Nice to have a partner who shares your passion for beautiful cars although this one is more akin to a fine garment she would order off Neta Porte - makes for an easy sale at home....
Turbo S with SC interior will be exquisite! Congratulations.

My wife loves Porsches. She has a Macan GTS and a Cayenne Turbo on the way. And the good news is she loves my Porsche Tractor as much as me!

I read that as your wife has two sporty Porsche SUVs on order at first and was really scratching my head there a second.

She wishes! She's trading her Macan for the Cayenne Turbo.

Was driving today and saw this driving down the road. Followed it to Porsche Irvine. They pulled it into the showroom just in time for the new owner to take delivery. Stunning. The duck tail looks amazing in person.

I signed paperwork today and handed over a very large check. We pick ours (#869) up in Zuffenhausen in a couple of weeks, then have a fun drive planned. Nobody told me there’s a book. I’m guessing all owners get one but I don’t remember hearing it mentioned.

Linden Green with black & Pepita interior.

It’s a PTS color that was original to the ‘73 Carrera RS as an option. 23 of 1580 were ordered in it.

Edit.- oh, snap, sorry, I thought you were asking about mine. Good question about the Irvine car. Kinda looks like Gemini, but it looks lighter and maybe not metallic.

I don’t know why but they always look a bit effeminate and noncey. They have a whiff of the “Beverly Hills celebrity hairdresser dahhhhling, mwah” that I really dislike and the oversized decals are just too try hard. I’m not a fan.

Never having heard the word "noncey," I looked it up. It's UK slang for pedophile. So, in one sentence, you described the car as effeminate and then showed you to be sexist and misogynistic. How about saying it's not your "cup of tea" instead of getting personal and out of line?

About the car, I think it looks amazing. Notice how I didn't say "macho" or "studly;" or that driving the car clearly shows that the owner has "bagged lots of chicks." Perhaps you could tell us what 911 models would check those boxes?
