Thanks! The black gloss wheel paint option is not offered on the RS Spyder wheels as a factory option on the 4S (not sure if this is maybe just here in Australia). The local dealer arranged it for me once the car arrived.
Day finally arrived. After months of spec stress then months of anticipation, finally picked it up today. Thanks to everyone on the forum for feedback during spec!
Honestly couldn't be happier. Was most stressed about after market painting of wheels gloss black but am stolked with the...
Yeah thanks for the response, and yes an interesting time. I've been monitoring the whole value topic, particularly the Taycan and facelift considerations. I've come to accept that I will be making a loss - I do think we've forgotten about cars and values through COVID and we are getting back...
Hi all!
After a longish 7 month wait and tracking my car half way around the world, my pick up is now scheduled for this Wednesday (2 days!!).
Thanks for all the feedback during the spec phase.
Just wanted to see if anyone has any tips for pick up day? Anything in particular to look out...
Yeah I just got back from Hawaii where we hired a mustang and it had the ventilated seats. I didn't realise how 'cool' they are (excuse the pun). So happy it has them now....
I was of the opinion that the 18way seats don't have an option to get the ventilated seats. I have a 4S on order with the 18 way seats, and just set up my Porsche connect account. When I look at the options for the car it lists front ventilated seats?
Is this the case with the 18way seats on...
Hey everyone,
I have an ice grey 4S on order that's just finished production. Hopefully will pick up late this year or very early 24.
I've specced the 21 RS Spyder wheels. Seen some pics of those on the ice grey and they look good but im not that wowed. Perhaps in person they will be...
Hi everyone,
First things first, this forum and the general engagement is awesome. Lots of these types of forums these days get toxic at times but support and advice here and sharing of info is brilliant.
I posted recently re final spec and the feedback I got really helped to finalise.
So...
I am at exactly the same point as you. IG 4S and finalised spec last weekend. My issue was having not seen the combo in person. I went to dealer on weekend and was lucky to see a Turbo S being delivered on Ice Grey with the whit
I was in exactly the same position as you and finalised my spec...
Thanks for the response. The aluminium door treads, bose and air suspension are all standard on the 4S here in Oz.
Interesting comment re the B Pillar - had never considered that and will look into it.
Local Porsche centre gave me a 4S for a weekend with the sport sound and whilst gimmicky, I...
Hi all,
Have a 4S ordered and freeze date is approaching. Have been playing with options and initially was thinking pretty low spec but have got to the mode where am thinking if spending so much, an option I 'want' to have should be ok, as I might regret it later - but then these all add up...
Thanks everyone. Wow I must say the level of engagement and input on this forum is pretty awesome! Lots of support for the GTS but at this point I think ill lean toward the new 4S. The GTS is not at a Porsche dealer so not Certified so a little uncomfortable re this. In addition, the colour...
Thanks for the response, specs:
New 4S
Ice grey, 21 Spyder wheels, Black/Crayon leather, 18 way seats, 4+1, Window trims in black, Rear logo in black, Chrono, Pano roof, Sport Sound, Ambient lighting, Elec charge cover, Passenger display and considering real axle steering (crap when I write it...
Hi everyone.
First post here. From Sydney, Australia and have ordered a new 4S due early Jan. Freeze date coming late next month and doing the usual crazy research on options. In the meantime, I've found a used 1 year old GTS with 5.5k km's. Descent spec in Crayon (my order would be Ice...
