Yes, the diamond cut version of the wheels looks much, much better IMO than the all-black one. I intend to have my wheels diamond-cut when I get my car in April. Cheap to do, and looks the business thumbup
I will let the missus kerb the wheel first!

Another thumbs up for diamond cut finishing to the GTS wheels. Dealer quoted £480 Inc VAT to include their wheel refinishing specialist changing the satin finish to black gloss same as Turbo S. Thought I was the only one who didn't like the all black wheels.
Did toy with the idea of colour changing to neodyme with or without the diamond cut faces.
Car is agate, arrives March - still time to ponder!

Cheers
My plan was to go PTS and Aurum Spyder Alloys but now I am thinking Diamond cut Turbo centre locks could look great too

Good job on the photoshop there, but I prefer the black wheels. Each to their own though.

I was thinking the same. And once she’s done it again; I’ll get them painted black again!

Those wheels are exactly what I want - going for GT Silver and don't like the all black look. This has made up my mind... although mine's not due until end Q4 earliest!

I enjoyed watching this group opine and agonize over their car specification, color combinations and performance features.

I’ve spent the best part of 2 months figuring out the same. I’ve finally reached a conclusion. My build will be:

PNUDCQW2

It’s due to have the build completed by April 29th and all being well my plan is to pick it up from Leipzig. I’m excited for those who have already received their cars and for those like me are still waiting.

Nice spec
Interesting that you get
Premium Package
Illuminated Lateral Gills on Taillights
I don't think I have seen any of these on the UK configurator
DO you not get the rev counter in chalk with the chalk GTS interior ?

I thin collecting for Germany will be awesome but where do you go to get it shipped over to the States and how do you get home ?

Yes you do get the chalk tacho with the GTS package. Maybe it’s not called out in the summary but it’s included as you can see from this picture.

Car will get returned to either Zuffenhausen or Leipzig and then Porsche ship to my dealer in the USA. Hoping Covid doesn’t screw it all up, fingers crossed.

Just dropped my 992.1 GTS off for some service work at OPC Leeds, and am working for a couple of hours from there whilst they do the work.

They have an Agate Grey Targa GTS 992 in the showroom, and it looks aweseome. Hoping to get a look around soon as not seen one in the flesh before and only locked in my spec this time last week for an April delivery, so still have time to make changes if I want to.

Post some pics up buddy of the Targa. Sure that counts as 'work' wink
