GT Silver C2S

Sorry it's taken a while, but new to uploading pictures. Already tried posting on the other GT Silver Picture thread, but apparently it did not go through.

Cheap camera and very limited photography skills, but here are some pictures of the car.

Beautiful! I'm a big fan of deviating stitching and can't wait to see mine!

Thanks SanibelSpeed!

Yes, it is well worth it to me. I lack the photography skills like others on this forum possess, but I can assure you that the pictures don't do it justice.

You will love the deviated stitching. It really does add to the interior IMHO. I took over a year on the configurator patiently considering just about everything, then went all out on this car to make it the one I wanted. Checked almost all the Interior Leather Option boxes on the car, stuck with the 7 Speed Manual just cause I'm old school and like to row my own gears (No Regrets), Aerokit Cup, X51 Powerkit and so forth.

Love the car (a few disappointments as you're aware of in the "brown dot" thread) but otherwise, very happy.

CarreraS737, I'm Mr. Impulse compared to you! I'd been thinking about a 2014 Corvette Coupe with the old school MT7 but my wife wasn't too happy with it though she did like the looks of the car in pics. I figured I'd wait until they get to dealer showrooms and take a closer look and then see if I could sell her on the idea. Instead, she saw a Guards Red/Luxor Cayman and said, "Why don't you get one of these instead of a Corvette?" Within 2 weeks I'd placed my order for the same colors but in a C2S. You took a year and I took 2 weeks! Now I just have to wait another 4 weeks or so....

Fantastic build! I echo the compliments of the deviated stitching. It's absolutely gorgeous. Congrats and drive it well, in good health.

Thanks All,

Ya know, there really aren't any bad choices.

THEY ALL LOOK AMAZING!!!

This is why it took a year to build. This is my first Porsche. Coming from a 2011 E92 BMW M3 (Lemans Blue). I spent about four 5-6 months deliberating over colors on the configurator. All the available options and the eye-watering Porsche pricing made decisions more complicated.

The information and knowledge shared on this Forum was instrumental in making many of them. Thanks to everyone!

One of the reasons I decided to go with the GT Silver is the relative ease of keeping it looking clean vs. darker colors I've owned in the past.

All Good.

Love the options you have on the car!
