Surprisingly, I have a lead on an allocation, would like some quick build advice. Note, not concerned about resale and the specs are the things I like, pretty basic build. Intended use is weekend street car; may see the track a few times in its life. Just wondering if there is anything obvious I'm missing. Any input would be appreciated.

Build code is PJRPBH85.

Congrats. Does this mean you found one within your $15k adm tolerance or did you have to go higher?

Leather interior
Skip the chrono
Add Bose

I hope it works out!

I'd add in full leather and then the steering column in full leather...the non-full leather dash looks cheap....maybe get rid of the wart to give the dash a clean look.

Nice.

You ok with the stock headlights from a color perspective? Do they match the platinium wheels? Lots of silver and Grey going on might be great, might clash ....

You and I may be the only people without full leather on a touring although the tracker people do not yet have full leather orders on a percentage basis. Porsche stock leather looks meh to me. I wish you could get LTS or even standard natural leather ....

Thanks for the input. I’m one of the few people on the planet who prefers the standard interior over leather and likes the wart. I debated PDLS, but the standard lights look great on my C2S and think they’ll look good on GT silver.

It’s within my range.

Congrats.

PS consider fire extinguisher. If you don’t like it, I will give you $200 for it.

Archimedes

i had it in originally. Was on the fence. Does it get in the way of passenger legs?

Joemat

It does not get in the way at all. It’s a nice touch

My Touring build is almost identical to yours, so I think it's great. When is your your build?

Don't know if you saw my other posts, but my car is V331 (Entry Port Emden). I'm hoping to have my car around Christmas.

Also, I think we're sort of neighbors. I live on the mid peninsula.

I thought it was fine when I sat in the passenger seat in the showroom, but I don’t sit in the passenger seat so who cares.

My defender is still around because of a fire extinguisher so it was a must have for me regardless. In fact my first build was just LWBs, Tank and extinguisher. Then I remembered autodim and my dealer convinced me on lift.
