Default 2018 C2S build question

Hey guys,
New member and first time Porsche owner to be. I placed a deposit down on this build after several weeks of researching all the options. This will be DD without tracking but driving can be spirited at times. I'm not big into music and don't like the sunroof look.
What do you think? I went back and forth on PDCC but decided against it to stay within budget. I have about two weeks before lock date. Thanks!!

Looks really great. Nice touches. Personally I would go MT but it's obviously a personal preference. I don't much care for PDK on the street (great for track but not as interesting or engaging on the street).

I believe good choice re PCCBs. Today I drove a C2S at the PEC in ATL. I specifically requested and drove one with PCCBs. I couldn't tell the difference and my instructor, who works for Porsche, basically agreed for street driving.

Enjoy your new ride!

Welcome! Build looks just fine. Agree on the PDCC. If it were me I'd spice it up with some red seat belts. Should not break the bank.

I personally really like the MF steering wheel and would go for that for "only " 120$ more over the GT wheel (it's only 15mm larger). Also, if scraping the front end would bother you, might want to forego the PASM Sport or get FAL.

Standard interior is kind of uncommon on otherwise well-optioned car. When I ordered my first P-car I went with a standard interior, because I was paring the options to the bone, but my wife went with a leather interior on her Cayman S. Comparing the two after the cars arrived made me regret I hadn't gotten leather.

I've heard rather negative things about the voice control system. You should ask to test out a car that has it to see how workable it actually is.
