Fair point but are turbo allocation harder than GTS? If it’s a matter of a few months, I would wait. Just a step up in car in my eyes…and you don’t need to add a lot of add-ons and instead can spec a lightly optioned turbo and then add pieces aftermarket as you wish later. That what I would do if I am to spend $180k+
I get the logic of what you're saying and I've tried to convince myself to do the same on previous builds, but it never works out that way. Some people just don't like low option cars.

Turbo allocations are often harder to get than TTS allocations, believe it or not. Not b/c of demand - Porsche just doesn't make many of them.

For me I would go with Chalk seat belts rather than blue since you have chalk stitching it would match. Probably not do the tach and clock in any color since chalk is not available, I think white would be too white with your other bits being chalk. But remember this is your $200K build, do it your way. I'm hesitate to post my new build as most wont like it....but I do.

thanks for these feedback, I guess the rainbow
interior is too much after all...
maybe I will just go with all yellow tachs, chrono, seatbelts..but the red seats and yellow color remind me of mcdonalds...
color wise I love the gts race tex with red tachs and chrono combo but I really need seat vents because I have heard that the interior cabin gets hot due to the rear engine heat..
if I were to keep the red leather seats..what would be the most ideal color for seatbelts and tach and chrono then?
FYI, this will be a daily driver, all season round. Not going to garage it at winter.

Colors aside, that is too personal and everyone has different tastes, some a lot more different…….
Anyway, on a practical note, I’d just make sure you really want center lock wheels and the potential PIA/extra expense they can be.

I would like to hear more about this heat from the engine cooking to interior making AC completely inadequate so much so you need cooled seats to survive, and therefore ditching a part of the gts spec you really want .
I only have 750 miles on mine ( only had it a week ) have loaded the kids in the back near the supposed inferno and everyone seemed to be just fine.

I hear this is unique to 992s and possibly other vehicles would be better that have lower ADM, short waits and no interior color customization! Would remove lots of stress from his life! But on a serious side why would you not have your spec complete - if you got a build come up they locked tomorrow you should be ready to move on it.
