    Fantastic!   Looks amazing.   Congrats again!  Smiley

    I'm glad I changed my colour on my (still to be built)  Carrera S  to Agate Grey.   It simply looks stunning!!

    Thanks a lot, guys. I will have the Porsche and Turbo S badges removed on Friday, the really don't look good in silver. 

    Yes. Agate looks better than expected but the black/Carrera red bi-color interior looks really stunning, the red is darker than expected. I honestly believe this is a very nice combo.

    Ha! Got you! And told you so! You should paint one of the logos black and place it centered (the Porsche one would be my pick). Somehow in real life no logo in the back looks strange... at least to me.

    On the color combo: perfect! If I would order a Turbo that is what I would pick too, both ext&int color.

    Re: Born Sept. 27th, 2013

    I wanted to order the Porsche and model designation badges in black from the beginning but Porsche does not offer this option. So I went with the original silver badges but they really do not fit the car right. I have them removed and I may replace them later on with black painted ones. Still not decided on this one.

    RC:

    Here we go, guys...my baby. Name: El Turbo (aka "The Beast"). indecision (my son named it).

    Surprisingly, Agate Grey looks amazing live. Everybody seems to love this color, everybody was very skeptical before.

    Also, regarding the Black/Carrera Red Bi-Color interior: The red is darker than it looks on photos, more of a cherry red. It fits the exterior color perfectly.

    Fantastic looking car. Love the interior..had the same combo in my M3 and never grew tired of it.

    Enjoy it Smiley

    You may want to ask the dealer to change the default setting for auto stop\start. It wasn't possible when I got my car, but is now.

    Good hint, thanks. Will try to get it done. Unfortunately I messed up their work timeframe already, so I'm not sure they can do it this Friday. They connect the PiWiS anyway, so maybe...

    Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. Smiley Now the break-in period comes...it will be torture.

    More photos. Sorry for the bad quality but it was almost dark (yes, I know it looks different but the iPhone apparently set the ISO to the highest setting, this is why it doesn't look dark outside but it was, almost dark and I had the flash turned off).

    I will post high quality photos as soon as I get the car (and a day without rain).
