Default Just ordered 911 GTS - How did I do?

After countless hours spent in the Porsche Configurator, I finally ordered a 911 GTS (992.1)

Will not be a daily driver but rather a weekend car that I will not track. I figure it might be the last time to order a fully ICE with a manual transmission. Planning on holding on to it for the long-term as I really have no desire to drive a hybrid/EV 911.

Yes but I was happy to go with GT Silver for a classic/timeless look.

What PTS are you considering?

That Canadian luxury tax is no joke.

I thought CA dealers weren't allowed to charge ADM?

No room for ADM, the feds take 10% and the province where I reside adds 20% to that total as well as the feds taking another 5%.
200k becomes 280k.

I recently learned Canadian dealerships can charge ADM on unlisted cars. They have their workarounds.

I like your build. It's fun to see the different option choices on different models.
here are some silly, throw away comments.
The front lip is in black plastic but you are going side skirts in painted. I might try to match them.
I would go chalk seat belts with that sticking.
if you have the race tex roof, which I love, I go race tex in other places where you can. I like race tex on my steering wheel for track (just specd a daily with leather).
DEFINITELY don't miss on the exclusive design gas cap. Best bang for your Porsche $!

On a serious note. If truly a track machine I'd take out the sun roof.

I absolutely adore Meissen blue. Sadly no PTS yet for me.

Love GT Silver as well. My GT4 is is in that color.

I assure you, it was not if this was a USA order.

PTS is not available because of the changeover to 992.2
