Build feedback please…
 
Had a last minute opportunity to pivot to a Targa, and am going to do it.

Build feedback appreciated… mainly split on 2 tone… thanks!

Overall I like the build.
My tiny suggestions are as followed,
Consider Sportdesign sideskirts in matte black to continue with the matte black ground effects already throughout the car.
I'm a sucker for the Exterior mirror base in exterior color.
I just feel like it makes the car look more premium.
Steering wheel is currently in Alcantara, I'm in florida and this just gets all nasty and gunked up asap. Consider Heated GT sport steering wheel in leather for $0
Vanadium and the grey interior is gonna bring out more blue, so MAYBE black brakes instead of the red?

That's about it for styling...
Alot of customers of mine like surround view camera, I can take it or leave it, but it does look good.

I'm glad you skipped premium package, I can't stand the active cruise control box in the front bumper area.
Looks hideous.

Thank you. We are on the same page. Was planning to do black wrap on mirrors and door handles. And had surround view on 992.1 and did not use it and hated the box lol.

Consider PDCC on the Targa....

Just to help avoid confusion for others who are looking at surround view. I optioned only Surround View with Active Parking Support and Lane Change Assist (LCA). No Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). There is no large box at the front of the vehicle with the Surround View or LCA , only a small camera at the front and a small camera in each of side mirrors. I do not use the active parking feature, but the surround view is very helpful with improved image resolution.

I would suggest adding front axel lift.

Race Tex feels quite different for steering wheel, it’s a bit squishy and less firm. Suggest trying both. I prefer leather steering wheels personally.

I need surround view but that was already discussed above.

I would suggest:
— change brake calipers to black; the red looks out of place
— add Targa bar in Silver

I think your two-tone selection provides a lot of visual interest when compared to a one color interior.

Black calipers, Targa bar in silver

How about a key painted in VGM with a Slate Grey/Chalk leather key case?

Another combo that would look nice:
— red Targa top
— interior black/bordeaux red

P.S. - I probably spent 200 hours in total playing around with the Configurator for my Targa 4 GTS.

Make sure that you look at a Slate interior in person before locking your order, even if it’s on a different model. I thought that I wanted Slate until the dealer showed me a Taycan in that color.

Those seats are begging for you to add the 930 package. It really adds a visual pop that dresses up the interior.

Hadn't thought about 930 - thank you!

I saw the chalk/gray interior in person yesterday(on a guards car!) - it is darker in person than on the configurator, but I thought it looked gorgeous.

My wife has but two restrictions on my cars.... no blue cars, no red interiors. lol.

Personally, I’m over the black wheels. GT silver deserves more. Missing out on the matrix headlights. They work great after cording (see my other thread). Agree on side skirts.

you are lucky.

Consider adding the Porsche sub second clock-the second hand that just turns without purpose would drive me batty with the regular sport chrono clock.

FlyDL757 Oct 27, 2025 11:00 AM

I think code PTVKE7W9 will be the final product. Thank you for the feedback folks. Still have a week to play, but I think this ticks my boxes.

Turns without purpose? The second hand literally functions like the second hand on a wrist watch or wall clock.
