OMG Noooooo....

Hi everyone..

Thank you for all the knowledge and information you have imparted on here

After browsing this forum for the last few months and playing on the car configurator I have finally come up with a car I want and can just about afford.

I just booked my build slot today and am expecting the car some time in mid August.

The more info I get the more I am confused.
What do I need on my car for me ? For resale ? For fun...?

I want to keep the car for at least 3 years and plan to tour and track day with it.

I know most of the extras are subject to an individuals needs and desires but am I missing anything important on my build? Am I wasting my time with anything?

Please let me know what you think... Many thanks..

OMG Nooooo ...... it looks like I have gone mad this list is so long and so so expensive....

Nice. Add Burmester/PCCB and X-51. What's another 30K or so amongst friends!

Congrats, and great build.

Just one thought. Personally, I'm not a big fan of clear tail lights, esp. for white cars (black is ok).

OMG Noooooo....

I chose the clear lights when the car was going to be rhodium, I thought they went so well with that colour. But have stuck with them now I have changed to metallic white.

Cool. Enjoy the wait.

Nice build. .
We have a Carrara White Metallic C4S Cab "in production" now. . anticipate it will be late August arrival in the states. Will be glad to share our build with you via PM if you have any interest.
I agree with deleting the clear tail lights!
Fun to build, a pain to wait, and looking forward to drive!
Cheers

another 30k puts him into Turbo -land , just as Porsche schemes and if he spec it similarly as posted , it sinisterly pulls him into Turbo S -land ...see how that works?

OMG Noooooo....

Its the old story of car configurator and real life not really matching up. I will check out the lights again at Porsche when I visit..

Apparently I don't have to "lock" the build in for another week or two so still tinkering around with the smaller, cheaper options...

So curious to see pics of Metallic White on the 991. If it's nice, I think it might be the next color I get.

another vote for dropping the clear lights with a white car

Will get pics posted on arrival!

OMG Noooooo....

I started looking at second hand and have now ordered a new build so I have already added £30,000 to my start price... OMG F*** S***....

ipse dixit

Just get the 918 and be done with it.

Nice build! I would drop Online Services too. I ordered it and promptly deleted the app from my phone and don't use it.

Nice build. Agree with those who have recommended to drop the clear tails, but it's all a matter of personal taste and preferences. Try to find a white car (you won't find any metallic whites at the dealer, most likely) with clear tails and see what you think.
