Thanks SanibelSpeed,

I'm like a kid with a new toy (got some pictures up on 6speed also), no pun intended, (the two cars have license plates TOY (turbo) and TOYTOO (991S)). I finally may have made it to the 21st century, a full 86.5 years before the century ends! Never made it technically to the 20th Century as far as personal computers went.

I have a C2S and the multifunction steering wheel, sport chrono (if you are getting PDK - get the sport chrono - great combo), leather interior is an expensive option but it really "up scales" the interior, and I just had the factory pse installed - not sure she will use it much - but for YOU it is a must have!! I'm really liking it - sound like every Porsche should sound from the factory now...has that exotic growl...

Someone above suggested lightening up the interior. Matter of personal taste. Here are some thoughts on contrasting color schemes: Here are some thoughts on colors: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/7668...-recap.html#13

I drove the Nurburgring after I dropped my girlfriend off in Frankfurt Was awesome. Highly recommend two things: renting a car for a few laps to get the hang of it before you take your car out there; and hire someone or meet friends in parking lot to let you ride along with them or find someone with experience to ride along with you. A little coaching up front goes a long way to extra safety, fun and getting your car home in one piece.

And no SportDesign... Not on a cab. (Just my opinion)

Things you may consider:
- Power Steering Plus if she likes light steering while parking
- Two-tone interior (like Agate grey/Pebble or black/platinum grey) looks amazing in a cab IMO, especially with darker exterior colors. And you get some free deviated stitching.

Totally agree with Suzy991 here.

Your 991 Cab is the most beautiful Porsche I have seen to date. It makes me sorry for my poor choice.
