I like.
Probably a year or longer before we get these in NA eh?
Note the seat stripe delete. Nice.
And the manual.

Pls excuse movie controls and if already pics up, didn't see any yet in this "evolving" thread.
those have been around for a while - don't see why we'll get them now.

btw, did you notice how the transmission tunnel says "GTS" in that video.

Don't think folding buckets will be available in USA. Last time, I recall them not meeting US regulations and only offered in EU. Same for Club Sport Package with roll bar. No US option to get it.

Those look like 997.2RS folding buckets (which we had in the USA). Exactly the same in fact.

Yeah, that caught my attention too. AP did look pretty beat, so they must have had some sleepless nights.

I wonder if there is CXX option to have them painted body color. I know people did this on the RS, but then again the RS is more CXX "friendly"

Or just have your shop paint them.

Thoughts?

They look like bare plastic, so they will look like hell in about 2 months.

Luckily Porsche is usually willing to let you pay to have all such plastic covered. Just not in the first versions of the builder.

I also bet that they are trivial to remove, so a body shop might do it at a reasonable price with little risk.

So here is my current configuration, will be delivered in march 2018 (I hope).

Hopefully there will be an option to delete the stripes on the seats...not sure if they go well with karmin red.

Dealer logged it in the system already, Monday I will finalize the paperwork.

Very exciting as this is my first 911 and hope it will become good friend with my 981 Spyder.

Thanks STG for this awesome thread ... I was looking at the official fotos and saw those 18 way seats with sport-tex material instead of alcantara ... interesting

Sorry, shameless plug for HFS (Hot for Sale). Will be hitting 1,000,000 views today just short of its 2 year inception. Has helped many buyers realize the 991 dream. Specializing in listing pre-owned 991.1 Carrera S/4S/GTS variants for sale. Most at Porsche dealers. This is purely voluntary enthusiast contributed with the only mission being to help potential buyers.

Great cars at great prices in the pre-owned $70K-$100K range at $30K-$50K+ off MSRP with mileage under 15K and CPO.
