Question.. What are the must options here for this build?
WP
Mag Wheels
PCCB
???
Or is just getting a stripper the best way to go. Looking at this car as investment as well as pleasure...

Yes, I highly recommend the Extended Fuel Tank (90L) option.

Azzuro Thetys is a great color IMHO. I'm just too cheap for PTS.

Was just checking suncoast, the GT2 RS mag wheels is only 20k now. I am guessing the GT4 RS sizes would also be the same. So for the price of WP + stripe and still no mag wheels, you could just get mag wheels.

I built mine with yellow belts, pull straps, headlights, smoker package, passenger net, bose, PCCB, and arctic gray or guards red (leaning toward gray). I can live without the other options as my current car doesn't have the extended leather or race tex interior. I really wish they offered more colors though... would have liked Python Green or Lava Orange.

Should I get one this is just a keeper for me.

Think passing on the mag wheels makes a lot of sense. Would really like to get an extra half inch out of the front by swapping wheels (also a good reason to skip on PCCB). Don't think you could go wider on the rear. Disappointing that the wheels are same size as the GT4 (fenders aren't wider) despite all the extra power the chassis has to harness.

I suspect Bose is a waste of $ with increased cabin noise

What do the BBS mag wheels go for?

Could be a good alternate should they become available. Though some prefer to have OE and something on the option sheet.

The BBS FI-R Supreme Power Group Buy for the GT4/Spyder was $8690 USD...

Those are Aluminum and excellent. The Mags cost more than double (close to $20k). The option price is well less than that for Mags, because you forfeit the stock light forged Aluminum wheels to option them.

Here is an example of pricing for the Mags on 991RS (notice price before discount):

The BBS aftermarket version has slightly different spokes and costs a little less.

AP’s Paint to Sample GT4RS in what I believe is Azzuro Thetys Metallic
Stripe looks great... Anyone else think that this PTS color looks very much like Polar Silver?
