges back in the day on a civic . Now they’ve grown on me and kinda wish I woulda done it in red to match the seatbelts but i won’t lose sleep over it
ya know what’s funny , when i went to the dealership 10 min away from my house I put my quicksilver card down to use for the 1k down to get on wait list . 4-5 weeks went by and he never swiped it than I decided to go else where and went alll the way to Pittsburgh Porsche where they had an available allocation . Maybe I’m nuts but I think me using the quicksilver card the salesrep didn’t take me seriously
Weird!!
First lesson of salesmanship is don’t make presumptions about your customer’s wealth!!
Interesting that a PDK Carrera could reach 312 km/h and a Carrera T with the sport design package and manual gearbox only 303 km/h (~288 km/h GPS).
0-100 km/h in 4.36 s
100-200 km/h in 9.84 s
I have to remind myself every time, not to touch the glass when entering or exiting and get a hold of the door edge instead.
The (two layer) glass is so thin!

Been waiting for this and hopefully the full review to come. As to the Autobahn blast, I'm wondering if grabbing 6th rather than holding 5th far past the power peak at 6500rpm held the speed back.

It should have been tried. Peak power is 6,500 and torque is pretty flat the whole way, so there's no reason to go to redline really. Typically, one goes past peak HP so that when you shift, the new gear is not put below the power band of torque, but the T torque curve is very flat.

Also wondering exactly that. Why he kept it at redline in 5th instead of changing into 6th and see what happens.
My M3 CS behaves similarly when going up on a slight incline: at around 270 km/h, keeps 5th at redline for a few moments longer, then changes into 6th and starts accelerating again.

Shorter final drive ratio might have something to do with 992T slightly lower top-end.
I much prefer shorter final drive, it’s more fun across the entire range and I have no intention of going +300 km/h.

I thought shorter final drive was only a 991.2 T thing...not on the 992T?
