Just a note on interior stuff ... if you look closely, there's perforated speaker areas in the door cards and electric window switches have been relocated to the center console lower stack right and left of a center toggle that has been modified into a garage door opener. The tippy controls on the steering wheel are wired to control the radio/navi ... all Sid-ifications
(thanks JDHertz ..)

The window switches in the center console are genius. and the door cards are perfect with the speakers hidden.

On the blue speedster, also notice how the rear window defogger switch has a subtle change as well?

Very slick. Love the little details.

Also - another great thread, Jäger. Thanks for taking the time to post all of these pics!

Speedy's 'unobtanium' shoes were offered by a RLer:
lightweight magnesium-centered Speedlines born as OEM Porsche Motorsports parts for 993 GT2s & Cup cars, modified to fit a WB street car.

...Yep, that's right: the Bugatti Veyron held everyone back.

But at least it was fined a $1,000 littering charge




[wait for it]




...for sitting still on the road
