Thanks - that does look good! Tempting with the green T interior for some unique color on the inside. I prefer the bold bright colors on Porsche sports cars, so have some resistance to a monochromatic white (too boring, common?), but it certainly looks good here. I'd be tempted to get the CF roof or glass sunroof to breakup the white maybe.
I've spent a lot of time on the configurator--and since no PTS--white IS my preferred color. Add the Motorsports stripe--$620 option--and see how nicely that 'wakes up' ole' boring white! (Truly, I think the T wears that stripe exceptionally well.)
...this is an active thread indeed (very enjoyable).
@AdamIsAdam , I vote no on the CF roof. Your idea for adding your own Agate Motorsports stripe is way cooler.
@toph4242 , WOW. What a picture of the 911R. Darn inspiring way to take a white T, spec the Lizard stitching and simply add the awesome exterior stripes (aftermarket).
...and in general LOVE seeing all the specs with preparation for roof transport option! Roof bars on the 911 are badass.
I have a hardback marketing book for the 991.2 T that I think captures the ethos pretty well. I believe this still applies to the 992 T. I like how they call out specifically this is not for the collector, but for the driver. I was impressed that the early 991.2 T press drives were done in the mountains with cars on winter tires.

I like the motorsport stripe, but it deletes the T side decals, which I also like. I think the sides benefit from the decals to breakup the slab sided appearance. Wish could do both! Might be worth asking my dealer if they will do an exception and do the stripe with the decals.
I was on the hunt today for a shark blue 992 to see the color in real life. Have a look at what I found at PECLA!
Beautiful Python Green! I wonder if this was one of the press cars?
Now I'm rethinking Satin Black wheels versus Titanium Gray. I wanted Satin Black because that was how to get the colored wheel crest. But, should a T stick with gray as its motif, just as GTS has Satin Black everything?
Colored crests on a Titanium Gray center cap would be perfect.
@Mr. Maboomba I saw it indoors back in 2018 at PECATL on a then new 911 model, the 992, and thought it was a beautiful light gray, one of the most beautiful colors I'd ever seen. But in most pictures it looks cream. That light gray was gorgeous, though. On a Cayenne it would be way too much cream. One would need a peach to go with it!
Didn’t know the older T was available with both PCCBs and the buckets wow. What a buzzkill 😔

So what dealer markups are buyers paying for the T? I am about to configure mine tomorrow and my dealer is asking $10K for repeat customers (me) and $20K for new customers. Anyone buying a T at straight MSRP out there?
Me. I have a good relationship with my local dealer, and always get charged MSRP, even on GT cars.
I concur, had the gloss back sports design kit on my 718S, 23k miles and 18 months later the scratches and stone chips were clearly visible on the gloss Black trim.
Not much can be done other than replacing either.
