Default What is a good target $ amount for options

Hi all, I went V200 on a '24 Turbo a few weeks ago (June lock & October delivery). I'm doing the obligatory build out of 10+ different option packages. I'm curious to hear what folks think is a good target $ amount for options (Turbo or TTS). In my case, I know that I don't want the items associated with TTS (PCCBs and center locks). My option packages are ranging from $21K to $41K. Any thoughts/recommendations?
Thx. Very excited for the journey.

Have never heard of a target for options by dollar amount. Its obviously subjective to customer overall budget and personal preferences.

it does stand to reason though that if you dont want center locks and PCCB, you should get turbo.

None.

Just configure it the way it pleases you within the budget that is reasonable to you.

Naturally, if you want all the features that are standard on the TT-S but optional on the TT, the TT-S becomes a worthwhile consideration, however that does not seem to be your case. I went TT over TT-S because I specifically did not want PDCC and PCCB, I would have gladly taken the extra 70hp though.

Thanks both. I probably framed the question wrong.

I’m interested in what others spent on options for their TT/TTS so that I know if, by comparison, $20k is a “stripper” or $40k is insanely high. there was a great thread back in 2021 that showed average options added to each type of 911…but that’s 3 years old.

I can afford all the options if I want….but I also think it’s good (for me) to have some discipline here. I’m in my mid-40s so this probably isn’t going to be my last 911 (unless I decide that hybrid is a complete non-starter).

If you have the dollars, get whatever options you want? I don’t see the point focusing on anything else.

You can build these cars in several different fashions, sporty, classic. Lightweight/track. Etc.

I think there are certain things that I value in the options - the 18 way seats, Burmester, deviated stitching, extended leather, moonroof. I don't care about the driver aids. I'd take an extended range gas tank if it was offered

I have zero drivers aids and have never given it a second thought.

The upgraded headlights are nice if you drive at night.

Post up your code and we can take a peak.

Looks like you got the essentials. Congrats.

So..power folding mirrors are no longer standard on the TTS?

On the Turbo folding mirrors are not standard. Not sure about TTS.
