Thank you and yes, I had them made and took inspiration from the GT3 wheel but are sufficiently different that they can't be mistaken for one.

Does anyone know where the motor sport stripe decal is applied; factory, port, or dealer? I have seen elevator pics with the side decals, logically the factory does it, but.....

Yes, and the point he makes is the very reason I kept and love my T. I was in line for but was denied an ST. I'm on the list for a .2 GT3T but recently decided I want to spend 2-3 months out of the year roadtripping through the US and that's where the turbo engine, sport seats, and guiltless mileage come into play. I can see myself putting 30-40k mi per year. I'd love to think I'd do that in a GT car too, but not sure I would.

Maybe save u headaches/revisits. It unfortunately took multiple visits to sort for those mentioned. Hope things work out for u also…
Thanks. Fortunately, crisis averted. Huge shout out to my dealership Porsche Chandler.

The light came on while I was heading to pick up my kiddo from school. I called the service dept on the way and they said just bring it by and we'll scan it while you wait. I grabbed my kid from school, went to the dealership and as promised they had it in the back on a scan tool within 5 minutes. I got some goldfish, my kid got some Skittles and lied on the floor. Within 10 minutes service advisor came back and told us that the CEL had actually already gone out on its own... And that the stored code was for a front aero flap malfunction... My fault for washing the car and then parking it for three weeks. Must have gotten corroded. All in less than 25 minutes and we were on our way.

No explanation for the AutoRev match failure but that also came back on its own after a restart.

All good!

Wilder, the more I drive the more I like about the philosophy behind my T. I must admit it’s my first Porsche so my comparisons come from other drive philosophies I experienced from other German cars, but the DNA was still to enjoy the performance but in different ways. Now as I read more and more about our T versions the plan became clear and takes route in the present, the feel we get from the drive. Something my previous cars seemed to be dialing out over time in favor of becoming more race car dominant. As enjoyable as that was it became sterile with little to not much feel. Enter my now not to be departed T Porsche, I have never said this about any other automobile before, not even a tune or an upgrade within the line is needed. It’s really become my stable daily that makes these 60 yr old bones feel energized and in control when hitting it and loving it when cruising through town. I feel so lucky to have fallen into this allocation a previous buyer had canceled for whatever reason, as I too was inline for a year plus down the road delivery date.

They did not! That's good news I haven't checked the app recently.

I recently tested my glass, after I was told it’s a passenger safety issue. If the windshield pops during collision, the passenger airbag is as good as t¡t$ on a bull.
Fortunately my windshield doesn’t need replacement.
