Ferrari pricing goes astronomical if you go through their Tailor Made program. If you just spec a car at the dealer, you are very limited to what you can do.

I did a Tailor Made TDF a few years back, best experience ever!

I guess the prices when compared to Ferrari get resonable. I specced my Pista and 14k for a stripe-

Ok- I get it. Targa Heritage. I guess not for me personally.

Im planning that for my next build. Did you do Italy or New York? Trying to see if I need to go to Italy for the full experience or if it can be done in NYC. My daughter is heading to NYU in the fall so lots of NY trips planned.

I did it twice, both at the factory. Highly recommend it doing it at the factory design building.

If the 992 Touring Heritage will sport a ducktail, I'm all IN.
As for the 992 Targa Heritage, I'll pay more for the non-Heritage version just not to have meatballs on the side.

It's much more limited car than Speedster because they will make only 992 pieces of Heritage Targa.
That's the point !

Agreed the decal and the front swoopy paint are not my cup of tea either BUT that is where an informed SA can guide you in spec'ing it out

Roger Jobs ordered his Speedster with Heritage Package but with "Meatball delete and front white delete"
He gets a single color paint job and all the Heritage options inside - Bazinga!

The Speedster- limited car- limited run but a Heritage Targa???? at a 45k premium? What am I missing here.

Porsche has telegraphed that there will be more “Heritage” editions throughout the 992 generation - another way to segment customers and make money off of them.

This morning in Atlanta, a buddy of mine saw a guards red Carrera in the “official” Coca Cola livery that Porsche used at Petit Le Mans last year; some customers like the cosmetic options.
