@Fishah I beg to differ since that and the 18 ways are the only add on weight options on my car.
I only took them because it's the only way you can get leather in a T that I wanted I don't like sport -tex so it's just choice not I think a travesty !

I had to think that through a sec. "Is is Sept 11th again?" No, it's European dates.

It's definitely most important to get what you like!

@Uhu @Pivot Me to it's going to be a close thing as to whether I get the stickers or my car first.
At long last my car is at Sheerness,, so OH so Close now??
It's being almost a 5 months wait from my first car being ditched!
For you all my build code is PR672695
Most of the cost is on what I call cosmetic enhancements to add to the Ice Grey Metallic look.
I am sure it will be criticized but it's what I want all to their own .

The answer you are seeking is available at 4:55 and directly from the head of Porsche’s GT Dept and can be found in multiple YouTube interviews.

I was kind of bummed that mine was optioned with the ventilated seats until the car arrived, I really like the way they work and frankly while maybe boring, I like the look.

I'm kind of surprised you can't just deactivate RAS through the PCM.... Can you?

Uhu

You can deactivate it in the configurator

This has been discussed several times in this thread, and numerous other places on RL. RAS is polarizing, far from universally loved. And it was stated Porsche skipped it on the S/T for both weight and driving feel.

I get the feeling I am naively stepping into no man's land.

That's not a T issue, that's a 992 issue. Imagine how you'd feel with a heavier 992 variant.

I owned several 996's. I miss the smaller size, but I'll take the 992's looks and performance eight days a week.

Mike818

Considering the tanks people are driving around these days, I don't mind the size/safety trade off. The Hummer EV weighs like 9k pounds. It would probably flatten my Evo 8 in a collision.

I know we are all quite smitten with our Carrera T's but if you want to love your T even more, check out the 992.2:

@Devon Racer , you have been very patient but you will love the new shiny hardware.
Also, you are an experienced driver, and I look forward to your views on the 992T.

Ok but is that what we were talking about? That went right over my head. I was pointing out that Autocar's reported top speed in each gear was way off. I thought we were comparing 7MT cars against each other and trying to get actual numbers for top speed in each gear

So unless this is a typo on the part of Porsche, then you're technically right. The rear end gearing is 3.59 on the T vs 3.56 that I got from Presskit for the Carrera S. That makes a difference of 1mph in 3rd gear and honestly I'm very skeptical that this is accurate but it's possible. And Autocar's numbers are still way off
