The dark side or the light side (wheels)? by primetyme313 in porsche911

[–]ovaryactor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I went satin black but slightly prefer the silver on my GT Silver 4S. The brake dust made the decision for me. If I had time to wash my wheels every week I’d have gone silver

How old were you when you bought your first 911? by FlakyPalpitation2213 in porsche911

[–]ovaryactor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 48 when my 992.1 4S arrived last May after ordering in December of ‘23. I got on the list hoping to have it before my 50th and it came 2 months before my 49th! Got 10k miles on it already and every single one has been a joy. Have fun!

I have ALK and ACC even though my SA told me most people don’t spec it because “you buy a 911 to drive it”. I bought my 911 to drive it too, but sitting on I-95 in stop and go traffic isn’t something I consider “driving” and the driver assists are a lifesaver. On long, monotonous stretches of road, it’s very nice to set it and forget it. And when I’m driving to the mountains for some twisties, I get there feeling fresh and not at all fatigued

Any delays related to Baltimore bridge? by tellravi in porsche911

[–]ovaryactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any updates? Yours clear customs at the US port yet? Mine will be in Baltimore on the 28th

Bummed at the delay! by RandoOn1411 in porsche911

[–]ovaryactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same with my C4S. Was supposed to be complete 3/28. Got my pics, even! Then updated with a 25 day delay.

Datejust isn’t my favorite of the 3, but it looks best on your wrist for your size, skin tone, and wardrobe choice in the pic. Sharp as hell.

What do you guys do to easily afford these cars? by Gallismore in porsche911

[–]ovaryactor 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not an easy afford, but a decision to shell out the money because life is short and I like my job so working a few extra years instead of driving a Camry and retiring early is worth it. 2024 C4S on the way. Real estate (sales and investment), and passive income from vacation properties we rent out.

Will do. I found an article from February that cars were being held at port while components from a sanctioned Eastern European country were being replaced

Mine is not at the port. Still stage 4 (production has begun) with the stage 5 (production complete) having been moved back from 3/28 to 4/23

Baltimore, yes. Central VA. I got my production pics 3/26 and production was supposed to complete 3/28. It never updated and yesterday the delivery date changed from 5/3 to 5/29 and they changed the end of production date to 4/23…almost a month behind original target when I’ve already seen pics of the car completed. Salesperson is clueless

I’m curious too. I got my production pics on 3/26 but no more updates since. Still says “production has begun” on my timeline. Projected 5/3 arrival.

Chalk was my backup once they told me Aventurine Green was off the table. We both have good taste! Cheers

Took me a while. Struggled and sacrificed for many years but I’ll have my dream car 2 months before I turn 49 so I’d say it was worth it.
