Default need help on ordering

Good Day everyone..

Got lost in the configurator as i keept playing with it day and night...
i need help to make my 991 carrera as comfortable as it can be, as this will be my daily driver for 150 miles a day ( 95% highway driving)

so here are few points that need you input..

1/ i like the looks of 20" wheel but are they really stiff and harsh vs 19's..
2/ pasm vs non pasm
3/sport plus seats vs regular seats..

i've decided to go with anthratic brown ,, but cant decide which interior to select,, any suggestions?

the order will lock up in 8 days, appreciate your prompt help.

thanks everyone...

I went antracite beige- the beige dash eally reflects quite a bit - if the two tone has a black dash that would be better!

PASM why?
the 20s are stiff but your thinking pasm - would you run it soft? in sport that is like lithotripsy
regular seats work fine
id put the money on an s

20min wheels are not at all harsh, 19s will be softer for sure. pasm will help keepo the ride supple sport plus seats are the best- for sure more comfortable that ne standard seats - which are not bad. best to sit in both and see what fits you best

i suggest darker rather than lighter interior as it will not show dirt as much

I am on my second base car, both w/o PASM. First one had 19"s and the second runs on 20"s I dont think there is a difference in ride quality between the two.
I would order PASM just for the 10mm lower ride height, not for comfort because again, it would be hard to notice a difference.

I love Anthracite Brown, how about Luxor beige interior with deviating black dash and carpet.

19" will be more comfortable and last longer with less expensive replacement costs with the amount of miles you drive... go witht he 19" for sure.


2/ pasm vs non pasm
Without PASM you are in a standard suspension car. with PASM the comfort setting is a little more comfortable then without PASM, especially on the highway and the sport setting is stiffer than without PASM. The most comfortable ride you can achieve is with
19" and PASM


3/sport plus seats vs regular seats.
The Sport Seats will give you more support laterally for spiritied driving. Both seats are firm to start with which is a must for longer commutes and trips.. I say go witht he comfort seat. The 4 way Lumbar and leg extensions will get the job done. Add the seat ventilation, it is fantastic.

i've decided to go with anthratic brown ,, but cant decide which interior to select,, any suggestions?

Anthracite Brown with Luxor beige is the interior with Anthracite. Take note: THe beige interior will show a bit more wear than a black interior over time. Also dark blue jeans will leak dye into the beige interior over time. If you wear alot of jeans I would suggest a black interior..


I have been with a Porsche quite a while and this wha I would suggest to my clients.

the order will lock up in 8 days, appreciate your prompt help.

thanks everyone...
