i wouldn`t need the Bose and i would add:

PASM

- 10mm lowered (looks and performs better)
- more aerodynamic front lip
- further extension of the new rear wing
--> glued to the road


Sport Chrono Package

- engine mounts (GT3 trademark)
- faster PDK gear shifts
- sharper throttle response
- launch control
--> faster + more emotion

yes, that´s the reason why i posted PASM first and SC 2nd, PASM would be my first choice of options to add, cause the new version is even more improved and makes the car a different animal when activated and driven harder.

If you are not really into the Launch Control stuff the SC is a questionable option.

...but everyone says that w/out SC you are kind of gimped on resale.

that´s definitely the case with the S, not sure if it´s that all important on a non-S. It´s great to have SC, no doubt but the standard Sport button on the Base 991 provides some fun already (sharper throttle response and PDK settings). so if LC does nothing for you or you don`t push the car hard anyway and want to save some money...

Hippocampus is on a distinguished road
Congrats. FYI model designation 911 means the rear deck lid has P O R S C H E above the 911. I thought that it only had 911 which is what i preferred, but no.

No full leather? I personally think any car at this price point should have full leather. Have not seen how the 991 comes factory, but the 997 dash is hideous with that soft rubber. All personal preferences.

Get the Burmeister stereo. Nothing like listening to a nice jazz tune (if you like jazz) while taking a road trip. It's a small car so I'd do without the park assist.

Where are you located?

(SA = Saudi Arabia?)

If so, wouldn't ventilated seats nice?

And how about Porsche entry & drive?

Might be too late - but ditch Park assist - It's similar price as a sunroof and the new roof is quite svelte.
