My previous 987 Boxster had no options except Bose and the paint, and I thought it was great. I know we fuss over all the options, but honestly the base car has everything that’s really important. I like the look and feel of the leather dash, but when driving I dont really care what the interior looks like. The vinyl dash would probably need less care/maintenance too.

We're overthinking this. I present the uber-stripper, $92,360 msrp, $2110 in options: just (silver) paint, heated steering wheel, Bose, and done. Sporting NA 4.0 Porsche goodness, heated seats, Apple car play, black PDLS + 4 LED DRL lights, heated soft/warm/grippy alcantara on hands and a$$, AND POWER TOP standard. The best bang/$ in Porsche universe, including 911, in a very long time. Easy to keep clean silver -- just sit in it and drive your a$$ off. A timeless classic:

Great build and excellent value!
For me though, I've had 4 Porsches and they've all been someone elses creation. This is my 1 and only new Porsche, so I'll add a few bits and pieces as it will likely be the last ICE / Manual car I'll buy so I'm in it for the long haul! My final price when it was locked in last week came in at $110k Canadian which is like what $35 American? ;-)

My choice between Boxster GTS 4.0 and Spyder comes down to a choice between practicality/convenience and beauty + GT3 suspension. A BLACK Spyder pushes the "suffer for beauty" theme to its extreme and logical conclusion. I know it's a Spyder in a GTS 4.0 thread but this combo to me is by far the most beautiful 718 4.0 so had to share -- pure sex:

Didn’t want to start a tread for this, but this is the press package for the GTS. For those waiting, there are some interesting tidbits.... thanks to the other forum member who found this for the GT4 in the other thread. If you drill back on these links you can find the GT4 / Spyder info as well.

Z06jerry...very similar to my build, but I kept the red calipers and have added red seat belts and gauges. I went back and forth between silver and white combos, but ended up going with classic silver in the end.

The seats are non-negotiable as my wife wants them. The headrests showed no logo or emblem, so I added the crest. I think you only get GTS logo if you go all leather. If that's not the case, then I will definitely go with the GTS as standard. Cheers.
