This is my previous 991.2 combo!
Green seatbelts?? I'd go with the red.
I've had satin black wheels in the past and they never look clean, even with ceramic coatings etc. Have gone gloss this time round.
The contrasting stitching looks better the the plain black IMHO.
This is a very sporty build so I would seriously consider the sports design package.

Yes, was initially considering the glass sunroof. But here, they only offer the normal Steel Sunroof as a no-cost option, and I did not like the crease lines that come with that sunroof version, and I probably will use it once or twice a year if specced. Also, more moving parts, electronics, additional rubber seals, etc. would be a potential issue in the long run when considering maintenance, hence, gave it a skip.

The duties and taxes make any imports roughly 2.5 times the European or North American pricing. Such is life.

Nice to hear that your 991.2 is similar. Do share some pics if you can.
I was split between Red and Green for the seat belts. Chose green as its my favorite color
I would've loved to add the contrast stitching and Sports design pack, however, the high duties and taxes also affect the individual options equally. Contrast stitching with interior trim package is $9000~ and the sport design package roughly adds $11,000~. A little too steep IMO and I had to pick and choose my options wisely to keep the costs somewhat reasonable.

Please do, we are still debating over 3 colours - one being MB. lava also or Crayon/chalk, I do think the 992 suits a light bright colour.

black satin wheels with whatever colour......

Although yours is lovely with those wheels.

Other shots appear closer to Mexico than Miami. First time I went to see a Miami car I was shocked at how green it was when the photo of the car was similar to yours above.

Default 992 Homelink

Is anyone else having a problem getting their Homelink to sync with their garage door opener. I’ve had my dealer out to the house and Homelink on the phone - no luck. Really would appreciate some advice !
