I really hope this is a configurator issue as I really don't want silver wing supports!
What's your most likely body colour choice? Checkout the German configurator - they are still on there, but they are automatically selected and you cannot de-select them now! If you try to deselect them it says "Deselection of the component is not possible because it is a basic option." (translation).
Arrrgggh - just been told that 887 - "Steering wheel 12 o-clock marker" is adding up to 4 weeks delay to build from Sept onwards...
4 weeks isn't much, but Im now tempted to remove it and swap back to P11 LWB instead of the P03 Folding Buckets I added due to the delays on P11.
You would think Porsche could manage their supply chain a little better than this!

When did the black wing supports disappear from the configurator. Likewise, a while ago, the CDR+ audio pack was described as including DAB radio. Not now. Will the colours change next, or maybe the engine/gearbox....??
Hi, to get Sat Nav, Bluetooth connection for your 'phone, and DAB radio, you have to specify PCM, Audio Upgrade,Telephone Preparation and the DAB module. Has always been the same as far as I am awareHas anyone any idea on which type of bucket seat allows the greatest seating height to be obtained as I like sitting as high as possible. I know the folding buckets are not height adjustable but they seem to be mounted a little off the floor compared to the LWBs which appear to be flush with the floor. I have sat in the folding buckets fitted to a Boxster GTS and they were ok but would like to spec the LWBs if possible.Anyone sat in both types?

LWBs have electric height adjustmentP155flaps said:
As per my feedback it's epic.
Steering feel brilliant, chassis sublime. The bad points are nit picking (designed in i.e long gearing, restricted engine) and don't detract from the fact it's an amazing car. Certainly the best thing I've driven for as long as I can remember and before I chose the GT4 looked at / drove F430, Gallado, V10 R8, Cayman R. Better than that lot, the old R by some margin in my opinion.
Great to hear it stands up to such competition, how did it feel compared to the F430 (I used to own a coupe manual), was it as raw and did it feel as special?Steering feel brilliant, chassis sublime.

LWBs adjust higher.jezd said:

Honestly for me not as special as an F430, the 'I'm driving an Ferrari' syndrome is hard to beat due to the noise mainly.But it was nicer to drive fast, will be able to handle much more abuse and much more compliant. It also felt a nicer place to be but still feeling raw enough at the same time.

I've got PTS, LWB and the 12 o'clock marker. I actually don't want my dealer phoning me because after the confirmation of build slot, every call has just been about another delay. 4 weeks isn't much, but Im now tempted to remove it and swap back to P11 LWB instead of the P03 Folding Buckets I added due to the delays on P11.

And they are managing their supply chain, by telling you that there is a delay, you're changing your order to speed up their production line.
