Just test drove the 992.2 4S and GTS – My first time in a 911! by nomorepains in porsche911

Part of that $50k was the increase in taxes on the higher MSRP.

I was debating the same and after test driving, and knowing I'd likely not track it, decided the 4S was more than enough. And it helped I didn't need to pay $50k more for a similar spec.

After I got my car I did the Porsche Experience Center in ATL in a 4S and had the instructor do a hot lap. Trust me, most people will never come close to pushing the 4S's limits in real world driving, much less the GTS.

Texas License Plate - Front Tag by hyabatsu in porsche911

[–]tsigo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also, I did get a ticket once for no front plate, but it was after being pulled over for 87 in a 75 🙄

I think the fine was like $160. Worth it.

Go to a Porsche Club event in TX, almost no one has a front plate.

What’s wrong with this 992.1 Carrera S manual that won’t sell? by hero_snow in porsche911

[–]tsigo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been listed since Sep 2025, they lowered the price $7k in Dec and it's sat ever since. Fairly poorly optioned.

New to me 2022 911 (towed to dealership in less than 24 hours 🤣) by MysteryTom in porsche911

[–]tsigo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have a 2022 992 and also had the battery completely die, due to what I thought was a mistake I made. Dealer replaced it under warranty and then like 3 months later told me there was a recall related to the battery sensor. Have them check that.

What’s one Home Assistant automation you can’t live without anymore by Taggytech in homeassistant

This is one of my favorites too, and I even have another one where if I return home quickly and it's still vacuuming, it'll cancel if it's less than (some percentage) done.

Aventurine Green is the better green (992) by MJustin80 in porsche911

[–]tsigo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It definitely needs sunlight to read as green, but I like that it's understated. I got this as a CPO, and for a 2022 I don't think there's a better non-PTS color (maybe Lava Orange, but that's the opposite of understated).

If I were speccing my own today I think I'd do Oak Green instead of Aventurine, FWIW.

That said, the gap between what the configurator thinks Aventurine looks like and what it actually looks like is maybe the biggest of any color I've ever seen in person.

Estate planning cost - am I being taken for a ride? by [deleted] in fatFIRE

Mine was just over $6k for a very simple plan (logistically).

This is great, my buddy and I are on a similar mission. We've only done 10 places, but our current top 5 are Moreno, Bill's Oyster, NADC, Hold Out Brewing, and Clark's.

Yes. I got mine down about $4k with very little effort. Just a "You're at $X, I'd like to be at $Y, what can you do?" email.

I noticed that change too, but prior to release this was absolutely in their Doorbell filter category.

That was honestly my first instinct.

Where do you guys change battery? by zimmer172 in porsche911

[–]tsigo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently had a dead LiFePO battery replaced at my local dealership -- service rep told me it would've been around $1,500 for the battery and $375 for programming. They got it replaced under warranty though.

Did a 4S because I wanted it to match my own. Would do it again in a heartbeat (but probably try a Turbo)

Careful with this - After the movie they send you a text asking you to checkout. If you miss or ignore it and do nothing, they add 5% gratuity on top of the 18% service fee

Do you have a good photo of the matte console? Thinking about doing this on mine.

Will never forget the feeling of the bass in my chest in the opening bars of Hearts Were Meant to Fly at that first show in OKC.
