Yo!

Just got confirmation of build date on the above...looks like I'll be collecting around end of March start of April...good times...

Spec as follows:

Rhodium Silver
Turbo Exterior Package
Pano Roof
Reversing Camera
PDLS with LED
Adaptive Cruise
and maybe something else (I forget...)

Moving from a B8 RS4 Nogaro Selection- will miss the V8 engine, but looking forward to my first taste of Porsche...

Welcome! I think the silver will look fab - have you had the chance to drive one?

Got a run in the standard Turbo, but couldn't get a PP. was happy with the Turbo, but, as I always tend to do, I opted for the next one up...

from what I've seen on reviews (of the few that there are) it gets a good write up - apart from people always saying "GTS is plenty"... maybe it is, if you're coming from a 2.0TDi or something... noise, presence and options on the PP sealed it for me...

Good choice. IMO the standard turbo could do with a bit more urge, though most of the time it's fine. 2 tonnes is a big lump to shift when despatching multi vehicle overtakes. PP was just a bit too expensive for me to get it with the options I wanted. Wait was too long too. Look forward to hearing your thoughts on it when you get it.

Congrats and welcome to the forum.
Turbo PP should be an incredible drive. Plenty of punch and power

Rhodium is a great colour and love it on my GTS

What wheels did you go with?

Congrats on your build slot !!
I drove a Turbo PP on my Porsche Range Day IMO it was the fastest car I drove round the track.

Thanks for the welcome! and good to hear positive comments on the spec! Always a minefield when speccing a Porsche!

Wheels wise I went for the 21" 911 Turbo design wheels with painted gloss black spoke sides. was between that and the 20" Spyder wheels, but these came with the pack...

I've not had confirmation of a range day yet, so hoping to get it sorted soon...I did get taken to a closed track (airstrip) by my SE and allowed to throw a 991.2 Targa S around, when I was originally looking at a 911 (wife + budget and my want for a well specced GTS put paid to that for now)...

Hopefully hear back on it soon.
