Default Goodbye 991.1 Hello 991.2

Just traded for 0 miles 991.2 with all the options I wanted minus one. Started the day negotiating for a graphite blue but chickened out and went with this rhodium silver. What a striking difference in every way from my previous 991.1. Love torque... Please don't tell me that a (s) or gts or whatever would be even better. My fun meter is pegged, can't take anymore right now.
Changed my mind, go ahead and tell me. Who needs a drivers license anyway.

I wonder how much load that wall can support.

Rhodium is such a cool color. IMO, not enough cars come in rhodium. I love it! Great buy!

Looks great. Enjoy it.

Obviously you did not read the "I am not gonna buy a 991.2" thread.

OK, wait a minute... a Yamaha, an F800 GT, a pick'em-up-truck and an SUV plus a 911...

Your toy quotient is too high now. You'll have to give up the BMW bike to a worthy recipient. Hint, hint.

Enjoy! I liked the rhodium silver as well but went with Agate gray in the end.

991.1 was agate, great color. You should have seen the garage before the cleanout. 7 bikes and three times the purged car and bike stuff hanging on the wall. now I can move in there. small steps.

Fun meter is pegged for me too. I'm three weeks into my base (GT Silver here) with a MT. Lets just say it is all the guided missile I need. Congrats!

Here are the options. I badly wanted adaptive cruise. Some have found unicorns.
