That is going to be outstanding. Two things i didn't notice
- Does it include vented seats? They are "just right" for comfort with leather.
- The optional interior lighting package with its led "ambient" lighting spread around is also a nice and practical touch.

 

Just a couple of comments:

I don't see the sunroof mentioned. I didn't get it either, but just making sure you know it's optional.

The multifuction steering wheel has the buttons for PDK instead of the paddles that the sport design wheel has. Again, just make sure you've tried these and are ok with them. The carbon wheel is nice.

Agate/agate...and red seatbelts with nothing else red since you spec'd the ceramic brakes.

 

If you live in Daytona Beach, why do you need a heated steering wheel?

 

Chuck, both of those are included in the Premium Plus package, which he is getting.

SeaRay, you obviously aren't spec-ing this sucker on a budget! Regardless, it will be an exceptional car. You must be pretty stoked....

 

SeaRay - What model are you going with?

And just a note on black paint. The surface certainly gets the hottest of any other color, but studies show that inside temperatures don't vary a great deal by outside paint color for what that's worth. I have not performed a study, but have had white and black cars in FL and south TX. Big difference outside. Not a big one inside. But there is a real big difference on dark vs light interior. Anyway just throwing that info out for consideration.

 

The only option I'd add to that build would be some upgraded leather. Nicely spec'ed like that, it screams for at least full leather, which is a notch better than the standard leather. I believe the natural leather in espresso would go well with agate gray, though I've never looked at an example myself.

Looks like a great build! For what it's worth, I have had carbon fiber trim in three different Porsche vehicles...an early Cayenne, a 993 turbo and 997.2 C4S.
I did have a piece in the 993 that delaminated after warranty. One piece in the 997.2 cracked, and another discolored...turned cloudy. While I love the look, I decided to forego the carbon fiber on my new 991 C4S.

Good luck staying patient while waiting for delivery...it will be so awesome when it arrives!

 

How about red interior?!

 

I love the build, but would definitely look at the wheels painted body color. I wish, very very much, that mine wasn't hibernating away until April! I would post better pics of my agate grey with body colored wheels if I could! I love it, and have gotten many thumbs up driving it! Hopefully if you want it, there is time left for that in your order!

The sunroof is the best I've ever had, and the contrast in the smoked glass/agate looks awesome!

These are all very personal choices, but you would be happy driving ths car if it was purple, black, and yellow!

 

Hmmm...looks like you simply selected every option? No fun in that

 

it's been said ad nauseam for everyone's build, including my build thread back a few months ago, but remember that the carbon and aluminum interior packages do not include the center console trim, which is an additional option. please add on the cf trim center console so that it matches the cf trim you selected for the dash, doors and pdk gear shift. would have probably been an easy aftermarket fix through suncoast parts if you had missed it, but nice to catch it now. fwiw, if you get this crowd to say there isn't much else to add, you've got yourself a well optioned beast! i'm awaiting my 991 delivery, so i'm on the same path. cheers!

 

no X51

 

Thank you all for comments

It does have the glass sunroof. Toyed with idea of Cab, but old skin doc says NG, so Coupe it is. (I did have 996 and 997 Cabs. Heated wheel does wonders for arthritis in hands.

Will add the Carbon fiber to center console. Had it in my Panamera and really liked it, same as the Burmester which blows you away.

Also had white gages in the Panamera and like those. My other color option is white exterior. I wish they had the old natural leather interior but no more. This is the full leather option by the way

I do not know which color of natural leather you are referring to , however many mainstream "discontinued" colors are available through Porsche Exclusive. You just have to ask and pay a little more for the privilege.
