Very nice.

The only change I'd recommend is add Sport Exhaust and drop the interior wood.

Good job on the 7-speed manual.

That'll be an interesting one to see when it gets here…. in six long months! Will you be able to resist flying to Stuttgart for a peek in July?

I know a lot of you like the sport exhaust but after driving a demo with it I was not too impressed. It sounded a little whimpy to me plus I am not sure about the longevity of the electronic controls. I am used to my 993 with aftermarket Fabspeed exhaust and how it roars compared to the 991 with PSE. At some point I will likely add an aftermarket exhaust if I want more sound. The new 991 is my wife's car anyway hence the interior wood. She demanded a manual tranny!
I was able to convince her to get the "s" version with a few upgrades like the sport suspension and techno wheels. Cannot Wait!

Nice build! Curious whether you were able to see any pics of the mahogony accents with the red/ black interior (which I think is stunning). Not sure how the wood will look with that interior. I could see it much more with espresso/ cognac. Either way, the car will be fabulous!

The mohogany has a lot of red tones in it so based on the configurator image (although a fake image) it matched well. We also looked online for real images of red interior with wood and after seeing the wood on another car we went for it. We have always had wood in our cars when available. We also have a classic all teak sailboat with a varnished (bright) hull!

I love the sport techno wheels.
With a MT, I prefer the convenience of the MFSW, but do think the sport design looks nicer.
Enjoy the loooong wait!

imHo...great build but the interior combo is not good

i wouldn't be looking to pick up the garnet tone from the mahogany. its going to have WAY too much stuff going on...black and red leather, deviated red stitch on certain areas, white gauge faces, a combination of painted silver and mahogany...

i would refocus and simplify. have you used the 3d visualizer?

Yes we did use the visualizer. Thank you for your opinions !
Sticking with the wood. My 993 has wood, so did my 911s.
