Does that mean no shark blue or yellow, either? Or are those going away concurrent with the .2 release? I haven’t been following the timing closely.

A SB C2S cab would be sweet, but I’m biased.

Correct, SB and RY are discontinued for the 992.1 beginning 03/15/24. Individuals that have orders placed and are scheduled to be built after that date have already been denied either color by PAG.

Ruby Star Neo is being discontinued in April.

One would suspect with the discontinuation of various paint colors that we are approaching the dot two arriving sooner than most expect? I’m sure the two, .1 and .2 will be built side-by-side as that has been the case in the past

I was using the configurator a few months back, when this was really just a pipe dream. Then, I was thinking gentian blue, nice silver snowflake wheels, heritage interior with the tan and pepita fabric inserts. Manual. Burmester.

I am dying to hear your impressions of the gearbox to compare to your 997. And the sound. And the damping. And the brakes.

Everything.

For some screwed up reason it sat outside port for six days while other vehicle carriers came and went. This is stop #1. Porsche has 3 east coast VPCs. Davisville, Baltimore, and Jacksonville.

Yeah the heritage is cool, and Gentian is the best color for it.
