Very nice! Beautiful.

 

Hello all. Does anyone know what colour this Targa is? Is it Oak Green Metallic or PTS? Thanks.

 

Looks like PTS Oak Green Metallic

 

My T4S build http://www.porsche-code.com/PM3KRJT4
I know it’s loaded but I do not like regrets later. I have most of these options on my 2016 build Boxster Spyder.

 

I don’t think many people have driven a 992 Targa of any stripe, much less one with and without PDCC.

 

Very nice build - beautiful looking Targa. I have most of those options on mine (plus a few more...). Unless you really want the leather pouch for your key, you can save quite a bit of money doing that yourself. Porsche OEMs on Suncoast cost a little over $100. Can get much cheaper ones elsewhere, but I have no experience with those. I see the rationale for the black/silver wheel center caps, but I always like the look of the colored ones - pretty minor point. Many will argue against PDCC/RAS - I have them on mine (had them as standard on a 991.2 TTS and loved the handling so put them on my Targa). Haven't driven a Targa without them, but I have no regrets. Of course the LED Matrix lights are not fully functional in the US - they look awesome and hopefully NTSB will get off their butts and give the technology their final approval soon.

thanks what options am I missing ? I really appreciate your review

 

The only things of much substance that I went with that you don't have are the sport design package/sport design side skirts and the GT sport steering wheel. I like the feel of the smaller wheel, but the trade off is more of the outside gauges are cut off from view. Not a huge deal to me - don't really use the info that's there. The sport design package is purely personal preference - my strong preference is the look of the front end. I did not go with PCCB - unless you're going to be tracking your car the performance is not needed. Main benefit is less brake dust, but that's an expensive option for keeping wheels cleaner. I had a few other minor things if you're interested - build code was PM3UHLX0.

 

Tasteful build. I like it.

I am a big PCCB fan. Beyond brake dust and performance -- they just look awesome. At your price point, I think they are a must have. Yellow calipers would work too.

Personally, I'd go Jet black Metallic over plain black -- mostly for practical reasons. JBM is easier to maintain with less obvious swirling.

I'd consider leather backs to your seats (which would require Sport plus 4 way). With a Targa, the back of the seats are much more visible and the leather backs dress it up a bit..

I'd also consider leather wrapped steering column. It's a small thing, but stands out.

Nicely done with illuminated sills. A lot of people skip this, but it is a nice finishing touch and virtually impossible to retrofit.

I prefer the non-GT wheel. It feels better in the hand and gauge visibility is superior.

With a black car -- it would be worth considering something other than black for the interior. Just for some nice contrast since this is a semi-open top.

 

thank you for your feedback. I like the idea of adding leather to seat backs and steering column. I have yellow pccb on my spyder just want something different this time. I prefer black non metallic but I understand it’s harder to keep clean. Thanks again!

 

Just changed to the Sport Tek center inlay seatshttp://www.porsche-code.com/PM9CY392

 

Nice - I think you've got the spec pretty dialed in. Personally, I think it's worth sacrificing Burmester to get the interior looking right. I like the idea of upgraded hifi, but in a 911 I really would only spec it if the car was 100% and I just had some money to burn. On my TTS build, I'm skipping it too.

 

thanks! Yes I have the Burmester in my spyder really enjoy it

 

Agree. I have the Burmester in my Targa. Many think it's a waste, but I really enjoy it. Had the typical Bose setup in my previous C4S and TTS, which was good but despite the naysayers, I find the Burmester to be a very noticeable step up. Your build is looking very nice - when does it lock and what's your anticipated delivery date?

 

Im not exactly certain of lock or delivery as it may be a 2022. My dealer doing me a favor on this one so I’m just sitting back relaxing. I really notice difference on Burmester too. Probably this summer delivery. I have the Bose in my cayenne GTS which I bought used and the Burmester is superior period.
