There was initially speculation on this thread and misunderstanding based on the list of options chosen for car #1. I'll feel a little relieved when I have the final build spec and pricing confirmed for my car, but based on my experience so far I see no reason to believe that the options I've chosen won't be allowed.

Too bad about your friend's selling dealer.
My dealer e-mailed me today to let me know that two of the options I selected were rejected by PCNA - painted lower rear valence and carbon fiber manual shift ****. The others were accepted and included sport PASM, painted rockers and washer nozzles, smokers package and storage net. I wanted a pretty basic car and am happy with the build, but it would have been nice to get that lower valence painted. Cheers🍷

I think CC will definitely be worth more.

Few years ago, I tried to buy another 2006 CC to make a pair. None is listed for sale. 50 or 60 cars in the world is super rare.

10 to 20 years from now, it will be much easier for a collector to find and buy a Carrera GT, a 918, than finding any CC for sale.

Before i was directed to this thread i had never heard of rennlist and couldn't be happier to have found you all as well. Thanks!!!
Welcome and Congrats! The color is great and a power kit car is a real treat!

Being excited for this car, I was able to take a Carmine Red GTS coupe for a test drive. It was truly exhilarating. When I traded in my 2009 TT Cab this past October for the Speedster, I had a small regret. The power and fun of the car left a hole in my garage. The Speedster is a different car all in itself. The drive of the GTS brought that thrill back. I am looking forward to taking delivery of this special car.

Can any of those who have CONFIRMED orders on the Club Coupe state the options they were allowed to order? Josh's reply has been helpful and I am hoping to get more answers.
Matthew at Porsche Exclusive has not been helpful and believes only the car cover and Exclusive Stitching are available.
Thank you,

They said it had some problem with the auto dimming lights and the interior lighting included with the club coupe package... Whi knows though. I got a confirmed build from atlanta with everything else though.

Valence: Easily handled by a top body/paint shop after delivery.
Shift ****: dealer installed after delivery (or make the deal in advance for swap)

Enjoy, and congrats!

Huh - weird. I bet bun warmers can be added a-la cart.

Note the Premium Package (w/heated seats, etc.) on the window sticker of the display model I took while at the Rolex 24h race in Daytona.

Good God yes! Thanks for posting Mike. It's kind of easy to lose connection with the prize at the end of the process.

I wonder if the difference is Premium Package vs. Premium Package Plus. Or MY 2015 vs. 2016. Certainly it seems as though heated seats should be available.

My selling dealer hadn't heard anything back from PCNA as of yesterday about my configuration. Curious if anybody else included the glass sunroof in their build and, if so, if it's been accepted / priced.

I also wonder if those who do not lock until July or August for this 2016 model, for September/October builds, will have other options that those who order now do not have. It is typical that options become available later in the model year ordering schedule that were not available early on.
