Although, we all know must of us that can afford a 100K+ car can afford the LEDs for 3k, its a matter of practicality. Just cause I can afford a $10 can of coke, do I buy one? You'd also figure LEDs would be cheaper too, but who knows. Porsche just wants to rip you.

 

I smell sour grapes.

 

Starts to make more sense than just thinking $3k for a few LED's... Thanks for the feedback

 

I've ordered the LED-Lights as well. According to my salesman, the step from xenon to LED is bigger then the one from halogen to xenon. The difference regarding illumination, brightness and luminous color is supposed to be like day and night.

This increases the level of security and drive comfort at night. Besides, xenon will vanish, LED will be the standard very soon. This made me think the option is a reasonable expense, more reasonable the the aluminum pedals for example, which I got as well.

Of course the price is ridiculous. But no more ridiculous then the price of every other option Porsche is selling to us. I'm just curious: Did one of the sceptics ordered his car with the painted key fob (335$), air vents in leather (1710$) or sport chrono dial in a different color (500$)?

 

Got painted key fob for less than $50 on eBay Air vents in leather is one of the craziest (and ugliest IMHO) options...

 

Got the key fob and its case, X51 and a white sport chrono dial along with much more. Got the car the way I wanted it and I'm not really in the mood to discuss how much is too much. If you afford it have it built the way you want it. We all know going in the options (and in fact the whole 991S) is expensive. Many skeptics are just jealous!
