Add:

I'd also strongly consider going standard black v. jet black metallic - I've not been as impressed with the depth on JBM cars (which is why a lot of people love black cars).

Hope that helps! Good luck!
I think the Alcantara Shifter (and steering wheel) is mandatory when you add bucket seats.

Yeah, I think you are right. Why...oh, why.

I know... it just adds another $900 more or so artificially to the price of the bucket seats.

Oh yeah. How odd.

coolfido, spending that kind of money on a T, had you considered a new 991.2 GTS...? (In the UK, you'd be at GTS money. Not sure how the prices compare in the US.)

Good advice if you go with the T actually, I would do just about the same except add LEDs as well since I like the look.

My dealer doesn't have any GTS allocations at the moment.

I put a deposit down on the T today.. will have a month until the build locks.

Going to attempt to shed 4K of the my build.
Leaning toward sunroof delete and keyless entry.

My understanding is that there is zero GTS allocation until the end of the year. My dealer says that the US Dealers got totally screwed this summer.

I've had keyless entry in all my cars for at least the last 10 years (11 vehicles) and my T is the first one that I am ordering WITHOUT it. Why? Because I think in this vehicle putting the key in, will be "part of the experience" of what the T is supposed to be.

I have entry and drive on my .2 C4 (didn't spec this car) and every time I get in to drive, I miss physically putting the key in the ignition to turn the car on. It is nice to open the frunk with just the palm of your hand though.

You know you can always remove the dummy key and still use the Entry part of Entry and Drive for the rest...

Easiest way to remove the dummy key is to open the car, leave the key inside the house, then turn the dummy key on, then off, then on , then off and remove.
