LWBs, standard (non black wheels), FAL (if available). CF roof if an option, Bose/Burmester.

7 speed manual — i don’t know about any of the interior stuff.

I’m still very much appreciating my Carrera T. Just going to enjoy the car while we see what shakes out with the 992.2’s. I’m sure it will all be incremental, bud. But the 992 base engine is probably a fair bit stronger than the 991.2 base engine. So still worth the upgrade.

Gulf Blue is PTS which is totally sold out for MY24 992 production. I have never been a fan of Gulf Blue and definitely would not be interested in it for $13k.

I have to say, there is a world where years down the road, a 992 Turbo S could find a way in my garage. It's one of many parallel universes. I don't hate the idea. Even the new, heavier one might be ok. I wouldn't get a Turbo for the dynamics. Which is why there's yet another world in which a GT3 is in my garage down the road.

Point is, if you are going down the stupid-fast fat-pig road, it's ok to drive a little farther as long as you don't stray from the trendline in a negative way.

Honestly, if I was going to daily at 992, a Turbo would be my preference since it is only available with a PDK.

(That is a nice config for the 992 Carrera S —I love that interior option)

Can you educate me on what the 3D Printed Body form seats are? And how are these different from LWBs?
