Option 1, no matrix, no GTS package with deviated stitching in red http://www.porsche-code.com/PPWDQE76
Option 2 with matrix and GTS stitching in red http://www.porsche-code.com/PP91XM66
I could live without Matrix while GTS package with deviated stitching is red is rather tempting.
Delivery late October, any comment is welcome.
My lock date is September 6th, and TYD says the delivery date is November 18th. Weird....hope it doesn't change for either of us.

Deposit Paid: 2023 911 4GTS Build Freeze Sept 5th, Target Delivery 11/11/22 - Daily Driver (1k - 3k miles /yr)
http://www.porsche-code.com/PPSERKI2 - Shows basic interior as debating on GTS interior (blk/red) vs leather + stitching w air OR perhaps 2 tone (if I can figure something out that feels right)
Also any feedback on ACC - love it for LA traffic and stop & go but not unless smooth
Also adding Lightweight glass for sound - hope is more quiet than my 2006 911S
- Premium Package
- Adaptive Sport Seats Plus (18-way)

- Front Axle Lift System
- Lightweight and Noise Insulated Glass
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- and more ....
?? any input welcome for the next week ;-)

Maybe the difference is due to the fact I am based in Italy.
Off topic, two days ago I enjoyed 7 laps at Portimao circuit…what a track!

Targa 4 GTS. Just got word I can get the PTS in Oslo Blue! Pushed the build slot out a bit but it will be worth the wait.

Very nice! Curious - when was your original build slot?

Original was October 21 delivery. Revised for PTS is March 17. Just in time for spring! I was told there was a hold on new PTS orders, hence the 5 month delay. I've waited this long, what's another 5 months over winter?

Looking to create a gentlemen's racer, yes it's a manual, while I wait on a Touring.

Leaning into the GTS theme, I've kept the unique to GTS black wheels and trim and think Dark Olive goes well, low key yet killer color.
Inside Mohave Beige works well with the exterior Dark Olive and the yellow PCCB's.

I've added more leather & have a couple CXX items pending approval. (trying to keep the build reasonable )

I'm looking foward to having rear seats in a 911 as I've still got school aged kids.

Doing euro delivery for 16 days for my upcoming GTS (allocation cant come fast enough though) and considering doing the factory option and supplement uncovered areas after car gets here. Also doing the motorsport stripe on top of the PPF which will be done here as well.

Hoping to find people who've done factory PPF and ED though for first hand experience.
One reason is that you can get PPF done where you are locally for a lot less cost, and from what I've been told, Xpel is the best and I couldn't find out what brand the Porsche factory uses

We have tried that for the MY22 and it kicks it out right away... If I can get the Aerokit, I wouldn't mind paying the $5,900 MSRP jump... Thoughts? I need a shot of whiskey...
When I compared the price increase for the 23 over the '22, I found that the real number is closer to $3k because some things you pay for on the '22 are included in the '23

I was told Porsche of Manhattan just received two open allocations for ‘23 GTS. Not sure which variants, but was told they’re looking for $15k over.

Are you sure about this? My exact build was approximately $6k more for a '23.

The front cooling seat is a must so I had to do with a different seat and interior, not a GTS interior. Feedback is welcome.
Still choose PDDC or not. I do not like the Rear Axl steering.
