Thanks for all the recommendations.

I ended up closing with a dealer in the NE. They had the car I wanted. Walked in, got a great deal. Did a lot of research (atleast 8-10hrs worth) to find the right spec car.

I went with the 911 Turbo S.

White on Black/Carbon Trim

White contrast stitching just about everywhere.. seats, dashboard, doors, armrest, back of the seats.

Leather on the back of the front seats. Seat heat and cooling. Entry and drive, light design package, park assist with camera. Glass sunroof, power steering plus, burmester sound system, 911 logo on center armrest.

I wish it had the Porsche crest on headrests and the illuminated door sills in aluminum. I didn't want the power steering plus. But in the end I was okay with the specs. First car I ever purchased that I didn't build myself.. I needed one on the ground or on the boat.

Does anyone know what the Ornamental Porsche Crest option is? My 911 has it, but I noticed others did not (I did a lot of online inventory searching). It can't be the Porsche crest on the hood..

So it has all the major options. Unfortunately it's missing the illuminated door sills and the Porsche crest on the headrests. First car ever purchased that I didn't custom order.. didn't have the time to wait.

Its gonna be amazing--- did you get the Turbo S Centerlocks? Not all S models come with it. As for the Crest part- its ZAB on the order and its the badge on your hood. On some builds its not listed since its a factory part but I had it listed on my 991 C4S as well as my 991 TT-S. Im not sure why they do that as I have yet to see a P car without the hood (Frunk) badge

It's Porsche's version of the Trans Am Sreamin' Chicken!

Car sounds spectacular. Can't wait to see pictures! Best of luck and enjoy.

@Vic55 Yeah, I'm looking forward to taking delivery.. it really is a great car.

I actually prefer the 911 Turbo wheels, but I got the 911 Turbo S wheels because I noticed only the TS wheels had the Porsche center locks. You sure not all 911 TS with the 911 TS (P40 style) wheels have the center locks?

Hopefully mine has the center locks.. if not maybe it can be ordered. They look cool.. probably are a bitch to remove though. Oh well.

Only the Turbo S wheels (mesh P40 style) are center locks... but I have seen a few S cars with the Non S wheels. Those cars have the 5x130 bolt pattern. When you build your car on the Porsche site you choose either wheel on the S model for no added cost. I guess since Im getting aftermarket wheels I could have gone with either or but I also just found my car on the ground and grabbed it with what it had. Do take note that not a lot of wheel places have a tq wrench that will meet the minimum centerlock tq specs.
