Car looks lovely by the way congratulations. You running it in or did you set a new record on the A406?
🤣🤣🤣, Ran the A13, M25, Upminster for show and tell (social distanced of course) with the parents, then back home.

Wife took it out, little run around, “it’s very low, look, that fiat 500 is taller than us!” Bloody Macan drivers 🙄

SA called and said my car should be on the truck arriving to the dealer today
It will be ready for my PPF guy to pick up on Monday, and then I get it hopefully Thursday or Friday of next week.

Default Targa 4S build

New to rennlist and amazed at wealth of info here. Thanks!
Can't wait for June delivery of 992 Targa 4S
Having trouble deciding on exterior and leather combo. Torn between carrara white metallic, agate grey, or guards red. So different but all look great.
Current build candidate is: http://www.porsche-code.com/PM4UCFH5 - any recommendations?
Like the chalk leather but worried about denim transfer (I assume it happens)

Welcome, I just took delivery of my Targa last week. I think a fantastic color combo is agate gray with the bordeaux/black interior. It was my close second choice. Of course colors are very subjective and personal. Good luck. I would also strongly consider the 18 way seat, expensive but so worth it.

@jrseltzer Welcome to the forum. Nice build. In the end order what you want, in the color you want, however since you asked: Exterior in Agate grey is the way to go. White and guards red project commonality as they are part of the preferred colors of dealers' inventory. You are special ordering a car so make it look special. This is just my opinion. For interior you are correct. The lighter interior will be the subject of dye transfer. Think of Bordeaux red or other darker tone to avoid this. But then again, if you want that color, go get it. Worry about leather cleaning later, just apply a protectant/sealant product prior to extended use. There are many out in the market for DIY.
Good luck and let the waiting fun begin!

Gorgeous build except for the red seatbelts and red tachometer. I would also add the extended range fuel tank.

Agree. The red looks a little out of place to me.

Extended range tank isn’t available on AWD variants.

You are going to love love love this car, I too had a 996, Boxster and currently drive a Macan when I am forced to leave my 992 at home.

Have you considered Aventurine green which is a nice grey on dark/overcast days and a hint of green on sunny days - a really beautiful color.

I suggest reviewing the threads on the 4 way vs 18 way. 18 ways are not necessarily a necessity or even worth it choice for all people. I got the 4 ways and am very happy with them. Yes the 18 ways are a little nicer but not over $3K nicer but again it depends on your size, your needs for tilting, lumbar support, adjustable bolstering and thigh support and memory positions

My car is about to be produced. I'm waiting on a March delivery. How realistic is the timing for transport, shipping, and delivery on trackyourdream? The dates seem off at the moment, but it could just be a system bug.
