Default Finally, got my allocation for a 4gts…but a Targa!
I was wondering how it would feel to get an allocation because it really seemed too far away.
I am so grateful that I was offered a Targa 4gts instead of my initial wish of a 4gts coupe.
My dealer officially submitted the order in yesterday and my official wait begins with the Tracking thru the Porsche app!
Cant wait.
Build freezes in a month so I can change here and there but I went for Agate grey with red interior. No crazy colors and not too many options.

CONGRATS! I hear the app looks different these days. Can you share a screen capture?

Hard choosing between full red vs black/red interior.
Thoughts? 🙏

welcome to the targa waiting game... and thanks for the reminder. My build freezes in a week or so, time to give it a final lookover.

Black/Red all day. The red seats can look great with the silver/grey exterior paint like yours but the full red dash & red steering wheel are too much. Black/Bordeaux is a classy look imo.

Do you mind sharing your build code? Would love to see what others do for their Targas. 😂

Glad you finally got yours. I know you have been trying hard for a minute now. The Targa is cool. I would happily take a Targa allocation.

The Guards Red on your seatbelts, stopwatch and tachometer is the not the same color as the Bordeaux Red leather.

Color choices are personal (I prefer for black/bordeaux)....just want to make sure you are aware of the different shades of red

Your car, your preference of course but I'll just say full red looks like a crime scene. Mind you, red is one of my favorite colors. How about a silver targa bar? It'll pop more IMO.

luckily I am aware of the different red tones and thought it was ok..but it seems that black/red is more favorable.. I just reckon the targa shows more interior so wanted to show the redness more?!

great opinion, but wanted to keep the blackness character of the gts so stood with the black bar!
