Question Advices for Turbo S configuration

Hello everybody, this is my very first post. After being 11 months on the waiting list for a Turbo S allocation I got the desired call from my SA couple of weeks ago. It will be the first Porsche that I buy brand new and I´m looking for some advices, this is my code: PPKG3CX8

I am especially looking for your advice on matching ext/int colors. Usually the exterior color is chosen first and the interior simply depends on it, but this time it is the opposite. Since the heritage cognac interior appeared on the MY23 configurator I fell in love with it so its a must for me. I think that Aventurine Green goes very well with the cognac interior but green is not my color so I am open to receive recommendations

Thanks in advance

Looks like a beautiful build. My understanding is the sport package in high gloss black was put on order block. Is it now being accepted? I would suggest the burmeister sound system. I absolutely love it and very happy that I got it.

I have same interior and my exterior color is GT silver .But white is always good. I did not chose it because my current 992 is white
Chalk also will look great
I honestly don't think these cars need FAL

Thanks for your response. I have not heard that the sport package was unavailable at this moment, will ask that to my SA. Thanks also for the Burmester recomendation, it's something I was hesitant about because I didn't know if it was worth it, but I’m considering it.

Yours sounds like a nice combination, I was considering it but sincerely doubted about how well cognac would combine with the silver GT.
I also was thinking about Gentian Blue but concluded that it doesn’t harmonize either with the cognac.
When is your delivery expected? It would be nice to see some photos.

Love it too! In my case that was the only positive thing to have received a MY23 allocation instead of a MY22. The wait was worth it.

I think heritage interior will well go with white, silver, red, green, black. It's a pretty versatile interior color.

Color is so subjective. I suggest you go to the dealer and look at all the combos for yourself. There are plenty of cars here configured that I would throw up on while others think it is greatest looking car ever.

Your taste, your choice. Enjoy the ride.

Nice! My preference would be for the Aventurine Green, but that's entirely subjective on my part.
.
One thing I would add is what Porsche calls the "Smoking Package". It's a no-cost option. Even if you don't smoke, it makes for an excellent container for whatever and/or minor trash items.

Thanks for your response, although I also think cognac is a versatile color there are some combinations that don’t completely convince me, thanks for confirming that white makes a good match

Thanks for your advice, I already went to the dealership, however, since the heritage interior is new they still didn’t have any samples of it. However I agree with you that colors are such a subjective thing.

Thanks for the tip, since I don't smoke, I hadn't paid attention to that option. I already checked my country’s configurator and it costs around 70 dollars, do you consider that it is still worth it for that cost?

What country charges $70?
Also a non-smoker and it was a NC option when I ordered it with my car.
Not worth $70 IMO.
