Regarding the stripe, when I first looked at the car, my eye was drawn to the stripe and the clipper covers, but not in a good way. I immediately wondered why they were there on such a great car. JMHO.

Probably not going to keep two 911’s though and the green 992 will lose out to this one.
This is such a great spec!
Manual, 2018 paint to sample Grand Prix White, Akrapovic exhaust, FAL, sport chrono, ceramics, houndstooth carbon buckets, red deviated stitching, fire extinguisher, and more…
LOVE everything about it…except…I’m a bit indifferent about the stripe. It may stay, it may not. (Opinions welcome on that)
Will get better pics once the weather gets better and I get it off the lift.

Nice car. Congratulations I like the stripe. It gives a nice touch IMO and matches the calipers

It does photograph well but it's just a few gallons of paint on a beat up old tractor. I don’t use it for anything in winter but play around on my property with a brush hog or blade in the warmer months.

I change back to yellow. Agree that it matches the calipers. And I like that.

See why it’s so hard for me to make decision?!!??

Thanks guys. The money pit of this thing has just begun. Lights, wheels and bed cover just wiped $5k 3 days into owning lol.

I am mixed on the yellow, but for some reason it makes me think of a base Cayman. Like it’s an affordable flashy add that is someone’s only option on the basest car.

That said I still am torn on if I’d change it or not lol.

Not that it matters Richard but for some reason I like the stripe and I normally would pass on any sort of decal. I’d keep it.

Okay. From 20k over to sticker. Last model year. N/A V10 and a color I love. Great interior too. Blue stitching. But forgot to get pics of it.

Yeah man. I think it just might. End of an era. And the spec. But I’ll be happy if it simply holds well.

That’s outstanding! Love that car! You can’t appreciate it from pictures though… It’s so much more aggressive in person…the width, the lines, all of it…
Big congratulations my friend, it’s a beautiful beast!

Congrats Seth! Looks killer and the drivability is incredible. Is it filling (partially) the void of your ultimae?
