$180k Targa GTS? Now that is a pricey build...nice call on the chalk stitching that should look great!

Congrats! I'm sure it's a beautiful build when delivered. At that price after tax, I personally would consider a Turbo which has many of the options you listed included.

I know the price point got up there but my reasoning was that the only thing dumber than spending 180 on a targa was spending 170 and then always thinking that you should have spent the other 10 for it to be exactly as you want.

You could always make more money, but chalk stiching must be in very limited supply based on the cost

Congratulations! Good thinking on getting what you want. Especially is your buying and going to keep it a while.

Great Build. Will look fantastic. If there is one model to really add on lots of options I think Targa 4 GTS is the one to do it on.

It will look amazing - the beauty of Porsche is you can option your vehicle to your exact spec. It makes every drive special

Power steering plus is really nice. I did not order my car, it came with it and I really like it.
