However, you should spring for the LWBs as they are the first application of those in a regular Carrera.
Yeah I don't know about that. I put Recaro Pole Positions in my 993 C4S. Back then I used the car as a DD. Wearing business clothes etc I'd say having shells in a car for daily use wasn't the best.
Hi all, I'm new to this thread and new to Porsche (my current car is an M4), and I'm happy to say I just landed an allocation for a 911T, due to be delivered in September. Being new to Porsche, is there really value in the 18 way seats or do the 4 way seats suffice? I test drove one with 4 way and one with 18 and I couldn't tell the difference but then again I was in the car for a short period of time. Thanks in advance for your help!
If you couldn't tell the difference then I envy you - just get the cheaper 4-ways.
To me, a correctly adjusted 18-way is far more comfortable especially with a 2 hour daily commute. The 4-way is excellent. The 18-way is better. YMMV.
Edited to say: If you have kids constantly getting in and out, then the manual sliding 4-ways may be the more suitable option.
In the UK, mine also came with Pirelli P Zeroes. I think it's luck of the draw as to which tyres Porsche have in stock at the factory when your car is built...
Yes, but I was on the Suncoast site last night trying to find the parts that would work on a T and read that the S brakes are for wide body cars only. I could be mistaken.
Surely the Carrera S comes in 'narrow body' for the C2S and still has the S brakes with the red calipers?
The 4 ways are more comfortable due to more padding and fewer motors. They are also lighter. However, you should spring for the LWBs as they are the first application of those in a regular Carrera.
Everybody's anatomy is different, so go with what's most comfortable to you. DO NOT get the LWB's without trying them first, especially if you plan to daily the car. I sat in a Boxster Spyder with them and I'm 5'10" & only 128lbs, but they would be intolerable for me for anything other than dedicated track driving.
The 18 ways were nice but the 4 ways were good enough for me that the 18 ways weren't worth the premium.
I have no thin skin here and would ask the group their opinion on a T configured, guards, PCCB, yellow T package with leather. Other obvious choice red T package but with PCCB.
I'd go red interior package and black gauges. The gauge color thing is a bit much. And I don't think the yellow links to the PCCB very well. I've seen lots of Guards red cars with black interiors and yellow calipers. Looks fine.
