Default How Ugly Can you Configure an RS?

Hi, everyone. At times Rennlist threads can get quite passionate, whinny, redundant, hurtful, and so on, so I thought I would create something that could be FUN!!

While the title says it all, I do feel I need a disclaimer "photos of configurations are not intended to say other Rennlisters don't have taste if this IS your configuration" Well, maybe it does. This is all in fun and a bit of resilience may be necessary.

Again, please post configurations and not actual cars, being way too politically correct here, but you get the idea. One man's princess is another man's _____________.

Post away!!


Here's my first entry to get started. Gosh, I wish I could show a different color stitching.

^I saw that car at PNH, except with yellow belts. But had red, yellow and blue. And I think red stitching. I didn't take a good look. It hurt my eyes.

One of a kind. I'm guessing a $150k ADM.

The configurator is not showing the Miami vents and sapphire climate control panel.

Here's my first entry to get started. Gosh, I wish I could show a different color stitching.

I would certainly 'modify' the above build further - in the spirit of 'deviation', I would not match the SportsChrono with the gauges, give it some white or yellow. Ditto for the AC vent slats - paint those in Lava Orange - we want equal representation of the full GT color pallet

Then for good measure - make every wheel a different color - we've seen that live on a Gulf Blue car. And that's just the start of CXX - you seriously need some Pasha seat inserts to give the cabin a full 'vertigo' effect!

There are plenty that would fit this bill unfortunately in my eye as the beholder. Many even on here so I will refrain. My general rule is no more than 3 colors max. When people have brakes, car, gauges, stitching and 12 o clock marker in different colors reminds me of this. Probably how they dress.

I have a theory
folks order these “one of a kind” builds with questionable colors/cxx choices with the mind set that one day they can flip it for profit

you know
”1-of-1 pts cxx etc etc etc for sale”

But to each his/her own. You got the money, go for it. Be a unique butterfly.
