Since Massachusetts and my spouse both denied my “BIG TTS” vanity plate request, maybe I should just keep the Turbo S and try “PYDCASH”
I'm going to try for FPUTIN.

Sweet spot for potential S buyers that are looking for a bit more sportiness and exclusivity.
Not a sweet spot for a TTS owner. TTS to GTS is a downgrade in every way IMO, unless you have to have a manual or Targa.
Maybe watch some TTS review will clear up your mind.

If I could score allocations at MSRP for a TTS and GT3, would be my garage as well. Since I can't, and won't pay MSRP plus for pre owned, I can be content with the GT4 and GTS combo.
GT4 in San Marino blue is in the garage, and the GT silver GTS would be darn close, except she went down with the Felicity Ace, so gotta wait another 4 to 6 months, maybe more.

I went pretty light by design. MT, no sunroof. Black leather with chalk stitch, Premium pack, power steering plus, ventilated seats 4 way, GT wheel, center locks, black calipers, no side GTS logo, extended fuel tank, RAS, and FAL.

I like it! I've never had the FAL on a 911 - really worth it ?? And I'm undecided on the extended range tank, but its cheap enought and not likely to affect performance as a daily driver.

FAL is very worthwhile in the areas where I regularly drive - but its value is very dependent on conditions in the locations where the car will be driven.
