Spyder: this combo is similar to the one I've been working with the consultant, only difference is the dashboard is also grey...any reason you didn't opt for all grey...congrats though it's a beauty!

1. Lighter dashes can cause more reflections off of the windshield.
2. I prefer the look of the two-tone interior.

Looks awesome.
Interested in details wrt the sunroof. You mentioned one touch roof open but manual shade?

More pix and s/r details to follow. Wifey expects to go to dinner now. They get that way sometimes.

Two weeks isn't so bad I guess.
My dealer is checking to see if it's a supply or quality issue. Guessing supply.

OK, here's a couple of images taken during my delivery brief. Sorry that none specifically show the glass s/r but, truth be known, there is no discernible exterior difference on a dark car. Otoh, light cars would have a nearly black roof with the glass s/r closed, alook that I find appealing.
Anyway, here's the exterior of my DBMS/2-tone 991 C2S.....
It'll never be that clean again, and, as noted above, it is currently filthy

Yep, unfortunately i just got the message from my PC and it is true 6 weeks delay for all 911 ordered with the glass sunroof, what a sh.... The reason is still unclear, but it looks more like a "technical problem" (not confirmed statement).....
...anyone else more infos?

Well my dealer just confirmed to me last week that mine (2013 991s with glass sunroof) came off the production line on 22 June and is now waiting for shipment date so I guess the 6 weeks delay is applicable to only to selective models?

..the ones which are already produced i can not really judge, fact is that some are held back which are already built.... i do not believe it only concerns selective models, based on the information i gathered.... mine has status fixed and is ready for production, they now offered me to change the option back to the normal roof........
