I think it looks good in dark silver along with the rest of the car. Black wheels are notoriously hard to keep clean as well.

I think the spyder wheels in dark silver looks good with the rest of the car through the photos! I guess seeing them in person could be different though.

@fanboy based off of MBF’s timeline, we’ll probably see production completed/photos around Thursday or Friday since we went into production same day

Heard mixed reviews on each tire so not sure what would be the "better" tires.

This was my 992.1 Lava Orange w/Black Aero Kit. Could not miss it.

Woke up to this happy sight this morning! The email says it’s out of production but the web site still says step 4. But it does have two production photos. Just the two photos though. Hopefully more will show up!

Hopefully you will get a completed photo in the next day or so. It took one day after the completion of mine this week for the pics to appear. I was also impressed with how quickly the vehicle went from completed to arriving at German port Emden. It was 3 days. Hoping our cars don't get stuck waiting at port for weeks!

Crossing fingers they get on a ship soon! Hopefully it means I get some top-down driving in before the cold weather settles in here in October...

Same! Since Emden is delayed getting to the port, hopefully we catch that ship!

For those of you that are making progress with your build, how many days did production (step 4) take to complete? Seems like 4-5 days is typical?

My build went to production Monday, and as of a few weeks ago my SA's dealer system showed 1 month in production. Really hoping Porsche was sandbagging due to pending August plant shutdown, and that I move to step 5 Friday or Monday!
