I agree on the painted trim, but I feel it only works with more muted colors. I did not like the gloss black on my 991.2 T and wanted to make sure I didn't have that again on the 992.

I think it works really well with GT silver, but not sure about the other colors. If I were getting silver I'd def add the painted interior trim. It is also unique in that it is no cost on the T.

I dunno about the trim painted, Porsche gives it for free but the trade off is that it kinda feels lousy. I personally long for the days of full brushed aluminum in the interior but alas.. given the choices I stayed with the scratchy black plastic (Gulp)

Build the car for yourself. Looks like a proper T build to me, congrats. I put PPF on the piano black interior to avoid scratching. Can't tell and it also doesn't mark as easily so it's always clean.

Agree entirely. The piano black is easily cleaned and complements the rest of the interior nicely.

I think it looks good (other than the almost $700 they want for it). Tempted to add to my order...

I am uncertain about slowing down the manufacturing process, but I would suspect that they have these in bulk. The price seems fairly reasonable for “bespoke” especially in comparison to the $13k I was willing to give for PTS.

Edit: Added screenshot to show other preselected design options for the bespoke center armrest.

I considered it as well. The problem with it is if one does not have a MY23 then technically they do not officially have a 75th anniversary vehicle. MY24 = 76 years. Sixty-one 911 years.

Lol listing says 7 speed manual, pics say different. Basically a minimally optioned 'dealer spec' car. Including rear seats, sunroof, FAL, and a race-tex wheel. $125K sticker maybe?

Anyone else’s TYD down this last week!? I added LCA, and dashcam prewire to my T and all dates have been gone since last Thursday. Its supposed to lock on the 31st. Probably no biggie, just addicted to checking the website and don’t like the uncertainty.

Yes you can understand I did not like this. But I have a good relationship with my dealer and we have made multiple good deals. So I expect we can work it out this time as well. In my favor is the color and manual and no backseats. Should be a lot more popular. And he has all the confidence. But we still need to agree on the money so we will see. The differences are the 18-way vs 4-way. The sunroof. No alcantara elements. Bose and LED+ added. Deviated stitching. And if GT silver then interior trim in exterior color probably. Rest should be the same.

Must have option for me as well. And it’s still on the configurator as a normal option. Not on the bespoke options.
