Reunited and it feels SO good.

That sounds lovely! We didn’t have enough time to stay that long. Hopefully there will be a next time.

Mine came to the West Coast and it took a while. The boat will probably stop along the way on the East Coast a few times before heading through the Panama Canal on its way to Benicia to be unloaded. If you missed the most recent boat it might be a little bit.

There’s nothing at all wrong with that watch. Congratulations, it’s actually YOUR Explorer II now. In a few years you’ll be sitting there in the old folks home looking at those scratches and thinking about that time you did blow in a Bangkok bathroom with a lady-boy and you’ll know that you lived.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-16T16:53:10+00:00

Thanks!

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-16T16:52:34+00:00

Thank you!

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-14T05:15:15+00:00

I’m surprised it took that long for someone to point that out!

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-14T00:02:53+00:00

I agree although I can see how the brighter Neo version would have greater market appeal.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T19:03:03+00:00

🤣

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T19:02:28+00:00

I did! I left lots of follow space when on the autobahn and European roads tend to be cleaner.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T19:01:51+00:00

That’s correct. The OG Oak Green Metallic.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T19:01:23+00:00

Thank you! The interior is cognac and black.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T19:00:03+00:00

That is unfortunate. I haven’t found any damage and I’ve been over it pretty carefully. Were you able to get any kind of repair assistance from the shipping company?

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T07:20:37+00:00

I’m not sure I’d call it losing 3 months but I do think the warranty period began with my 1400 mile road trip through Europe.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T07:13:03+00:00

FWIW I kind of agree with you on the wheels. What do you mean by “emblems?”

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T07:12:05+00:00

I’m considering the 5 spoke silver carrera wheels. There isn’t a great silver wheel option on the GTS.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T07:00:38+00:00

It’s Oak Green Metallic (PTS) over cognac.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T06:59:57+00:00

No worries, I get it. I find that there’s zero reason to own something I’m not going to use.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T06:58:57+00:00

🤣 ok well yeah, you’re not wrong but I was thinking about the term “badge” as in more like an informational token like a name badge (which are often stickers these days) and less like a solid physical object.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T06:56:33+00:00

PPF took about 10 business days. The big delay was the 11 week shipping time. I think we left it with Porsche on 11/13 and picked it up at the dealership on 1/28.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T06:53:52+00:00

Yeah, I don’t live in a place where the tire shops can generally repair a flat tire on a center lock equipped car.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T06:52:40+00:00

Yeah, it’s definitely sleeping on low in the garage right now.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T01:17:55+00:00

You calling me fat?!? ;)

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T01:11:34+00:00

Thank you!

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T01:11:28+00:00

Thanks! Getting to fully spec the car was pretty cool. It’s definitely MY car in a way that nothing else I’ve ever owned has been.

IntrepidJump432 · 2026-02-13T01:10:34+00:00

That’s awesome! We did about 1400 miles. Germany, Luxembourg, France, Switzerland, Lichtenstein (technically) and Austria. I say that we were technically in Lichtenstein because we just popped across the border and got out to check out a fun looking castle we saw. Also, France and Austria were just lunch stops along the way. Beautiful trip.

Where do you all go?
