I put mine in WBAC just to see and was offered 62k. 6500 miles, PDK (I know) Black, grey T interior and no rear seats.

Edited by Joscal on Thursday 2nd February 06:48
I put my sold one in out of curiosity- manual, it came back at 59k odd.
WBAC probably favour pdk, not being into the detail of Porsche specs.

The salesman in my OPC told me nobody wants manual anymore and they far prefer PDKs. I’ve known him for 25 years and he’s not a wide boy and has no reason to spoof.

I’m sure in the future manuals will be worth a lot more though.

What did you get offered can I ask

I see a 911 992 carrera s 22 reg on auto trader silver at 108,5
How flexible do you think they are on a car
Thanks
Varies from dealer to dealer. Think it was 72k offered in part ex for a 992 T. I decided not to go for it as 991 T has attributes I like.

Is there a way to.option leather seat centres to the 992T, not clear if the exclusive coloured stitching includes it?

If not do the t interiors include coloured belts as they appear on the configurator but not in the description.

How come the 992 T doesn't have option for buckets? seems odd to me that.

Keep up at the back…

Supply chain shortages and they are keeping what they have for the premium models

Same as PCCB’s

Thats still a thing is it. Ok, good to know, thanks.
Are people that want buckets compromising or waiting it out? if such a situation, surely best to wait it out.

If they ask me to lock without buckets on the options list it’ll be a hard pass from me… until they are

I'm not 100% but I think if you opt for seat ventilation then the 4 or 18 way seat centres will be leather.

Good to know it's not just me that is desperate for them to add the buckets to the configurator. My build is likely to lock at the end of March so keeping fingers crossed the situation changes.

Quick question as locking spec as I've been fortunate enough to get an allocation

Trying to choose between

GT Silver or Guards Red
(had gentian on a prior car and found it too difficult and wife has vetoed black)

and

Manual vs PDK
(heart says manual but PDK is supposedly almost a second faster to 60 and in greater demand, dealer suggested they have a manual GTS which hasn't had much interest)

Thanks to the advice earlier i've been able to add leather seats in lieu of cloth. Still prefer buckets - but presume nobody knows a date?

Thoughts?

you'd go ahead with the order even if buckets are not available, yet you want buckets... why not wait it out for what you ultimately want?

I think perhaps less essential on this, I did turn down an April build slot for a gt4 as I felt that does need buckets.

Back to other q’s red vs silver, pdk vs manual?

Congrats on your allocation, when’s the car coming?

Interesting questions, had the same thought process and questions myself back in December. I’ve recently had two Manual GT4s but have gone PDK this time. Reasons are three fold:
1. It’s a daily
2. My better half will be driving it on occasion
3. (More subjective) possibly easier short term resale.

Re colour, clearly massively subjective, me I went Guards, mostly because I just prefer it (and loads of other new Ts seem to be going silver). Both are desireable colours in my eyes anyway.

April build, so May approx. Did you option in back seats? Which trim did you end up selecting?

Yes I threw the seats back in - they were free after all and I’m Scottish wink. Standard interior, Having read and watched the various reviews I Came to the conclusion I’d rather spend the money on rear steer than some contrast stitching!

I thought you were getting a GTS finmac, or are you getting a GTS as well as a T? In which case, lucky you smile

I am actually wink. Speaking to my OPC I suspect the GTS might arrive by summer, who knows mind you!
