Yes, without generating income on the video watch.

I like your build. It will be nice to add the bigger turbos. just one question. Are you going to change the turn signals?

$30k+ more than our 2022 "S" with Premium Package, Club Leather and MT. Standard color (GR).
All that other stuff doesn't add to the driving experience IMO.

Hate the aero kit and the PDK is a shame but otherwise, nice car.

Highlights how much inflation has occurred. Base on a 24 T was $124,900! Not to mention difficulty in obtaining an allocation for even an S over the past couple years.

It’s a T for esthetics rather than a drivers spec. People spend their money how they like, if that’s what makes them happy.

As an owner of several 911s, I think it looks great. The reason the calipers are grey is because they are a special Agate Grey Metallic to match mirrors and badging. That is specific to the Carerra T. Making your 911 distinctive to you is what makes them great and special.

I was actually watching one of your YT videos of the car last night. The car looks fantastic, beautiful spec- don't worry about if it went overboard or not, it's a head turner!

the calipers are not painted to match the T accents. they are same grayish, black look of the Base Carrera. I am about to have mine painted.

You seen to be right. My Carerra T had gloss black calipers not grey but I realized they were an option.

It's a PDK?!? The only way to get the base engine in a manual is the T. Interesting decision there. Might as well get a base then. That's the thing I always forget about the T is that it is the base engine.

Love the rear wing. Though not a fan of the black wing or black wheels. Went to the 7 minute mark, didn't see the build sheet.

The T was the only allocation the dealer had. So he wasn't really interested in a T per se, he wanted a Porsche 911... So he specced it how he wanted it.
