Have they said you could have options such as paint to sample, exclusive leather interior and ceramics?

I have an August build and have just had to submit a revised spec based on the configurator updates to see what I can actually get as my OPC don't seem to think I can have PTS or EM interior even though I can now spec it.
A while ago I was told that I could have a car this year but without PCCB’s and PTS or I could wait until next year and probably/possibly have a car with PCCB’s and PTS. “Next year” has been brought forward to October/November and I’m having PCCB’s and PTS. No restrictions on interior leather has ever been mentioned to me, I’m getting a lot of it.

My Touring is in build next month as a model year 22 car . Although still changeable I can't update to the current configurator which is for model year 23 cars - not sure the exact date it updates

Have you got ceramics, EM leather interior or PTS?

Excuse the delay. I pushed back to a July build to ensure I got ceramics. Waiting for PTS would have pushed it back to a later (not guaranteed) allocation which I wasn't prepared to risk.

Anyone else get the bad news last week of further delays to 911 and 718 production? Seems to include cars partially built and on the production line.

My 'March build' Touring had been finally due end-June, now no re-forecast date. Any views gratefully received.

My Touring with PCCB's due to complete Mid July, pretty sure they will want all cars wrapped up & out the door by end of July before the factory productions stop for re-tooling

Out of interest what spec have you gone for?

Still undecided whether to go Touring or winged.

Hunted down a GT silver Touring the other week and must admit first impression I was a little underwhelmed looking at it against my 991.2 GT3 CS.

I think being underwhelmed is the whole point of the Touring - the wolf in sheeps clothing/sleeper effect...

Which is exactly why it's the only 911 I would consider buying. I guess you either love them or hate them!

Will no doubt get scorned by some, but works for me as will be used regularly and mainly on the road, so it's comfy chairs and pdk.

When is yours due for delivery?

My spec's due to lock in 3 weeks, and I'm being told September delivery, although I suspect that may slip to October.

I’ve been told October build for November delivery.

Apparently the factory is pulling forward the freeze points on all GT3 orders.

Thanks. Sounds like mine may get pushed back, although Sept seemed to still be on the cards earlier this week.

Exciting times regardless

It is getting a bit exciting. I’ve totally lost interest in my highly specified 991.2 GT3 now I know for sure that I’m getting a 992 GT3. I’m that shallow!
