I do mean the car. Sorry I am a terrible luddite and never figured out how to post pictures after Photobucket spat the dummy.

Thanks Pivo you have kept us all going. Appreciate your encouraging posts.

Thanks @Docmem, I am enjoying this “group therapy” :-)

Seeing your cars land in your driveways, gives me an encouragement to wait another few weeks and enjoy mine, when it finally arrives.

In the meantime, send us more pictures.

Congratulations. What spec did you go for?

[Dixy]

Poverty spec

Poverty spec

I would call it old school spec!
No unnecessary bells and whistles.

From the other end

Just a C2
14 way seats, glass tilt and slide, Led matrix lights, park assist and suround view and lane change assist.

Thats not poverty spec. Its Star Trek spec.

mine is proper pov. spec.

4 way seats, green, 2 stickers and rubber mats. That was it - best car I have ever owned in my life.



Still, I got timed 0-60 at 3.51 seconds last month. The lack of spec helps the weight reduction.

I leave the spec to my wife's bloatmobile.

Yours looks fantastic.

The minimalistic 911 badge looks very elegant!

A-Green is my favorite color from the available range.

@Dixy - the car and the gentian blue looks great. Pleased with it on mine as it looks good even under dull November skies.

I also have the surround view and find it useful to try to get the car into a normal garage… Don’t have the rear wiper though as preferred the everyday reduced road noise of the lightweight glass..

[Dixy]

As this is a 40 year itch I am scratching the rear wiper was as iconic on the early cars as the big spoiler on the 80s turbos.

Rear lite wipers were followed with headlight wipers (on other marques)… utter indulgence :-)

That is a great spec, how much did your spec come too if you don't mind? I have on mine 4 way, glass tilt and slide, surround view, lane change, adaptive cruise, exclusive tail lights, lane change assist and easy entry. Car is still on order but looking at your spec it has everything useful and now I'm thinking about changing mine. If im honest I may even take off the adaptive cruise ohhh i don't know.

One question though, with your 14 way seats you get the passenger side side mirror dip? Correct?
How are you finding the surround view, I hear the camera res isn't as good as say BMW or Merc etc. But I did hear they would be making it better?

Do you have Bose too? If not and you have the standard system, how is it? As Bose now isn't an option.

Of all the extras the matrix lights are the best, I live in a very rural area and they are just stunning.
Sound systems are something I never understand, in an environment that has background noise spending anything with a comer makes no sense to me.
The seats are fab and my wife loves being able to raise and tilt the seat. Slightly surprised the steering wheel is not electric for reach and height.

I am glad you singled-out the Matrix lights. I always order best lights I can get.
I drove a demo with Matrix overnight and I agree, these are superior lights.

I am tossing between Sport Plus 4-way, vs 18-way.

@Dixy, is the seat comfort the same, just with additional electric adjustments, or is the seat more padded and comfortable, before the adjustments?

My Mrs. is also keen on max comfort, so not sure of the diff. I always had Sport Plus, not entirely convinced of 18-way.
