And why use suede instead of the much easier-to-care-for Alcantara?

Indeed; even putting the loathsome color aside, the quality of the work is just awful. Our 928 interior experts would not have let that leave their respective shops.

SOLD is the response you should have already received.

Reinforce the roof, paint the outside red, and make it a dedicated Christmas Parade car that carries Santa on top. The slush box even works for that

I'd go a thou on it, If I can wait until late Dec to pick up.

Ext color that might go well would be from the lavender, plum, or purple pallet. Prolly use one of the chameleon color shifter paints with a lot of pearl.

Further proof of the high correlation of S4 fans and "issues"...who knew that there was a Fiona Shrek edition?

You can see just a hint of Paul’s artistic ability in the way he subtly integrated the PORSCHE block lettering on the dash and the way he incorporated Porsche branding into the steering wheel by gluing a hood ornament to the airbag. Paul’s done a lot of the leather work in my GTS; I’d recognize his craftsmanship anywhere.

Mark is probably trying to decide if he should sell it as a car. Now that the engine is running it changes the options.
