The question is are you sure you will be able to get up and down your driveway? If not you may consider this:

(1) Front Axle Lift System - $2,770

I also have a T that is going into freeze on 12/19 (build starts on 2/1) so I've been looking at many of the posts here, asking lots of questions and getting some great advise for the past few months.

I hope this is the right forum thread for this question (let me know if it isn't) but would love thoughts on my T build. My change freeze date is 2/1/24 so I have plenty time to make changes. Here's my submitted build: https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PR5D5MR9


@TheSunTheSea Firstly, welcome on board and congratulations for having the coolest handle on this forum👍👍
As @Vernin says, you should option what suits you there’s no right or wrong.
Personally I wouldn’t bother with some of the external (non-visible) items like fuel cap and engine cover.
Also depends on where you live but seat ventilation AND heated steering wheel??
As for the rest I quite like it and I couldn’t live without my 18 way seats (back problems).
Enjoy😎

Have you had any issues with it? True, but I had some trips that I had planned many years back that I took my car to, this year. Which I will not be doing for another 5 years or longer., I will not drive 20k in a year I don't think.

I am not saying my car will not last 10 years, frankly, I am not sure how long it will last. The thing with the Mesger engines though is they are bulletproof, and the most reliable engine ever made, by Porsche. We have no idea how the engines in the 992 will last. I am worried about the GTS 992s though since we have the same engine, it is pushing more HP from the same engine, which means it may have more stress problems than the T or the base

Assuming the ratio of new sales is quite different it begs the question
Following this forum from the start I’d guess among Rennlisters on here it’s at most 60/40 MT x PDK?
Any thoughts?
