The fun games are endless.

Enjoy!
Got the Eagles this time around. Last one was P zeros and 991.2 had Yokohamas. 7 orders with 0 Michelins.
The Yokohamas were good. Didn’t like the Pirellis.

Nice! My 992 is heading to Denver from Freeport hopefully in a few days so that’s good to know. Congrats on your delivery

Default Farewell to this thread!

It's time to say goodbye ... the 992 Turbo S has arrived! Once the modding is done, I will check back in with an update.

Mine, too, just arrived at the port, where TYD is saying it will leave on on 4/26. Curious to hear what yours says about the boat ride.
Never got the elevator shot, so will have to wait to see in person what tires I got.

My 4S has been waiting at the port since 4/2 with TYD saying it should leave on a ship 4/17. But looking at the schedule on PWL's website the next ship "SFL Composer" doesn't arrive until 4/22-4/23. So who knows...
I also didn't get an elevator shot. Only one shot each from the paint and body shop...

It is so not German, and also not ISO, to have different cars get different shots in the same factory. I could see if the build was in different places, but the same set up is used - no reason to vary the result.

Thanks, good to know! Mine is going from Freeport to San Antonio, so hopefully a couple days less time.

All depends on clearing customs I suppose...

For those with a car on the Siem Cicero, it looks like the vessel is making its way finally into Freeport to dock!

any exclusive manuf parts? Perhaps they backed out? I saw in some video where the exclusive turbo was built that it moves production lines.
