Power Steering Plus is a waste.

You don’t need rear axle steering on a 992, keeps the driving feel classic and more analog.

Do yourself a favor and option in a full leather interior in this car. The injection molded plastic dash and doors downgrade the look and feel of the cockpit.

These dates seem improbable for a ‘24 T build……

I just came back from a Hour of night driving in my T and I ironically I was giving my specs a thought!

Chalk (good)
7MT (good)
Glass sliding sunroof ( I like this because it breaks the large expanse of color in the body panels)
standard sport plus 4 way seats (give this some time, I hated it when I sat on it first, now my muscle memory is building up and I am loving the hard deep seats)
extended range tank (oh yes! its a sweet sweet thing!, if you want to save weight, just fill to half lol)


satin black wheels (nope, I think you should stick with the grey wheels, why, it will go with he grey mirror caps and the letterings very well, also when u do the GT3 side skirts, its more on the titanium grey side than black. stick with grey wheels)
also chalk + grey bits are gonna be sweet sweet sweet!

power steering plus (not worth it, the standard steering is actually very epic. also RAS is not needed unless you will track the car competitively, the running radius is better then my 87 targa with normal steering)

ionizer (yes please, I missed this one. my bedroom has one and oh it it feels great, makes the driving experience like a cab with a breath of fresh air)
exclusive fuel cap (yeah, I added it, cheap)
LCA (mmmmm. well I still look over my shoulders while changing lanes, its a small car and you will be ok with or without. depends on what type of driver are you (hey dont cheat, be truthful with urself about ur driving style or ask you other half, they give an unbiased opinion) )

PDLS+ (ahh.. mmm not needed honestly)

central tach/sport chrono/belts in red. (chrono, tach is already adds a lot of red. I think you can skip the seat belts, its gonna be too much red)

smoking package (cool)
BOSE (yes, its pretty decently good)
surround view (yes please. parking in garages is a pain from side view)
storage package (yeah, some dont like nets, honestly no harm, but I never used it yet)
prep for dashcam (yes)
ambient lighting (ohh yes, makes a big difference, small things like lights the footwells and bottles, its lovely)
rear seats (yes, I have kids who ride so yes to rear seats, also the sun roof helps to reduce back seat claustrophobia big time )
puddle light projectors (I like them)

debating- PDLS+, side sticker badging (the side decal will look Nice on chalk, and if you keep them will go well with your grey wheels. if u keeping black wheels, the mirror and side decals will look like a conflicting drama)

I would cut a few options and get the full leather. dont do the chalk sticking, its barely noticeable, do the green if you have to get color (goes with ur chalk exterior) else just stick with non color full leather one .. (the 4k one)
FAL: I use it. I am very very happy and grateful I have it. drive around ur usual places and see if u need it. else dont bother.

dont do aluminum pedals, (get the numeric ones later)

chalk looks superb with he standard bumper BTW. u will do fine there. also chalk will look find with the red taillight bar, dont need the exclusive one.

hope it helps. if around DFW lemme know and I can bring my T along to help.

It’s a cabin and the person driving the car is a driver. What is with this cockpit/pilot thing with cars?

I have an estimated late June build with an August 5th statedside ETA and I was thinking this had to be close to the end. Can't imagine cars coming in October still, let alone after that, but maybe. Market dependent maybe?

its a personal expectation and decision, I personally tell myself I should respect individuality of a person. its simple. someone prefers to read the time off a 10$ digital watch and someone prefers to read it off a 30,000$ gold watch. yes both tells time, but its a person's individuality thats shows and I need to respect that rather that belittle it.

leather dash for me give me a sense of accomplishment, these cars a lot of times are milestone acquisitions and the leather dash adds a sense of polish to the whole thing.

cheers,

I agree completely.

I for one do not want the same rubber interior in my 150K car that is in my 30K Honda. In my Honda it is an upgrade from hard plastic found in 20K cars, in a 911 it is a downgrade from the leather found in 100+K cars.

same here, and my build was accepted on 5/24. I will be making some changes, I am curious as to how this may affect these "estimated dates"

chalk in Las Vegas is ubiquitous, non 911s and other manufacturers, I went with ice grey metallic
