Review my Turbo build

[timc3]

It's getting to the time where I need to decide the spec for a Turbo CT.

Gone for crayon as it's the colour I have liked the most that I have seen in the flesh, and to contrast it a Bordeaux interior, though I also really like Crayon though the dealer thinks I should go for a contrast. But should I have the accent package with Bordeaux?

I decided to try the 21" exclusive wheels painted in black, not a combination I think I have seen anyone have with Crayon? At least they come with the coloured centre caps.

Passenger display and sound is basically because I like them and I think it makes the Taycan even more unique as a car. Anything else I have missed?

Ice Grey ?, It is great in Nordics. Black door handles cut the line, so I would not pick them. Massage seats for me, but only with 14-way seat. Hälsningar från Finland till Sverige, vi slår er i ishockey I OS ?

Just opened your configuration. Crayon in combination with the 21" exclusive wheels in black looks great but I think it would even look better with 4 wheels ? ? ?

Yeah I am 50/50 on the black door handles, having only seen them in videos and photos but I do like them. I didn't find the 14-way seats that comfortable, but the 18-way really worked for me. And well done in the Ice Hockey!

I vote for the red interior - looks amazing with chalk!

Oh man, porsche is over the top now, charging by the wheel. Didn't tick all 4 options I see.

I've chosen the black & red interior, and explored in the configurator all the constrasting interior finishes (door trims, seatbelts, trim packages)- and decided that each made it look too busy for my tastes (partly due to the visibility of my Frozen Blue mirrors).

Anything else I have missed?

Have you considered the option to extend the Race-Tex to lower down the B-pillars? Some people (myself included) think it wears better from contact by people getting in and out of the front seats- though others think it will wear worse than the standard plastic.

Beautiful specs...very close to mine. I think if you want it to look clean, chalk door handles, if you want sporty then black handles.

Yeah, I seem to be coming to a similar conclusion with Black&Red - which is great because it saves some money. I think if I want another color I would end up going with different seat belts, accent pack, perhaps even trim and I want a sporty feed to it. And if I went completely black I probably would really want coloured stitching as well!

I have been considering it, but is it worth the extra? but it's something that could make a nice difference to the interior I agree.

Thanks! I am trying to go with a more sporty look (I initially wanted a 992 but felt weird buying a brand new petrol car in 2022 as my main car).

Received the car yesterday - made a few changes to the final spec but I am loving it soon.

Hopefully I can take some decent pictures soon.
