The ultimate T spec. for less than £90k ,keeping it simple and remaining to the ethos of the car! IMHO you can over spec. this car with too many frilly bits making it overpriced. I also cannot see a premium with this car as its not limited and anyone who wants one can buy at list! But a great car if in the market for a new vanilla 911!

This was my view also at first.
But in my opinion unless you are specking to a price target. By not going with likes off CCBDs and RWS, just leaving so much on the table of what makes a 991 a brilliant car.

Also does not need to be a ltd car in order to be a premium. Just more demand than supply.....

Most OPCs have now closed their order books.

As a guide a 3 year old 10k mile 911 Anniverary 50th edition recently sold at ap
£125k at Romans.

Agree on the simple ethos mines well under £90k with just the T pack.

Partly - yellow t interior and PCCB's here! Exterior colour is a youtube clickbait surprise.

What's the thoughts on Bose? Is it worth getting?

Currently on my GT4 I hardly ever put any music on.

It will be lovely. Just a couple of questions if I may as I am trying to get a spec in today:

What is the T exterior design pack and I was under the impression that Leather dash was standard for the UK market?

I missed it off my spec' list above, but I've gone for Bose in mine - I had it in the GT4 and used it on longer journeys. I think it makes a difference and I like it; I also think at resale some prospective buyers might look for it.

Had it on my 981 GTS and I wouldn't bother again. I use TV logic: I want a nice one in my house, but on the train I'm happy to watch netflix at lower res on my phone.

Thanks. When I specced up my GT4, Bose wasn't an option. I think the option was 'sound package plus'

T Exterior Design Pack is the deeper front splitter and the rear wing tweak (slight lip on the trailing edge).

The leather dash is standard I think on 'normal' UK cars, so it might just be a few extra bits covered in leather...The configurator isn't clear, but given the 'stripped back' nature I wanted to make sure I didn't end up with a plastic dash!

I think you are right (just like the GT3) - I ticked the box anyway and didn't regret it!

I think I'm ready. The only item that I might not go with are the PCCB brakes.

Anyone else gone for the same colour/wheel combo?

If I was to buy one, new or used, it would be for regular fun, mainly road use, and perhaps the occasional venture on track.

But, I'd definitely want the pccbs, light glass, no rear seats, etc and minimal driver aids or superfluous stuff. And, probably a 'sporting' paint colour

I think its raison d'etre is in its purity, simplicity and relative weight saving. Models specd as such, I believe will be the most sought after in the future and will best hold their value or command a premium.

The T exterior will be the Sport Design package with Front apron and rear lip



And the leather dash will be the ‘Dashboard trim package in Leather’ I think
