Default GTS build

Ouf.....
C$106k for a CGTS.....aaaaarrrrrhhhhhhh
Im not sure how to post it here. Im not all out, but almost.
Carmine ext, black wheels, carmine special interior, pdk, ptv, bose pack, few other convinient options. BOOM.

Carmine is not cheap, but its the best porsche red imo. I actually think its not that expensive as i was thinking of doing PTS carmine for cayman, after i saw it on this forum on a 991S, until it became a cheap $2000 option!!! Gts needs the special interior, imo! Where could i cut? Do i go for 987 spyder/r for $35k less?

Pls post your build/delivery here!

drop pdk, ptv.

change black wheel to satin which is cheaper and nicer. black rims are kinda played out.

Yes. Ditto. Drop PDK. Satin wheels. Add PCCB. Oops. Wrong direction!

^ah.....good one. I was indeed thinking of dropping pdk to make it a good/fun ride.
True that black rims are getting a bit played out. Thanks!

Still 100k. Is that the new normal price for this car? I wasnt in the market for spyder/r but im not sure they were so expensive AND, most importantly, why theres such a markeup for the 981 models? More luxurious?
