That would save me quite a bit by skipping the Sport Chrono and PSE. Could throw some CF bits in and still save if I skip these 2 items.

Decisions!

That was my alternate color....white. I don't have to lock until July 9 and my dealer has a white coming in soon so I can check it out and post.

Did you go standard or metallic white?

Love the build!

Thanks! This will be my first white car. Have always had red, silver or black. I think the current fleet of white Porsche race cars influenced my decision :-)) I went standard white as my dealer said the metallic is a muted/pearlescent. There was a white/red 911 Turbo S on the floor the day I placed my order and that locked it for me. Tried to get the 911 50th anniversary wheels on it, but couldn't. May have to do something stupid and buy them separate, b/c I think they'd look fantastic on the white Targa.

Not stupid. Necessary and ingenious lol. I agree though I think they would look great.

50th wheels on a Targa would look perfect.

I inquired at my dealership and this was not an option to do at the factory but if you can buy them as a separate order that would be sensational. Fuchs can also be had aftermarket. I suspect you could sell your standard wheels and make out ok.

Appreciate the thumbs up on the 50th wheels idea! My dealer is looking into it and I'll post the results. Can't wait to see the launch car next month!

I got it off another site!! I would have made it white or agate if I could photoshop that well :-)

Also consider looking at Sport Design wheels in black, or the Carrera S wheels in black on the configurator. Somewhat cheaper and the sport design has a good look I think. Not as retro as the Fuchs but still cool.

Nice find anyway! I did consider, and do like, the Sport Technos too but those 50th wheels seem to meld so nicely with the retro look of the new Targa.
