Gotta love a place like CA. They promote EVs as an environmental badge of honor which they are clearly not. At the same time the flower children have closed enough power plants that electric shortages complete with 3rd world country style blackouts occur all happening as the demand for electric power increases with each additional electric vehicle on the road. God help the rational folks who have to live in that state for whatever reason.

Really? You're at again with your CA drivel? Didn't anyone ever teach you when you don't have something nice to say, just keep it to yourself? We get it. Enjoy the perfect state of FL. I think you need to take your own advice from other threads and give it rest.
Anyways, back to the topic. OP, while you have checked a lot of boxes, it doesn't seem too over the top. I'm a firm believer of getting the options you want as they add to the enjoyment. That said, a few opinions since you asked. I would skip the Burmester; with the increased noise in the cabin of the GTS, I doubt you would be able appreciate the sound and Bose in the 992 is definitely an upgrade from the Bose in my '11 and '15 P cars. Like others have said, get PPF done by a reputable shop afterwards. Matrix lights are only for looks. And the illuminated door sills, while cool looking for sure, are a little pricey IMO. Re: the extended fuel tank, who doesn't like extra range? I added that to my build. I personally don't like LKA and wouldn't use ACC, but others who have ACC swear by it. YMMV.
Good luck with securing an allocation! I'm still waiting to hear if I'm able to get in on the first wave.

In Florida when a hurricane bears down gas stations pile up with long lines of people who not only fill their tanks but get extra cans for generators . If it hits many stations lose power . Electric cars are in deep manure and with an ICE car every sip might become handy. Its not an expensive option no matter where one lives.

It's more about the incessant hyperbole, exaggeration, and often times, misinformation. If I wanted to read/hear those things, I'd tune into any news site/channel. Perhaps it's just me, but I don't think we need more of it to make anything more interesting. I need to find that ignore feature.

Any given Sunday at my local shopping center. If you love cars and driving, California is hard to beat.

I was born in Oceanside CA and we left when I was about 8 and that was in the 60s. If its home for a person then that it is and a real reason to stay. I have absolutely no tolerance for idiotic pie in the sky Liberal nonsense, CA would not be a place I would be looking to relocate to. Glad you are happy there. Enjoy, you certainly have a nice group of new vehicles to play with!
