@GTS2022 It won’t be long. It is scheduled to be launched along with the carrera S. Official date I think was Jan 2025 but we might get 2-3 months of delay similar to what happened with base/gts.
So if you don't mind sharing, what details do you know that enabled you to "spec" your GTS Cabriolet? Or do you at least have an idea of what your spec is going to be?
I effectively bought my 992.1 "blind" as I got the 1st or 2nd one in our city... there were minor issues which made me swear I wouldn't buy a 1st year production car again, but silly old me, I'm looking at this 992.2 as a potential repeat mistake... or, if my dealer is able to, I might take one of the last 992.1 GTS models (as pricing is certain to increase for .2 , do you have a vague/accurate idea of what that increase might be?)
There is more info but these are the points:
1. Decision between 400bhp (base) and 540bhp (gts)
2. Base is ice only, GTS is e-turbo
3. The only other non hybrid car coming is the turbo but it is 2wd
4. I would like this car to be a convertible - gt3 is out
5. S will come early in 2025
To be honest I might be equally happy with a nicely opitoned carrera 4 cabriolet. Yes the power output is significably less but you still get a great car.
The other thing I am trying to find out is how much PTS will affect the build - time wise. I can wait a few months to get the colour I want.

Love the cosmetic revisions.
It's going to be a very good looking car.
Love the new rear grill and rear bumpers for both the GTS and the base.
They address the very things I don't like in the 992.1.
Amazing specs. My 992.1 order hasn't even arrived yet and it's already feeling like an old model and I wish I'd waited for a .2. I hope this doesn't push down value of the .1 too much.

Any word on manual options? Is it assumed only base and maybe Turbo would have them, as they are the only pure ICE cars?

Think of it this way, you may be getting the last non-electric incorporated 911 they make. I'd think that would drive value UP.
When all is said and done and in 10-15 years people will look at cars like the 992.1 GTS manual and say wow what a car that was - the last of its kind. Sorta like what we do with the prior generation greats now.
It looks like there may be a trim piece at the bottom of the instrument cluster…
Also, I still maintain there will be an (optional) light up Porsche logo on the back, like the Tycan, which is what I believe has been hidden behind this persistent black tape in all the spy shots. We’ll know soon if I was right.

Do you know if the S will be ICE or will it be hybrid with an electric motor on the front like the GTS. I’m trying to stick with ICE, but I would like the more powerful engine in the S (like the 992.1 S vs 992.1 base).

C2S coming in July here. There will always be a new model or mid cycle refresh on the horizon. The beauty of a 911 and the reason I chose it over competitors is how gracefully they age. Timeless design.
