More people will pick Guards Red now it is a premium colour. Lol

 

a few interesting tidbits:

• Smartphone compartment in the center console with wireless charging up to 15 W.
• Model Year 2025 992.2 911 models include physical HomeLink® buttons on the mirror. - Kinda Nice
• Tracking of driving behavior, user interaction and eye sight direction of the driver, there will be visual and acoustic warnings if distraction or indications of tiredness are detected. - Hmmm
• Rear Seat Delete
• No PDCC option
• Heated steering wheel standard
• Push start/stop button?

 

Likin’ the colors ‼️

My ‘24 Arctic Grey will be rarer 🤣🤣🤣

 

Guess I lucked out to be getting a 2024 C2S allocation that I managed to finally configure and submit yesterday before it disappeared from the website!

The lack of a manual transmission option now on any available to order 911 model is absurd.

no more heritage interior. Glad I spec’d it and the manual on my 992.1.

 

Too many 'over my dead body' comments here, and well now guess what?

 

Yeah. Most people don't even get the manual version. This forum doesn't like to hear that though.

 

I’m sure that Porsche understands where their long term market is going and are marketing to the next gen buyers who want all the latest and greatest in their minds (new buyers). From digital screens, faster speeds, etc and the lack of a manual means very little to most. While we may or may not like it, this where it is going so you either accept it or find something else. What that something else is if you want new, I don’t know but it’s called “progress” I guess.

 

Does anyone know if PDCC has been eliminated? It doesn’t show as an option on the GTS configurator and it doesn’t show as standard equipment either.

 

PDCC is now included standard, along with RAS, on the GTS

 

This basically means the price barely even went up on GTS. With my configuration, with the black leather with chalk stitching interior now also being included it comes out to be very close with the same options.

 

Honest question: how does Porsche justify charging $1500 for a color that has been $0 for the last 15+ years?

Follow-up question: why doesn’t upcharging for run-of-the-mill paint finishes get more scrutiny from consumers? I understand upcharging for PTS, matte finishes, etc. What I don’t understand is extra dollars for a basic metallic or non-metallic shade.

 

Yes. Except for China, but US customers are mopping up the extra allocations.

 

PDCC is standard? Can you delete it? Everything I have read says that PDCC is really only an advantage for the top heavy cars - Targa, Cabrio.

 

Digital tachometer colors are an "option". They should really be selectable in the screen to just about any color you want.

 

Looking like 50K ADM in the northeast for a GTS allocation.
