If you're referring to 992 C4s, then I have to agree. That's why I'm searching for 991.2 C2s...they're quite a bit lighter. And yes, I'm also searching for manual sport plus seats. It's going to take...

I stand corrected. They just shuffled things around in the exterior options list. It used to be near the top, and is now near the bottom.

I don't get this analogy. Are you saying that Porsche made the 991 engines too big just so they could shrink them down and plaster on some turbos for the 992?
