I think you need to get FAL. You will need it and people who buy in the secondary market will want that option.

I would reconsider the colored interior trim pieces in yellow. Look at a couple real world examples. It's a little much for me but obviously a personal choice. The configurator doesn't show what it looks like.
I certainly get that you're excited and want to comment on every new GT thread, comment and response.
But....I'd take your feedback with a grain of salt since:

1) You're new to GT cars...NEVER owned one previously, right?
2) You've not likely pushed a GT car to any real extent with and w/out PCCBs to back your claim of brake dust only benefit
3) You've not likely experienced a GT car with and w/out FAL to know when it's req'd or not, let alone other downsides of weight and more stuff that may/will likely need repair
4) And just for the record, yellow PCCBs w/ Chalk is truly amazing in person (purely subjective on my part as i've owned/spec'd two Chalk 911s)

You come off as if you've owned GT cars for years...but in reality, you're new to this GT world right?!

1) You're new to GT cars...NEVER owned one previously, right? Correct.....but it's worse than that.....I've never even driven one. We all have to start some where though right?
2) You've not likely pushed a GT car to any real extent with and w/out PCCBs to back your claim of brake dust only benefit. I never claimed that that was the only benefit of PCCBs.
3) You've not likely experienced a GT car with and w/out FAL to know when it's req'd or not, let alone other downsides of weight and more stuff that may/will likely need repair. Don't need to. I scrape my 991.2 on minor bumps. A GT car has a lower approach angle by far. This is a fact and few will disagree with me that a FAL is needed for most of us. It's 16 lbs if I recall and the weight is likely not even noticeable even by the most capable drivers which almost none of us are.
4) And just for the record, yellow PCCBs w/ Chalk is truly amazing in person (purely subjective on my part as i've owned/spec'd two Chalk 911s). Great. You have an opinion like I do. Are either of us wrong? I don't like yellow calipers except with a yellow car.

You come off as if you've owned GT cars for years...but in reality, you're new to this GT world right? ! I wont comment on how you come off because I am gentleman.
The individual was asking about aesthetics and opinions. I gave them - that's what this thread is about. What did you offer that was constructive?

PS. I see you are a nuke in ATL. Been a while since I was at INPO.

Very nice, I’m between CUP GTSilver and Agate.
I’m sure I’ll play with the configurator some more, it’s more fun than to actually order the car, so probably that’s all it will be; Playing with the configurator until the RS arrives and we can play with that 🤣

^ This is nearly my EXACT configuration! I added deviated stitching in racing yellow and mine is a manual and without the shark blue headlight right.

Nice, I thought the Yellow would be too much for me, so i kept it deviated GT silver. Did you do the Satin Dark Silver Wheels too?

No mine are the satin black wheels. I had the similar satin platinum wheels on my sapphire blue 2015 991.1 GT3 and found them to always look a bit "brake dusted" even when they were clean. I like silver wheels but thought all the black bits on the 992 go best with the satin black wheels. I had the satin black wheels on my 2018 991.2 GT3 and liked them. They never photographed wheel and always seemed darker in photographs than in real life.

Here's the racing yellow deviated stitching. Matches the gear shifter font color

Here's the build that I can't seem to get out of my mind as the one I will "let" lock http://www.porsche-code.com/PNDS9TT8



Big fan of the GT Silver interior with orange. Reminds me of this HERMES bike I almost bought as wall art:


But the one I know is more practical (also 992 GT3 Cup car!) and timeless http://www.porsche-code.com/PN71GMK0

yea I saw tons of photos. Nothing wrong with the color, just did not get me pumped. Used the money towards other things more exciting to me.
