I would have gotten the silver trim on the windows as it really goes well with those wheels.

I love the build! I also spec'd a high build C2S. Enjoy it!!
The only thing I'd say is you should've gone bigger!
If I spec'd that car I would have added the following:
Burmester
leather door handles
FAL (yes I know the front lip is $300 to replace etc)
RAS
Power steer
Carbon steering wheel (although I realize the theme inside is aluminum/external color based)
Glass roof/Extended fuel tank (unless you are trying to go w/ lower weight build)

Over built. Not the spec I'd want to see on a 4S. As long as I don't have to pay the tab. Nice car.

In lieu of no sunroof, perhaps a brighter interior, such as chalk? Otherwise this is a great, want-for-nothing build.

Highly recommend searching the forums for a thread by @12v Nick, who has a package designed to bring the Bose system up to a level commensurate with the price of a 911.

The Bose is not flat/true by any stretch of the imagination... The bass is boomy/echoey, the highs are muddled, and the overall sound signature is decidedly "Bose"-ey: just a few steps short of the Beats by Dre sound.

Having a 992 without the RAS and the FAL and now having one with both of these in the new one, I would agree with you here.
I grew up in NY so I know what the roads are like and the places you got to maneuver in and out of and dodging the madness, these two will benefit you tremendously. I’d consider it! Driving a RAS 911 is a totally different experience!

How exactly is the extended fuel tank adding any significant weight? If you are referring to the weight of gas, well don’t fill it all the way on a track day. But it’s nice to have the option on long distance drives. And who knows 10 or 15 years out gas prices may be very dependent on location so it gives better flexibility to fill up opportunisticly.
I wanted to save a follow-up post and not have to defend what I wrote but clearly have to explain myself anyway lol...
https://rennlist.com/forums/992/1242...an-option.html
I didn't write this nor do I know whether it's true but this is what people on our forum would write....
"A gallon of gasoline will typically weigh 6.3 lbs (less than water at 8.33 lbs)
The extended tank is 6.8 extra gallons
23.7 gallon fuel tank at full should weigh approximately 151.68 or 42.84 lbs more than the 16.9 gallon standard tank.
At highway Porsche advertised fuel consumption of 25 mpg for the manual and 23 for the PDK, the extra 6.8 gallons should extend the range by 170 and 156 miles respectively.
If tracking and every second and pound matters, the extra tank does not have to be FULL but if traveling or sprinting along your favorite back roads, the extra 42.84 lbs would hardly be noticed?
23.7 gallon extended range tank? Yes please! "

Other than PDK, that is a build I can endorse! A real beauty.
