Of course you're not - it will look great with the GT Silver and as the car should look for a special anniversary model.
Thanks mate. Fingers crossed. Just I’ve been driving a boxster with black leather and red stitching and red dials for a few days. And I like it.

Wow. That’s good news. I thought all the uk allocation of 25 Ed had gone.
Nice one

Maybe a few more than 80 or so cars coming to the uk then.
I can see a few hitting the used market towards the ends of the year

Was at PCGB today and their silver/red car was parked outside. If I was lucky enough to be in the position of getting one this is the colour scheme I would go for even though the gold does clash a little with the silver and red.
Congratulations to all those who have secured one.


Nice pics. Glad I chose gt silver now. Looks great.

Put this 25 edition reg number into WBAC out of curiosity Less than £70 k was the offer. And I thought WBAC were offering top prices on Porsche at the mo.

Just visited my local OPC. I believe they have just had one arrive and it is awaiting pdi. It is blo0dy stunning in the flesh. Pictures don’t do it justice. Whoever specced it has gone for Burmester. It is number 460.
Nice pics. Is that a shark blue gt4 in the pic as well ?

Spoke to my opc Friday. He said my b25 should be with me end of September. I’m not holding my breath though
Silver. Red interior and red roof.
Been driving a 718 s boxster for a few weeks now. (Loan car ). And it’s brilliant. If the 4l engine is better I can’t wait to drive it.

I've not spoken to my OPC for a few weeks but based on the dates I saw on their system on my last visit mine is currently due at the end of September as well after slipping from the end of August. I'm not going to get too excited yet though, if this experience is anything to go by so far I'm going to wait until I get the official confirmation its been built smile
I know the feeling mate. It’s certainly been a drag. The dates change all the time. And I agree until the build has actually started I’m sceptical.

My Car entered the body shop on 27 July, came out a couple of days later and has moved precisely nowhere since furious
Every week the dates for the rest of the process just slip back another week. So much for “it will be ok when the build has started”.

Showing Sept build finish now. Not bad for a May delivery car.
Didn’t know you can check things like that. ? I’ll ask my opc. I feel for the guys getting 2nd or 3rd b25. Will be 2022 I reckon

It would seem that some asian (Chinese?) markets are getting four cylinder motors in their 25s. I assume this would be the same spec as the 2.5GTS?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKJ1LBpK56M

At 13:10 they have a shot of the exhaust and it seems pretty conclusive.
Yeah. Strange. Why would some be the 2.5 ?
A big attraction for me is the 4l 6cylinder engine
Although the 2.5 in the boxster s I’ve driven recently is
Really good IMO

Mine was the 12th but now 21st apparently. Sounds like in reality it could be anywhere between it's built already and Nov delivery.
True. My opc said mine is the first of 2 they are getting. So the 2nd is gonna be next I think by the look of it
A 25th anniversary car in the 26th year
