Finally picked my c2s Cabrio up this weekend. Last 911 I owned was a 997.1 - quantum leap. Worth the wait.

If that is Gentian then it's the same as my upcoming Cabrio including the same wheels..I've gone for the Sport tex with Crayon stitching inside and the Black hood.

My C4S arrives at the dealer tomorrow, RAS, PDCC, PCCB, Sports PASM etc. Should take delivery Fri/Sat, first impressions to follow.

Fantastic spec. May I ask what made you choose PDCC? Genuine question.

Had it before on a 991 turbo S and liked the flat cornering and increased composure. I also have a 991.2 T without PDCC or RAS and enjoy that too.

What an amazing spec you have there..Looking forward to reading your impressions especially as you've ticked all the performance options..
The 992 in whatever guise is an amazing car but is even more impressive when you really push it..Bit like a GT Porsche in that respect IMO.

Same reason I chose PDCC, I didn’t have it on my 991.1 Turbo but had it on the 991.2 Turbo S and thought there was a vast difference in ride quality and composure.

After an almost 2 month delay I am finally collecting my C4S this afternoon, spec is black/black (crayon stitch), RAS, PDCC, chrono, sports exhaust, Burmester, RS wheels, 18 way seats, glass roof, adaptive cruise plus a few other bits.

Can’t wait to have a 911 back in my life!

Spec sounds almost identical to mine. Please post some photos to keep me going to the weekend!

It’s actually midnight blue. Gentian is a bit lighter. Really liked that too. Spec is 18way sports seats (not sure really worth it as half the buttons I doubt I’ll ever use), sports exhaust, chrono, PDCC, rws (makes the turning circle like a taxi on top of other benefits...), adaptive cruise, front axle lift (some viscous speed bumps where I live), Bose as well as a few other bits

A passing looks particulary spectacular at nighttime.

I have an Aventurine Coupe and think its a stunning colour and you've chosen wisely on the Sport tex seats IMO.Personally i don't like the Aurum wheels with Aventurine and i went for the Carrera classic which suit the 992 IMO..You really need to add BOSE and automatic dipping mirrors for ease of resale as buyers expect them..
I would not get the Alcantara sports wheel personally and stick with the standard leather one which is exactly the same size but with smaller thumb grips, which don't obscure the outer dials so much..If going for this standard steering wheel add the heated option which is very nice on a Cabrio..
On the RAS and PDCC, neither of which i have on my Coupe or upcoming Cabrio its up to you, however based on the way my Coupe drives neither are a 'must have'..I really like the lowered sport PASM as the 992 looks better and i suspect improves the handling substantially..

Quick question for those with cars already. How’s the back seat room? Any bigger or even smaller? Kids are interested!

Also, current lead times on a 2S in the UK?

Cheers
I don't know if there's any more legroom, but I know my local dealer has said I can be in a car within 16 weeks of paying a deposit ATM, though I'm holding out until the manual box is available.

FINALLY arrived, today, at Guildford. Gentian Blue with Slate Grey / Crayon.

Such a step up from my last one (997.2 C2S Cab). Anyone know if you now get physical manuals?

Up to just under 250 Miles now in C2Ss Cab, after the coupe its everything I hoped it would be. Will keep this as daily until 992 Turbo S next year.
