Talking I got a ticket. I am VERY HAPPY

Two days ago I stalked my dealer again for the 911 R. Was a little sad he didn't give me notice the R came out and it was sold out. He told me he had an other surprise for me.
So yesterday I signed for my 991 RS

Not bad for a second prize.

Now the spec is quite something. I kind of need your help. What's best to get? What's not? I ticked a lot of boxes so I guess I didn't miss out on something special.

Please help me and post some of the most special interior specs if you can.

I would be very thankful and reward with pics later this year

Thank you very much for your input!


Best,

H

The best RS is the one you own.

That being said...

Resale 1-3 years: get it with pccb, nav, stereo, deviated stitching, colored belts full leather

Never selling: whatever you want. It's your money.

10-20years selling: pccb, full leather, weirdest color, bucket seats, radio delete, li-ion battery.

Congrats! Since you were looking at the 911R, I assume that you're not really interested in tracking it. If you are, that may very well influence your choices.

Outstanding news. I could easily live with that scenario.

Congrats! So is this one of the speculated new allocations that are opening up?

Congrats on the car. I agree with what CJ posted on spec so nothing to add there.

I would consider UV with LO Microfiber. I went Viper Green with LO Microfiber so it doesn't look like every other 991 on the inside.

I agree. Very few takers of LO or silver microfiber option which was surprising since it maybe the ONLY option exclusive to the RS. Taste aside.

I remember when I first saw the lipstick red interior of the 997 4.0RS and laughed, well it's looking better with age because crazy. With time ugly becomes cool.

I only have information for North America however I see 108 cars with lava microfiber and 50 cars with silver microfiber. I only have 1 car with UV and lava microfiber (1 black as well). This is out of 750 cars.

21%, surely a very large majority of the LO interiors are on LO cars.

I have 8 white cars, 1 black, and 1 UV car with lava microfiber.

A silver or UV car with lava micro fiber would likely be very rare but that may not be to many peoples liking.

Painted vents slats can add to the interior details and you can order deviating colour.


Quick Reply: I got a ticket. I am VERY HAPPY
