924S went on a diet
I stripped the interior today. going after it later to remove the sound deadening and un-needed wires... but man, what a chore! and it does feel lighter, quicker, and hot damn...

it's really an obnoxiously loud car with the interior stripped... I was also amazed at how thin the sheet metal for the tunnel is...
