The 33 is one of my favorite roads to drive in SoCal. Also, nice roads that branch off it. A little bit of a hike to get there, but well worth it.

I wanted to do that drive with PCA but start time was 7am and it would take me about 2.5-3 hours just to get there from SD so no go for me. Maybe one of these days.

That’s too bad you didn’t come to the drive. Start time was actually 8:30, but it’s definitely a “hike” from where you live.

The LWBS are great, inspired by the AP video where he says something like “If I could only pick one option, it’d be the buckets.” And the PCCB are awesome. I have no point of comparison, but they certainly perform as advertised.

Here are a couple interior shots and two from yesterday’s drive.
Congrats! Love the color and config!
Looks like you have leather steering/shifter? I thought those come without colored stitching if ordered with leather? no?
Thanks!

Thanks @M2-6MT! I was worried about this too, but adding the Extended Deviated Stitching Interior Package made all of the stitching come in matching chalk.

Looking great! I was wondering about the “Spyder”badge in the back, is this the one that came with it minus the “718”?
