Default Must have options on a base 991?

I found an allocation for a base 991 and I am thinking about the following options:

base 991
PDK
14 way seats
Premium pkg
Sport Design Mirrors
Body color sun roof
911 on bumper
smoker’s package
20 inch Carerra Sport wheels
GT Silver

Am I missing any ‘must have’ options?

For me, ventilated seats. Entry and drive is standard on many other cars; premium package plus gets those two plus LED headlights. But pricey.
Have you tried the 18 ways?
Also probably lane change assist. Something else that’s now standard on many cars costing less than Porsche options for many builds.
I would not pay extra for wheels or SD mirrors, but that’s me. You can change wheels later; mirrors probably tougher.
I’ve had both types and prefer the glass sunroof (but neither opens far enough for my tastes).
Have fun...

Thanks Keadog. Too much sun damage in the past for a glass roof. I won’t Even open the sun roof...just getting it to ease resale. Wheels and mirrors Set the car off for me. All the other things are nice and I have them in my daily...this is a weekend summer car for the most part, so keeping the costs down a little.

All personal preference. You'll get as many opinions as you do responses. For example - we can fill 30 pages debating the merit of PDK - then after 30 pages we can begin the SC debate and rev matching once we conclude a manual if for weeners and PDK is for vaginas. I love my PDK.

We clearly are from different planets. None of those options are "must have" for me.

Manual
PSE
Sport Chrono
Full leather

....are starters.

after that....
Heated seats, Heated MF Wheel, ventilated seats, Bose, Glass sunroof......and many more.

For PDK >>> Sport Chrono is must have and add on PSE while at it. They have a bundled sport package right?

Since you're getting the sunroof for the next owner, what other options does he want?
