a bunch of the reviews had the stone guards and light weight package... you sure about this? Are they included with light weight package maybe which is why you'd get that message?

Yes that's very annoying that you can't get the reduced sound deadening with the rear seats. Only reason for me to look at it over a GT3. Like others have said would much rather have 4 ways as well

It's not about getting clear guards.

If the black stone guards is your only obstacle in the configuration; having black PPF put on as a replacement would be an absolutely trivial job.

Good looking out....well aware, and custom would probably provide much needed additional coverage area...but again, not the same as having factory, when you grew up falling for the brand over:

Don’t let that be your stopper. Suncoast sells black OEM stone guards.

So two of these reviews (I can't keep track of which ones) state that the Targa GTS does not get the 10mm lower suspension. The others don't mention that. Do we know if that is correct? I included FAL in my build (assuming I ever get my allocation) because of the slope of my driveway and the 10MM drop. Without the 10mm drop, I might reconsider FAL.

this is correct/known. you can even see in the configurator that the undoing of the -10 doesn't show up for targa (non targas have the option of removing the 10mm drop). idk why, but no 10mm drop for targas; this is true since 991. FAL is not needed; I didn't have it on my GTS with the -10 and didn't miss it once.

It appears that the 10mm drop is not available for the targa in the 4, 4S or 4GTS versions.

To be honest, I couldn't get past the 10 minute mark.

Thought that was a pretty good chat through the GTS, interesting on the RWS, might need to add it to my spec!
