Pre-Delivery Procedures for the Porsche 911 Carrera T<\/h3>\n

The other day, I went to complete the pre-delivery procedures for the 911 Carrera T.<\/p>\n

I thought it was still far off, but before I knew it, time had flown by.<\/p>\n

Until now, I had accompanied my husband to his Porsche pre-delivery appointments, but since I wasn\u2019t the buyer, I never really paid close attention to what documents were signed or what exactly was done. (With kids around, it\u2019s hard to just sit and watch carefully.)<\/p>\n

This time, since it\u2019s my very first Porsche, I was a bit nervous but brought two copies of my certificate of seal impression, my registered seal, and my bank seal<\/strong> and went to the Porsche Center with my family.<\/p>\n

At the dealer, we spent about an hour confirming the final specs and price, stamping documents, discussing the loan payment amounts, and chatting with our contact, Mr. H.<\/p>\n

Including options, the PSMP (Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan: an all-in-one package covering statutory inspections, manufacturer inspections, and major parts replacement\/refills for 3 or 5 years from purchase), and other fees, my Carrera T came to a total of 20,583,160 yen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s\u2026 expensive.<\/p>\n

By the way, I didn\u2019t add dealer coating since I planned to have it done at a nearby Keeper Lab.<\/p>\n

Out of the roughly 20 million yen, I managed to scrape together about 4 million yen as a down payment (including the deposit), by desperately cashing out some investment trusts, haha. Even so, with a 5-year residual value loan set at 40%, the monthly payment is about 210,000 yen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wow\u2026 that\u2019s also steep.<\/p>\n

Well\u2026 I don\u2019t think the value of the Carrera T will drop to 40% of the new car price in five years<\/strong>, but buying it myself really makes me realize how much the resale value and monthly payments matter in detail.<\/p>\n

That said, once it\u2019s delivered, I hope I can forget all that and just enjoy driving it to the fullest.<\/p>\n

Carrera T Arrives at the Dealer!<\/h3>\n

After returning from the dealer, I first obtained the garage certificate, handed it to Mr. H, transferred the down payment, and smoothly completed the procedures.<\/p>\n

The pickup date for my Swift was also set (just before the Carrera T delivery), and preparations steadily progressed. I was nervously thinking, \u201cIt\u2019s finally happening!<\/strong>\u201d when Mr. H contacted me to say the Carrera T had safely arrived at the dealer.<\/p>\n

He also sent lots of photos and videos, but honestly, at first, I couldn\u2019t quite believe it was my own 911. It felt like someone else\u2019s car, and I just thought, \u201cWow\u2026 that\u2019s cool\u2026<\/strong>\u201d But after looking at it for a while, I gradually started to feel, \u201cAh, this is my 911.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n

Strangely enough, the Carrera T suddenly seemed incredibly cool\u2014like, insanely cool\u2014and since then, whenever I have free time, I\u2019ve been grinning while looking at the photos and videos (laughs).<\/p>\n
