Default Speccing a 2024 Turbo S

I received an allocation for a 992.1 Turbo S and have been pouring over the configurator, and came up with this spec: PRPXPM37.
I would have preferred Shark Blue but that apparently is not an option at this time. I hope before my order locks on the 27th of May it will reappear on the configurator. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance…….

I love your build. My TT is building currently - PR6XKA68. Many similarities and many differences. Looks great.

GT Metallic Silver is a great color, I had that on a previous 991.2 911. When I looked at your configuration I saw “power folding mirrors” and thought I missed that option…….I guess it’s included.
When does your TT arrive?

End of May arrival.

Unfortunately the gloss and painted packages (3k) were stop sale at the time order locked. Sport design package was also stop sale but I don’t like it anyway. I would have liked to have the rear diffuser painted gloss black.

I previously had a turbo S allocation. But a turbo for 30K less was what I always wanted. I won’t have the bragging rights😉

Black brake calipers
Delete red seat belts - maybe go chalk ?
Sport suspension!! It is a must-have.
Black exhaust pipes to match your gloss black.

Love the red. I'd personally change:
- drop red seat belts, black would contrast just fine
- black breaks,
- exclusive wheels with black accents
- exclusive tailights
- sun visors in leather
- maybe black model designation and porsche written on the back ( given you have side vents, mirror bases, window trim in black).

I'd not take SPASM makes the ride much stiffer

End of May is right around the corner. I am looking at the end of July/beginning of August arrival, Turbo or Turbo S both are crazy fast, enjoy!

Good suggestions, and regarding the Sport suspension I already had a 3RS and 2RS so I am looking for something less harsh but beastly fast…..

Thanks though I wish I could have chosen red calipers but not an option with Porsche, though Lamborghini offers quite a few different caliper color choices.

What are you guys paying for car insurance every 6 months? I got a quote of $1,702 with 20% car replacement coverage.

All these things are so personal and just opinion. However you asked. I would delete the ext door decals. Also would do painted to match exterior intakes rather than black. Otherwise looks great.

Thanks, I am using all the feedback to make some changes/improvements to my build.

I’m also building my TT right now. The one thing I would offer up is “surround view”. Helps with parking, avoiding curbs, etc. if you don’t do a lot of urban driving/parking, it may be less relevant.

I will be adding that to my build. My wife has it on her BMW and it is quite helpful.

As an aside, have you obtained an insurance quote? I got a quote of $1,702 with 20% car replacement coverage. Reasonable or not?

Thats high. My 2023 TTS policy was $120/month. Statefarm. My gt3rs is $108/month. Cayenne is similar.
