I added the power steering plus, because while test driving back to back in parking areas, it did feel more luxurious and that's my goal to make it a bit more comfortable.

Nice build.
Not sure the Burmester system is really needed in a cab, especially with Sport Exhaust. Power steering plus does not make a big difference (but is very cheap).
I would personally add the Sport Chrono package.
PDCC is nice too, but not a must have. Your color combo is nice, but the red seatbelts may be a little bit too contrasted.

Just a few personal thoughts! You've picked the right car, you can not go wrong anyway

Exact color combo of my 981BS. It's lovely, IMO.
Did you sit in the 18 way seats? I strongly preferred the 14s for my body type.
Voice control?
No experience but also wonder if premium stereo worth it in a cab with extra loud exhaust? I guess it couldn't hurt. I'm underwhelmed with the BOSE in my car, but it's a roadster and not really that quiet with the top up. Are the 991 cab tops quieter?

Many option still unchecked

Serious mode on, code 581 luggage net, I've seen one in new cayman (not sure if it is in different material/specs than in 991), the net itself looks very loose as if been used for several years. Just something to double check in person.

Also nice to add pebble grey stitching combine with silver belt and white chrono dial (if chrono selected).

Agree entirely with SM_ATL's comments. Unless budget is no issue would also consider dropping 18 way seats for the 14's and put that money towards PDCC and sports chrono. Both are transformational.

Very nice build!

Choice of seats is very personal and really a matter of trying what suits you best. I prefer the 18-way above the 14-way, but I'm tiny. I can imagine that people that are bigger/taller, prefer the 14-way seats.

Burmester is very nice, but not sure if I would get it in a cab with PSE, athough I've ordered it, but mine is a coupe.

The red seatbelts are also a matter of taste. I personally agree with SM_ATL, it's a bit odd contrast for my taste. Silver or pebble stitching with silver seatbelts, like Pyramid says would be me choice, but I'm biased

In the end you should get what you like. It's your car, not ours haha. You can't go wrong. The build as it is now, is beautiful!

I have a cab with Burmester and Sport exhaust and this sound system even with the top down is spectacular. I think you should definitely keep it in your build.
Also I agree with the other comments you should definitely consider Sports Chrono.

Suzy always has sensible comments. I was 100% for red seat belts, but my wife, daughter and even SA discouraged it. I went with stock color belts. Still not sure on that. The Espresso is very rich on its own, though.
I wouldn't have a PDK without SC and would certainly order that before PSE. You can easily change to aftermarket exhaust but can't add wart on dash.
I love the ventilated seats!
You absolutely should sit in both seats. I could not get comfortable in the 18s and the 14s are the best fit of any seats I have owned.

Smile What am I in the mood for today....lol

Thanks for all the great comments, and they are dearly appreciated. It is so strange, because some days I can be all for a Speed yellow, BLk C2s and other's I am more conservative...

I have saved for a long time and want to get it right the first time. Not sure the wife would let me buy another $150k car when I'm not happy with my purchase.

Did any of you regret anything about your 911, or is it really that you just get used to whatever you buy, as far as options go...?

Like Suzy, I ordered mine with the 18 way seats. My car is still being built. I tried both the 18 way and the 14 way. At 6'2" and 180 pounds, the 18 way was more comfortable for me. My wife also preferred the 18 way.

Sport Chrono makes you fast to 60 mph. I would not skip it. As others have stated, you could always get aftermarket exhaust.

Personally I prefer the belts to be the same color as the exterior. Definitely comes down to personal preferences for that one.

Better sounds systems tend to define sound better. Would seem to me that better defined sound would be a strong point when you have the noise from the convertible top. I would keep the Burmester as well.

I have adaptive cruise control on my Jeep SRT8, and absolutely love it. Makes traveling in moderate traffic far less tedious. I definitely thought it would be worth the relative low cost to get it on my 911 as well.

Looks like you are ordering a beautiful car. I am sure you will enjoy it. Congratulations.

Joe

I've had my cab S for a year now, and I love e 18 way seats... Most comfortable seats I've had in any previous car ( CLK 55, S5, 335is, X5 4.8). I'm relatively thin, 6'O 175, and I do think that plays into that. I have Bose audio ( its okay, would do burmeister next) but I did do SC and PDCC and will definitely order those again.

Regrtets? None... My tastes keep evolving, would consider white dials and deviated stitching next.
