thank you

 

Ok so just submitted my build and pre-traded my 2021 992 TODAY(it was sad to drive away and see it in the rear view mirror). This was all for a January Delivery date. I still have about 65 days till my lock date but I’m pretty confident with this build.
please provide feedback, I would greatly appreciate it, you won’t hurt my feelings!

(Passed on Artic Grey, Lightweight Package, All Carbon Fiber, PCCB, FAL, PDCC, RAS)





and here is my car getting Soul cats removed and back to stock for the trade in!

 

@992StormTrooper , how many miles did you put on that baby? Looks pristine!

 

Purchased preowned with 4800 in October for 135k. Sold today with 8400 at 123k. Lost 12k in depreciation from a higher market value in Oct 2021 compared to Sept 2022.

 

I like the build, but not sure I would pass on the FAL especially.
My Targa GTS locks in about 2 weeks, and the build is similar. What were your thoughts and why did you pass on FAL, PDCC, and RAS?
I am down to Shark Blue, GT Silver, and Chalk.

 

added back FAL… since it’s GPS, seems easy enough to not be a hassle and piece of mind for driving more often in unknown areas.

Those are 3 colors I’m debating as well as Arctic. having trouble making up my mind now.

For PDCC, I don’t like it. Takes some of the fun out of the 911Coupe, better for cars with top weight like a SUV, Targa, or 911 with glass roof… I’m not adding any roof. And for RAS, adds weight and just one more thing to have issues and if I’m not trying to reach for track times… so why bother? PDCC and RAS are expensive. I’d prefer PCCB if I wanted to push the envelope with dropping unsparing weight, but it’s soo much $… plus the GTS get turbo brakes, seems a bad economical decision to throw that out the window and pay full bot for PCCB. These are my opinions and preferences of course.

 

Have you seen an Arctic Gray? I have not, but am curious. Hardly any pictures of that color here on RL.

 

this is the thread I’m following: https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...2&goto=newpost

My build locks tomorrow or the day after:

It's Chalk with the Black GTS package and Orange deviated stitching. Trying to decide if I should go wit chalk seat belts since orange belts are not available, or just leave them black.

Any major errors or omissions?

 

Having seen Shark blue and AG in person, you will not regret the Shark blue. It has so much appeal and pop you get lost staring into the color. That coupled with the black accents will look amazing! Nice build.

 

JMHO, upgrade to at least the 14 way, preferably the 18 way. Aluminum pedals will compliment shifter. You know you have to have a lithium battery if you add the RAS, and it's not without some issues. Matrix lights? Heated steering wheel? Pop for the gas cap. Love those options. Orange deviated stitching is your personal choice, mine would be chalk, not orange. Nothing orange on the whole car. Either way, gonna be great.

 

Thanks for the feedback. I do not like the 14-ways, not enough bolstering. The 4-ways are the same seats as the 18's, without some of the unnecessary adjustments. I passed on the matrix lights since they don't do anything different in the US, and I live in SoCal, so no need for heated wheel. I held off on things I can add later, likely for less cost, like the pedals and the gas cap. I saw a chalk 911 with orange stitching and fell in love. To me, the chalk needs something colorful to perk it up. Chalk on chalk would be boring.

 

 

The pictures look great. What are your impressions from seeing it in the flesh?
