Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

£73k fingers crossed on steering feel and gearing other wise it's for sale lol

I'm booked on 20/July. I doubt I'm the first.
The PEC car from what they know is RHD and will have Sport Chrono. They expect it to be highly spec'd but they are only getting a single car.

For those of you who have done so, what is the reason for ignoring the free upgrade to the larger fuel tank? (or is it simply the case that you have ordered it but not bothered mentioning it, as it's not that important / exciting?!)
64l is hardly massive, given the performance and likely fuel consumption from the engine, and the extra range could be really useful! I was frustrated that the 90l tank was not available on the RHD 991 GT3.

Edited by sidicks on Saturday 2nd May 20:43
are you saying there is a 90L tank option for RHD GT4?
regards the GT3, 90L option has never been offered on RHD, only Euro Spec LHD.

I assumed that if you didn't tick the box for the (optional?) 64l tank you'd end up with a smaller one?!
keep it lit said:

I know, but it was mentioned in the early UK brochures, so I was hoping it was available (given I frequently do 300+ mile trips).
Edited by sidicks on Saturday 2nd May 20:52
wouldn't call 55 - 64 an upgrade, more like and extra mug full.... still I agree that is a poor size tank for a track car.
because your RHD GT3 is a 'conversion' in regards of steering column position, you end up with the poxy tank.. only the Euro spec cars (not even the US LHD) get the original large design 90L tanks, which are super handy for the Ring and cross Europe adventures!

Are you sure? Carrera White Metallic is on permanent stop order isn't it?
On the dealer config screen ordering restrictions on certain colours (incl. Carr
a
ra White) were shown together with dates, but apparently my build date is beyond the relevant period so the ordering restriction didn't apply. We'll see, but November is a long time away and Carrara white is not an exclusive colour for the GT4; I guess Porsche are backing themselves to have resolved their supply problem by then.
Hello - I'm invited in to fix the spec on mine tomorrow.
Whilst I enjoyed sitting in the GT4/918 bucket seats in Geneva I'd appreciate it if anyone could let me know if it would be a mistake not to specify them.
Do we either go :
1. White club sport car with with cage buckets maybe no sat nav as a focused fast road car
Or
2..nicer daily driver, not white, with sat nav leather sport seats and the sound pack thing?
Is it possible to spec the car badly so that it would be hard to sell after my 3 years in it? Or do they (GT3 type cars) all eventually sell?
I will take the big tank and smokers pack. Do we get free carpet mats?
Thank you for the help.

Surely the answer to this will be answered by the expected use for the car.
If it is not a daily driver but used for fun/track days then 1.
If used as a daily car, maybe in heavy traffic, not used on track then 2.
Pretty sure there will be a market for both in three years. Which will sell easier is a matter of opinion. Mine is going to be pretty basic mainly used as a weekend toy and track car. GT3 Clubsports indicate that there will be a used market for this spec, especially if most people go the luxurious route.
ratcatcher2 said:
Thank you that is helpful. Mine will be weekends only with no track use probably 1000 miles per year.
Crikey, it will take you a couple of years just to break in the engine at that mileage!

Cool. I just want a special car for the odd drive. I ran a really clean 996C4S with similar tiny mileage and in showroom condition and loved it.
Thanks for the input. Think I will stick with buckets having seen what spec people look for on Caymen R's.
1000 miles is 20 miles a week though not enough to warm the oil and will take 5 years to free up that engine lol.
A trip to Spa is more than a 1000 miles. or even 1 trip to Scotland. !
I can see people doing circa 3k PA at a push, but 1k don't seem worth owning it.
As others have said though ,your car.
I do about 2.5k PA in the Spyder and I feel it never goes out even at 2.5k miles.

£9,583 extras, thought about the PCCB but couldn't quite bring myself to add them.
Will be used for Euro trips and the odd track day.
Averaged about 3k per annum in my current Spyder, GT4 will be the same I guess.
Interesting what others have specc'd
Expected sept / oct delivery, although am expecting a delay w the buckets.
Finding this thread quite interesting.
I'm on the bubble and have to wait and see what if any cars will be coming in 2016. I have a Spec but obviously can play around in Fantasy land as much as I like at the moment.
I'd be quite frustrated by the current delay on the buckets but maybe I'll benefit from the full colour choice or PTS if I am lucky in 2016!
Nice spec's guys!
Few Q's -
1/ does VTS come as standard?
2/ What do standard headlights look like? I won't be driving it in the dark so couldn't give a to55 about Bi-Xenon's.. but i do want black (or dark grey) cases. £477 a lot of wonga!
3/ Do i need 'Door Trim Package' @ £324.00 to get fluffy bits on me doors?
4/ Are floor mats REALLY £215?? I could carpet a house for less than that!
5/ Where are the Porsche decals? Are they 'aftermarket'?

