Congrats!! I just took delivery of mine 2 weeks ago. Took 3.5 months from order date. If you are like me, and get as excited as a child at Christmas, this forum will be your saving grace. Can't wait to see photos of the painted interior options you ordered. I went with Aluminum.

1 piece of advice. . . Try to see a vehicle, or at least an actual picture of the clear tail lights to make sure it is what you want. You probably already saw them on the Configurator, but if not, you can when you build the car in 3D mode.

Agree with dhill. Do have a look at he clear tail lights. IMO they are blindly and on a red car I think red may look better.

Did you consider pdcc?

Congratulations and enjoy the experience!

Yeah, dump the clear tail lights, yuck...

You have a lot of red interior pieces,...have you seen it on the 3D configurator?,....might be a bit much,....I have a guards red car coming and love the color, but that would be a bit much for me. Otherwise some great options!

the clear lights looks good in the config. 3D, I saw an image of a clear light in other thread!! man it does not look good. the problem is my order is locked and any change will delay my order, If I did not like it I would definitely tint it as someone else suggested

I quit motorsport a year ago, so PDCC will not do me any good.

i know, too much red, i like red and i will be spending most of the time in the car so why not paying extra and get what i like

Thank you all, I am very happy with my order, I like how porsche consider everything as an option, if u need it get if u dont need it dont get it.

attached screenshots of my configuration
the screenshots show cup kit, I ordered the sportdesignkit
