I believe the folding buckets were available on ROW 991.1 and 991.2 cars. They show as optional in the ROW 991.1 and 991.2 brochures for Carrera , Carrera GTS, and Turbo/Turbo S models. Not entirely sure on ROW Carrera T as the brochure did not have an options section.

Today I was at the Porsche dealership and there was a brand new Carrera T in Ruby Red outside, unfortunately I couldn't take any pictures because the vehicle was just being moved to the garage. It looked gorgeous. The color is gorgeous and not overpowering at all. So everyone who ordered blind in Ruby Red can look forward to something great.

Dealer?? Might try to locate some pics online or from them if they have a T in that color

Making the drive from LA to Palm Springs and then Scottsdale. I recall seeing PPF as an Exclusiv Manufakturer option but don’t any longer - are you in the US? Would like to have this done prior to the return trip.

I have a 991.2 GT3 Touring that is not DD and I really like the fabric seat inserts…I’ll just stick with the Race-tex
‘And my vote is GT Silver also…for the reasons you stated…some family members…wife and daughter-in-laws suggested black….
I want a fairly basic car…but are there any “must have” options you would recommend?
I’ve read a lot about RAS but since I’m not going to track this car I really can’t see how it really be worth 2K?

I never tracked mine but found it useful, especially in tight areas. The turning radius is phenomenal. The car was on rails during spirited driving. Can't say that without RAS it also would have been. I've driven non-RAS ones on track but it wasn't back to back and also in different environments (street vs track), so can't comment on the differences. I can say, that I would order it again for sure. I never had that 'uneasy' feeling that some describe. It was transparent to me as far as any assistance. To me, RAS is almost a must on a T since it's not available on the base and it's a performance add-on.

I'm sure you won't know if you don't have it. Like others with more experience than me have said that it doesn't make a huge difference. For me, it was a must have as I stated since it's a performance option that's not available on the base. And since many here believe in the "ethos of the T", then it makes sense for them to chose that option. Of course there is the lightweight argument against it as well as a 'purist' driving machine. However, I fail to see that argument when there are so many other nannies already on it (PTV, PASM, etc.). For me it's simple. The T is more about allowing to get a bunch of things that aren't available on the base (7MT and RAS amongst others).
Edit: And I found it immensely helpful in tight streets for U-turns.