Based on the previous thread about 'Porsche Trackers', it would appear it's standard on 911's but not Caymans.

Depending on your exterior colour, the dark headlights look good.

This is getting more interesting.
Since a GT4 is not fitted with a tracker as standard
it's an extremely dubious legal position that Porsche are adopting if they refuse to honour a warranty claim on another part if an aftermarket tracker has been fitted.

I do not believe that is correct. I have read that the standard lights on the GT4 have the dark lenses but the bulbs are not as powerful as on the dynamic light option. Visually I don't think there is much difference when looking at the car.

thats part of the leather interior package I have already specced isnt it ? Certainly looks like it on the configurator.
mmmmm, you might be right re headlights. That pic was from a GTS - which i thought would be same.
Franki - i *think* you have to spec the 'door package' to get Alcantara. I need to check this.

Let me know if you do check it,but looking at the picture on my configuration it does look leather and alacantra on the doors,the contrasting stitching is certainly on the doors and you can only order it with the extended leather pack (I assume the stitching is into the leather)
Agate Grey
Platinium Rims
918 sport seats
Bi Xenon PDLS Black Lights
Rain Sensor
64L fuel tank
Sport Chrono + app integration

I think that's it, for 130€ seems quite expensive but now that im looking at it looks to have quite a few extras on it! Im going to use it as a daily driver hopefully
Also hoping to have it delivered this week .D

Oops. On Monday I fixed the following:
Black (stitching in Platinum Grey) Leather Interior. code 78 £1,344
And from the Interior Alcantara
Door trim package in leather/alcantara | Exclusive. Code CLP £324
I should delete the Door Trim Package? I did it to ensure I had little/no plastic on show. Appreciate the help I've only ever bought used Porsches so this is new to me.

I'm in the same position . I've ordered it but 90% sure it's not required after reading all the recent posts . Can anyone confirm 100% that you get the bulk of the door alcantara without this option .
Also I'm currently interior trim painted ( as all my previous GT's and R,s have been) It doesn't seem to be getting a lot of love these days (white) . Thinking of changing to anthercite brushed aluminium ? Thoughts .......

I've gone with Carbon but leather on the central console, big fan of carbon over here
- However, I sat in a new 911 GTS with the anthracite aluminium trim the other day and it looked really nice, I am tempted...
Here's mine.
http://www.porsche.com/microsite/porsche-code/defa...
Will be collected and straight to be wrapped in Mexico blue.
Only bit I may change is wheel colour to black and add telephone prep.
Not to bothered with sat nav etc as I find a never ever use it in current or previous cars.

- However, I sat in a new 911 GTS with the anthracite aluminium trim the other day and it looked really nice, I am tempted...
I've gone for the anthracite having seen it in a GTS also...

Prefer the brighter solid white personally.... Each to their own! ;-)
Well as we're all sharing here's mine - may add the leather/deviating stitching in yellow depending on how i feel when finally locking it down

Re the discussion the the white - the new metallic white appears a lot whiter than the flat one - having parked my Spyder next to a friends new GTS mine looked quite creamy...

going to dealers tomorrow to look at a boxster in dark blue metallic, then confirm the colour
I was going to go for dark blue until I saw a 991 GT3 in that colour, I felt it was too dull and didn't contrast well with the black features.

I like the fact the black features become more discrete, but colour still a good contrast to the platinum finished wheels
Re: Dark blue Metallic - I've ordered it. The thinking man's colour. Or so I thought, but having second thoughts...
There are a few pics on the GT4 Colours thread but they are non-distinct and a couple on the GTS thread. It's definitely not a popular choice.
I've just seen a few GT2s pictured in DBM on the personalised number plate thread as well. I may go over to the dark side - black / satin black but I'd like to see some proper GT4 DBM pics first to help make a decision, so do please share.

My GT4 has a completion date of 23rd June, not showing any delay for the buckets... yet....
Got a feeling the delay applies to cars with July builds onwards.Im going to check with my dealer as you're the second person on here with a June build with buckets and no delay.
Here's mine. £75K is a bit spendy but I have high hopes that I'm going to love this car and keep it for a very long time.

no need to order any extra leather or alcantara after the £1300 option bar the £800 if you want red/yellow stiching over the free silver.
Yep.
So chaps , what actually do you get for the door trim pack . ?
A few leather bits and bobs and Sport Chrono added. I think Sport Chrono is a waste of money but my partner likes the look of the clock on the dash!

If it was a clock that would be great, but it's not.
Heres mine.

It will have some form of decal on it as well. But probably after it's had paint protection film on it.
Unless you can put PPF over the top of decals? Anyone know if that is possible or advisable?

What car you selling to buy ? Or keeping all 3 ? Did not think you had a slot,
its amazing what people tick on cars, I keep thinking I must be mad to tick a £800 stitching option
I would not spend £800 that easy on any thing else. In fact I am a tight bugger.
