LOL I started to configure a 992 T4S and found that getting similar options as my C2S is going to cost a lot. Interesting find is you need to go with S for the MT and the cost is no different as PDK used to be a $4k option.

Thank you! (Been on the hunt for 991.1 w/ SC and I'm number two in line behind another person on another vehicle elsewhere) Enjoy the 992!

That's a solid car - I pampered it. Never tracked or hit. They are CPO'ing it, too. P-Zeros have 800 miles on them. Has 50th Anniversary Grilles in the front (couldn't find my stockers to replace them with) and aftermarket metal oil cannister instead of that crappy plastic one that Porsche uses. Silver Hood emblem, Front Sport Spoiler painted body color, and PORSCHE emblem on the back is body-colored. New Top on it 2 1/2 years ago and door panels both replaced about 18 months ago. Always garaged, never driven in salt or brine. I have the Tubi Exhaust that was on it for sale as well as the HRE wheels I ran on it for all the time I owned it. Happy to answer any questions on it if you're interested.

But with the manual you get Sports Chrono included at no cost which is a $2800 option on PDKs. So it's kind of $3K cheaper unless you didn't want SC.

What was it that convinced you to pony up?

Add to that the PDK is a $4k option

Long thread on it here - if you haven't tried a 992, take one out.

Got it, thought he was referring to your 991.

With the 992, the PDK and Manual both have the same base price. There is no longer a PDK "Option" that you pay for like previous generations. I was just pointing out that you do get SC for free when you get a manual (a lot of people complain they are the same price PDK/Manual but don't realize that SC is included at no cost with the Manual)

Why and how did you get the top replaced and what was the cost -- mine has major creases ?

Agree, I was configuring a 992 Targa yesterday and noticed that plus you can only add the MT if you order the S model.

Correct. And the Sport Chrono is included with the manual transmission order. It's quite a nice gearbox, very light, and the clutch is about half of what it is in a 991 as well.

I will wait before taking a 992 for a test drive, fairly certain mine is on “the list”.
