Out of those 1000+ produced, only about 100 landed in Canada. I rarely see any T's, near the most populated city in the Country, and when you start looking at cars with LWB, 7mt those numbers dwindle rapidly.
Love my buckets. It’s a defining characteristic of the car IMHO. I would never change them. I once heard “about 173” quoted as the number of 991.2 Carrera T’s with LWBS. I don’t have an official source though.
I do regret not checking the PCCB box when I ordered my T. I did make up for it with a Brembo BBK though..... No RAS, no FAL, pure T.
not sure what “pure T” really is but it’s good to know there are a few different flavors. Back then the “performance” items that weren’t available on other Carreras were PCCB, RAS, FAL and LWBS. Me, I prefer slick roof, PCCB, RAS, FAL, LWBS, slick top, MT and LED headlights, but to each their own.

You know, some days I regret not getting the LED's too. They do look cooler than the regular headlights.
I believe a 2019 Carrera T with LWBS, PCCBs, RAS, and a 7MT is the 'ultimate' Carrera T. Miami Blue is the cherry on top.
Does anyone have one?
I have Miami Blue slick top, manual, LWBS and full leather. (1 of 3 this way).
I track the car, so instead of PCCB I went with an AP Racing upgrade.
I don't believe RAS should be part of the ultimate build. Adds weight and REMOVES driver involvement. IMO, the T should be a baby S/T, not a baby GT3. The former was not offered with RAS but the latter was. I follow the same thought process for my personal car as Andreas Preuninger.

Not sure we can put FAL in the performance group. To the contrary, adds weights and does nothing more than protect an easily replaced, disposable piece of plastic. Most over rated option in the catalog, IMO.

like I said…it was listed in the “performance” part of the configurator. Obviously does not add performance just where it was in the configurator. It adds weight but has been great for entry/exit of steep driveways and parking lots here. Foolishly my lower lip is painted so it’s a bit more expensive to replace. I don’t think there is an ultimate build. RAS can always be removed and possibly turned off using Thinkdiag or PIWIS so if you find one with it, it would not scare me away.
I ordered w/ FAL and it helps out every day - makes getting up my steep driveway possible and also navigating some a fair amount of parking lot entrances around here. Not overrated for me anyways but actually a necessity. There's times where approaching at an angle isn't an option, and not hearing your front end scrape across the ground is worth it.
Plus my "summer" splitter is painted
Since I"m here - the options I wish I had ordered would be Miami Blue and PCCB's - funding wasn't right at the time... but it is what it is! Still love the car.
