Part of me thinks I should only add options that improve performance, but the creature comforts are awfully nice. More easily criticized in a GT3 order, I think. I'd add PCCB's but I'm at my threshold of financial pain at $150k!

Dude, every time I look at your signature, I'm jealous that you have a CSL. It's a car high up on my bucket list! Although they're really expensive, I think they're way undervalued compared to RS Carreras.

Fellow buyers - your dealer should be willing to negotiate - mine did - as I understand it, your dealer by being selected by YOU has earned from PCNA an additional allocation for next year! That's huge. Another car to sell when P is talking about limiting the number of cars out there. Go get 'em.

Anything is po$$ible .......a long time customer had the std yellow PCCB calipers of his Porsche factory matched to the slightly different yellow color of his car and was charged $8000 for the " pleasure " ....and that was 10yrs ago !

I would think the order allocation has to revert to PCNA, otherwise there is zero incentive for any dealer to negotiate ...they would all simply charge a dealer mark-up to drive off the winners and sell to the highest bidder walking off the street who would not know the PCA from the PGA and could care less ......it would turn this feel good 60 th anniversary " contest " organized by one of the oldest and largest dues supported private car clubs in the world with the intention of good -will maintenance by its marque manufacturer into the opposite ...a PR nightmare for both !

Curious what you guys who have ordered (or are definitely ordering) are choosing for transmission-PDK or 7-spd?
I got the email and said yes but have heard nothing from my designated dealer-do they have all the details yet-options, pricing, production slots? Sales manager is on vacation and SA's know nothing when I called.

In my case, I had to reach out to the dealer.

I'm opting for the manual transmission. I really like the act of shifting and using the clutch. After more than three decades of (nearly) exclusively driving cars with manual transmissions, it's become for me a natural part of the driving process. Or, said differently, it's weird almost to the point of uncomfortable to not use a clutch pedal.
And if you want to get excited about a manual transmission and the GTS, check out this review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7EY...ature=youtu.be

Thanks! If you want to see what a new 993 looks like, come on over. They're called the last of the air cooled 911s but I think they should really be called the last of that analog 911s. I'm fortunate to have it.

Configured my car at the dealer this AM. Won't get a final price until PCNA goes over the build sheet...supposedly. Ordering process seems needlessly murky from the dealer's perspective, I think.
Anyway, my car is a SEP build, which means a NOV delivery. Ugh. Still very jazzed about owning this car, but really disappointed to wait SEVEN MONTHS for it.
Also, turns out my dealer is handling TWO Club Coupe orders.
