Controversial opinion, but Spec/Buy what you want.
My 992.2 winged car is non-WP, non-CS. It has buckets, steels and PDK. 6months in and I have zero regrets.
It's what I wanted & specced because it suits my case-uses, and crucially, my driving ability i.e what/how/when I extract from the car.
The track v road argument is binary, and quite frankly, nonsense.

PCCB definitely (although will probably never use them in anger) - but as an option it helps the resale price when you come to part ways.
Would have been really happy to find a manual, but they are like rocking horse poo - the key to enjoying the pdk is to actually drive it on the paddles.
A careful look at the spec is key, as there's a few out there for sale (that have been for sale for well over a year) that don't have that much on the options front.
Best advice - MAKE SURE IT'S GOT FRONT LIFT.
Coming out of an orange turbo cab into one - is it's suprising how much more positive attention you get, compared to one of the normal cars.

Had look at a touring , as many on sale at the moment , I suspect most owners spec them as per PH and are not really GT3 owners at heart . The reason for a GT3 is track days or hill climbs even if only every so often . Turbo and GTS will always be better road cars . Sadly on way home in RS decided I was happy there , even getting close to 70 in age

Agreed - used the paddles on my pdk 991.2 for the first time in months last weekend. Really upped the fun levels a lot! Would have been really happy to find a manual, but they are like rocking horse poo - the key to enjoying the pdk is to actually drive it on the paddles.
