Please share your thoughts on my preliminary build. Am I missing anything or anything I should remove?

I really want Shark Blue as the PTS which is over $11k. I need to keep the build around $184k at the most so I removed the deviated stitching in Speed Blue (which I really wanted) and a few other goodies.
Depending on allocation build dates, I'm shooting for a first half of 2022 delivery

Shark Blue

You can see how people can get carried away with options. To feed my mental illness, It would be a $217k spec



Update: confirmed Shark blue won't be available for Taycan. Mexico Blue will be the next color in line

He did - wheel stripe in blue. Don't forget the ~$25K added for the GT program. At least that's what I've been hearing.

I did it in gloss black to keep it uniform. IMO when color coding the wheels, it makes them look smaller, especially with the break in color due to the spokes.

If it were skinny color accent around, then I would do it like the GT3

Cool! Shark Blue is lighter than neptune blue I reckon?
I love the Neptune, but it looks different when not in a bright environment.
I like it in the right right, not as much in the dark.

I wanted to do the deviated stitching in Speed Blue which is Shark blue which would match the exterior.

Mexico blue and Rivera Blue are still on the table.
Voodoo is a hot color too but a bit too dark

I love cobalt blue. If PTS was available for 2021 I think I would have done it.

I love Cobalt too. My I-Pace is a darker blue so I wanted something lighter

Miami Blue is sexy! it has more of a turquoise hue to it, but its a color I would get

I'm going to the PEC in LA tomorrow to check out this wall of porn

Not sure how much you care about resale value, but Voodoo, Mexico and Riviera blue are all considered highly desirable colors in the Porsche world.

Mexico and Riviera look close enough that I would seriously consider one of these instead purely from the resale and history perspective.

Do a quick google search and you'll see plenty of PTS 911's in these colors.
