Welcome and congratulations on the spec and order!
Did the dealer mention any delays due to the glass sunroof? I think glass sunroof production may be back to normal at Porsche.

Thanks.

He did... and that was why when I asked to see one in person, he said the dealership did not order any due to the delay. But, it's back to normal schedule now, supposedly. So, I am rolling the dice on this one, it should be nice, the white and black contrast - I'm just afraid of the "noice" issue from the early batch I've heard.

It'll be a fine car! Btw, the waiting is part of the experience and makes the delivery day even more special.

You will love the car, the wait is painful but will bring a smile to your face on delivery. I have waited for my car since April. Mine was a June build and now is at the port. The glass sunroof was the delay. The next five to ten days will be awful.

Sweet config,....add one thing, steering column in leather. It's black plastic and sticks out big time on a red interior. Look at it on the 3D configurator. Not absolutely necessary, but sure does make a difference.

C63 is a fine car,....what are some of the reasons your making the swap?

12/11 delivery or build completion date?

Black lights look very nice on white and the glass sunroof. One comment though is to delete model designation in rear given you got those on the doors...lovely spec overall! Congrats!!

Curious to know the comparison in terms of acceleration between your C63 vs. the Carrera S....when you test drove it of course...
