I am not averse to spending money, I just don't think there's a lot of bang for the buck in going for an S or some of the pricier options.

I mainly got the Bose for resale. Had Bose in my 987 and it really wasn't great, but the base audio was extremely poor.

I agree with you on pricier options. You'll get best bang for buck (value for money) with a base carerra slapping on just the PDK. Go for it by all means. I didn't mean to suggest anything but that I don't think bose is worth it. I believe they have improved the stock audio system in the 991s.

I thought the sport design steering wheel option costs $250. That is what my dealer has and the Porsche online configurator as well.

As is often the case prices change when you have PDK. It costs more. BTW, sport design steering is a good option if you prefer the looks. The batman steering, not too cool.

I see - the price for this option is different for PDK and manual transmission 991.

Forget the wiper as long as u don`t live in the mountains or in London!
The rear screen of 911s doesn't attract much spray.

P.S. better get Park Assist than a wiper!

Good spec, though I would consider adding Park Assist & Telephone module.
