Are the CF options fake and not real Carbon fiber?
For this amount of money I would hope they are real…

awe come on. . He is very clear that they are his beliefs and there is no better overview of all the options out there.
100%. I found his two videos outstanding. It doesn’t mean i did everything he said (i.e. rear windshield wiper), but he gave his opinion and justifications in a logical manner.

I had RAS on our '17 Targa and did not order it on the incoming car. Personal preference I suppose but I am one of those people who lived with it for several thousand miles before deciding not to get it again. Perhaps I'm not a good enough driver to agree the cost/benefit is a no brainer.

I also like Nick Murray's videos. He certainly does not take himself too seriously and is clear his ideas are his own.

LED matrix lighting may be available here within a year. Or maybe not. I didn't take the risk and skipped that as well. The LED lighting is far better than any of my older cars as it is.

Don't like CF - again, personal. Ordered Paldao. Wood trim has been used on 911s in the distant past and is pretty much a unique offering in recent iterations.

I always order the GT steering wheel. See above.

RAS,must have to me..i have a tight turn often to oark
PCCB,must have..1st brake job you recoup a decent amount of your investment..once u have it u wont buy a car without
I have sport design and no lift.. have not had a need for it.. the targa 4s sits pretty high..maybe a lower car would scrape

My taycan scrapes all the time, where targa doesnt

My favorite option was picking Targa..or possibly black heritage design..olea leather is winderful

I'd definitely add extended range gas tank-only $270 and at almost 50% larger results in almost 50% less trips to the gas station.
