In for Sept Production

I pulled my strings and got a sept production slot.

SPT Chrono
LSD
Spt Seats w creast and red stitch
Thick Steering Wheel
Red Belts

The only thing I couldn't get was red dials

Car will get painted bottoms and full interior as it gets here

I spoke with Porsche about the colored dials. They weren't sure why they're not available for US customers despite the fact that they're readily available for those from Europe. I wanted to get yellow speed dials too.

Congrats on your order! I concur also with drbf about getting the sportshifter! I also however suggest that you get your order locked in ASAP and NOT change it because that's how mine got bumped.

Mine is in, no changes as of now.

Sport Shifter came to mind but decided on an aftermarket one. I tried the one on the Turbo and is not all that good. I'll get a B&M instead.

On the dials, they had White, Yellow and Silver but no Red incredible don't you think?

The stitching, full would run me around $1900, I only went with seats at $757. I'm planning some TechArt stuff inside, the new carbon fabric, so I just went with seats.

Late novemeber I should see this Turbo around here...
