Default 991.1 and 991.2 "standard options differences"

when buying the 991.2 i noticed a lot of "options" have become standard with the new facelift.. maybe i'm missing a few and their site sure does not do a good job explaining the changes as they were mostly "new" to me

PASM is standard (but i dont see the 10mm lower sport pasm (with better front lip) offered on the BASE
parking sensors+camera is standard
the wheel options seemed cheaper (i wanna say the stocks became the nicer ones available?)
XM standard


is there anything else i am forgetting?

nice to see they are making improvements, without raising the base msrp much at all.

Porsche NEVER gives you more for less $$$. They find ways to cut corners to maintain margins while always increasing prices.

One person's cutting corners is another's innovating and becoming more efficient.

The turbo (TT) now gets LEDs and SC included in the MSRP and the wheels are the same width for the TT and TTS instead of half an inch narrower on the TT.

I never knew that about the wheels. So does that mean the identical-looking 5 bolt wheels differ by 0.5 inch as between the 991.1 and 991.2?

Voice command is a zero cost option (like Smoking Package). You won't get it unless it is selected as an option on the order.

What is the name of the option? I'm not seeing it in the configurator. It's my understanding that voice control comes is standard with the new PCM on all 911s, even the C2 base.
