Thanks, I am very much looking forward to it. The reviews are indeed great, saying it almost feels like a daily drive-able GT2. It is those reviews that got me into it as I was originally looking at 992-S.
Short answer: 25k USD and PCCB
Long answer: I've gone back and forth between the base and S multiple times. There is much less difference between the base and the S on the 992 than there was on the 991. It's basically the same engine just with a different tune and 2mm larger compressors on the turbos, and you can add all the options to a base that are standard on the S (doing so would be stupid though, might as well get the S at that point
). So from a chassis perspective, the way I am speccing, I am getting the same car and I figure 580hp should be plenty for my use. Also, since I intend to track it fairly frequently, PCCB are a no go. So I would need to buy aftermarket iron rotors right off the bat if I were to get an S. And last but not least, it gives me something to move up to after the warranty expires
.
You'll need more than a glass for the configurator, speccing Porsche options is bottomless pit
