Be interesting to see if the cage and harness is free as per the 991, or whether, like the GT4 it will be £3k or more.
The other one is the gearbox. Parity on price or more for the PDK S?
Colours were particularly poor imo for the 991.....so went white. Wonder if the 'fashion grey' and latest blue grey on the 718 will be available. Also feel the Sapphire blue needs a rehash as it looks ok from a distance but close up is a bit disappointing.

I expect the PDK-S will be standard so all the official figures will be based on this and the manual will be a no cost option.The other one is the gearbox. Parity on price or more for the PDK S?

Yes, if the car is £104k, £130k or just under looks about right.Mine would be ...

Good spec, but I would go steels, titanium wheels and no cruise.

The GT3.1 was £105k, so yes 110 to 112k its got to be..If this is the last N/A prices will go crazy north for those flippers..
As I'm an anorak I can tell you that the 991.1 gt3 was £100,540 base before extras. Going by the 991.2 GTS increase I reckon 105,000 or there abouts.

I think that it will be the perfect daily driver. Mine would be a clubsport. Nothing else, just a clubsport, oh and some carpets.
If I get offered a allocation that really is going to be a difficult choice for me..I love my 18 way adaptive sports seats, really do the job well...My spec will be...
PTS paint - Mexico Blue or Ultra Violet (if available)
Manual gearbox
Club sport package
Sport chrono
918 seats
Axle lift
Full leather with contrasting yellow stitching
PCCB
Carbon interior
LED lights in black
Yellow belts
PCM with Sound system plus
Telephone module or whatever its called to connect your phone by Bluetooth
DAB
Cruise control
Climate control
Hoping for an early build slot - keeping everything crossed
Anyone else going to Geneva to check it out??

After living with the Sports buckets for 2.5 years and 10,000 miles, there's no way I would consider anything else on a GT3 or similar car.sidicks said:

Even in Clubsport spec the 991 GT3 is a practical daily driver - unless you need to use the rear space. They are such a nice practical proposition for drivers from most spectrum. If you prefer maximum involvement at times - like I do - then a nice 996/997GT3 or aircooled in your garage as well and you have all that you will ever need... Providing you have a 2 or more car garage.

Thanks, Steve. Do not need the storage. Probably Clubsport then...Do the 918 seats have adjustable back rest?..Cheib said:
What about Comfort with Buckets ? It's the Buckets that people really want isn't it ?!
Yes and no.FWIW, my car is a Comfort with buckets and for me that is perfect for road use, but anyone who wants the car for tracking will probably want the half cage.
I probably should have specced a Club Sport and asked the OPC not to fit the cage, so at least the mounting points were there for a future owner.
