1. The option for window trim in "high gloss black". What color or finish is the standard window trim?

Flat black. It looks fantastic. Only switch to high gloss black if you are optioning Carrera S wheels in high gloss black.

2. Should I delete the Carrera T side decals?

Just depends on if you like the look. I skipped them, but I'm not into stickers.

3. Power Steering Plus really needed?

Absolutely not.

4. I've read plenty of debates on RAS, and it seems to be 50/50 on get it or ditch it......I personally don't care one way or the other, BUT...does it help resale value having it?

I optioned RAS on my 991.2 Carrera T and did not care for it at all. I was quick to skip it when specifying my 992T. But I view the T as a road car, not a track car. If you are planning to track your T a lot, then RAS makes better sense. You say you don't care, but if you drove the T back to back with and without, you'd care. As for resale, that is unknown. But I know I would skip the car if it had it. As an aside, I never think for one second about resale when I specify a 911. I used to do that years ago, and it led to cars I was not completely happy with.

I’ve had Porsches with 14 ways, 4 ways, and LWBS. Loved the added feel you get with the LWBS. My incoming GTS is optioned with the LWBS.

No matter what you end up with. Your going to love it.

Congrats and enjoy.
