I have very quickly got to over £100k on the configurator for a car that only just matches the spec of my turbo S without the uumph or turbo looks...........seems a bit pricy to me although looks very good on line visually. I hope the turbo has a sports exhaust option!
Likewise speccing my "ideal 991 C2S" very quickly ran up to about £107k......... ouch. Nice car in the spec mind.......
20" wheels are standard on the S, so no saving on standard. The Carrera Classic version I've ordered is a £728 option but I think look rather splendid.
So £2.5k off but still over £90k!!![
Rear centre tunnel in leather
if this is the bit between the rear seats, it's already leather in standard trim. I think the option provides no additional leather, just contrast stitching

Great spec Peter, I do like the look of the sunroof, couldn't have one without (apparently [&:] according to my wife)
No sunroof in the 458 and I was onto a loser...... but the spider!!

Yup, & look at 458 residuals. I have lost more on Porsches since 2005 than the cost of a Spider. See you all at Chateau Impney?

Yes, sure you're right. I'll look at the launch cars and maybe delete that if it's not necessary. As I understand it, the option extends right the way up the centre console as well.

PS This could mean a new Turbo s is in £150K money and an RS 160K money....as good as there are I will then be forced to also look at Ferrari, in another year a 458 will be down to £170K ish TUT TUT

Thats my worry too... that the new Turbo version could be as you say used Califonia money or even 458 money- with their much stronger residuals.ORIGINAL: mnk303
makes me wonder what the new one will be?

Provided you don't drive it very much. If you do watch out
