This is the porsche code I have created - PJKNG4C6
Few questions
1. Is leather interior worth it? My friend told me that it's totally worth it but some guys tell me that it's not
2. Auto Dimming mirror - worth it? Is it an unnecessary dead weight to the car
3. Fire Extinguisher - What do you guys think about this?
Let me know what you guys think.

I like the Fire Extinguisher, it compliments the spirit of being a 'GT carr' of the GT3 in my opinion.
I do not think the dimming mirror is needed
I like at least the front half of the dash with leather, to break up the 'rubbery' look of no leather.
To each his/her own though.
Best Regards,
Dave

1. Is leather interior worth it? My friend told me that it's totally worth it but some guys tell me that it's not
yes worth it. Have it on my .1 GT3 and love it. Test drive other 911's before buying, one that didn't have it, and it felt cheap without it.
2. Auto Dimming mirror - worth it? Is it an unnecessary dead weight to the car
i have it on my GT3 and opted not to get on my GT4. I didn't really miss it on GT4; the non-dimming mirror is less bulky and has the little switch on bottom to toggle into dimmed mode when someone behind you at night with brights. However, note that the dimming mirror option is also what gives you the auto rain sensor intermittent wipers, which I did miss more. So I'd have the auto dimming mirror option next time.
3. Fire Extinguisher - What do you guys think about this?
didnt open your build to see rest, but if you're getting LWBs, then it compliments the look. If getting sofas, seems a little silly looking to me. If you ever have a fire, I don't think you'll be worried about "better non corrosive options"; it'd be nice to have regardless. But in case of fire, just get the hell out of the car. Your health and safety is more important than wasting critical seconds trying to get hold of the extinguisher to put it out to save damage to car. So to me, only real benefit of it is if you're pinned inside the car and there is a fire. Or if you need to use it for fire nearby
Let me know what you guys think.

I agree. Honestly, fire extinguisher is to complete "track rat" look on GT3. Hopefully I won't have to use it. In fact, hopefully I get an allocation in the first place.

Leather, YES. As others have stated, a $150,000 car and cheap out on the interior?
Auto dimming, NO unnecessary.
Fire extinguisher, NO Never understood this option. As far as I am concerned, if my car states on fire I am out of there as far away as I can.

I'm the opposite. I decked out my GT3 RS with leather because I was so excited. I also have a new C2S with no leather, just a standard interior and honestly I don't notice the difference, maybe sometimes but I think its like being an audiophile some people are just more attune to it.
In retrospect I would have gone no leather on my RS, its a track car..
I do buy all the functional stuff and auto dimming is one of them.

Leather interior looks better and I read at least one thread where there was a claim that it was lighter in weight...didn't really see hard data to prove that though
Auto dimming is kind of a preference thing but as stated above that's the option if you want the wipers to be auto-sensing...living in the PNW I consider that capability pretty much mandatory but if you never see rain or don't drive the car in the rain anyway...
I wish we could get the clubsport option here in the US. That appears to come with a better extinguisher and mounting location but I have the factory extinguisher on my turbo and my GT4 and it's on the build for the .2 GT3 that should be coming my way. It's a cheap way to get an extinguisher in the car that meets factory spec for capability and mounting.

Did not have leather in my 15 but am adding to the 18. Agree with what others have said that paying $150k+ for a car it should have it. There a few schools of thought though. If you track a lot and like sparser environments then skip it, but if you don't track and want to dress it up, I'd get leather.
My 15 did not have dimming mirrors that also come with auto wipers. While I rarely drive my car at night the auto dim wasn't huge but I do like auto wipers ( go figure). Again a $150k should already have both.
Have the FE in my 15 but skipped it in my 18. As others have said it is not the greatest and better in after market. Plus, and this is going to sound weird, it kind of freaks other people when the get into the car.

What are thoughts on the following?
1. Bose Stereo System - I thought it would be a nice add-on OR should I reserve good audio system for DD?
2. Brushed Aluminum Interior Package in Anthracite i.c.w. Leather Interior - Best $0 option?
3. Extended Range Fuel Tank - Heard this is a must. (Wasn't this used to be a $0 option?)
4. Fuel Cap in aluminum - again, another "poser" add-on. Is it really worth it?

991.1 3 no leather. GT4 has leather. Would definitely do it if I get allocation
Dimming. If you drive a lot at night probably worth it. I will get it if I order
Fire 🔥 extinguisher I would skip. I use the car for some road trips and takes up floor space wife needs. If you like the "race car " look do it. I won't
Plastic gas cap is better looking than stock but how off do people look at your gas cap. I will probably order again though
Bigger tank I did not have on my 3 but I would get just for extra range. Never missed it but does give a little extra piece of mind and range at track
Stereo I would save for DD
Anthracite I could take or leave. Looks nice but I am going CF if given the choice
One thing you did not mention if you do leather make sure you do around steering wheel especially with any deviated stitching

Extended fuel tang a must unless you like stopping at gas stations.
Aluminum fuel cap is out of place on the car. Though its for track it's more for DD.
