Standard CC is next to useless on busy freeways. ACC on the other hand looks to be 'the missing link' here, I do wish they allowed it on manuals.

I got my 991.2 C4S 1/19 at 65, first Porsche.

I think your config is quite nice, though some have said no Sport Exhaust, it's on mine, that and the manual were must-haves. I would like to annoy a few people in my dotage if at all possible.

The only change I would have possibly made is to my car was to add the club leather. I got the 14-ways in the agate. That the only item I would suggest adding.

I would leave the 19/20 wheels, they are fine for the car.

For me ACC is a must, I have had it on my last 4 cars and use it all the time. Living in San Diego on the freeways you are either in traffic going 80+ or stop and go. In stop and go traffic it is wonderful. Engage it and it will keep you your set distance from the car ahead. If that car stops yours stops when they start going just hit the gas pedal and it will resume station keeping. On normal driving it will keep the set speed and then slow when needed even coming to a stop and if you want to speed up just step on the gas pedal and you are in control. When you let off the gas it will slow to the selected speed.
