Leather & Alcantara, oh my! Exclusive Option to the rescue
As the final run of 100 RS's started to get delivered, I had the opportunity to see some absolutely stunning CXX options.
At first I was bummed because my order had long been locked and so was unable to make changes.
And then I discovered Exclusive Option. They can basically wrap any damn part you could think of.
��������
(PS- the speaker grilles have a double clip. Some have been able to get them out by just prying/popping them out. I read where someone took out the air vent. I'm going to have my tech do them. I tried and just couldn't get them. I would have had to RIP them out. Which I'm not comfortable with. So...pay someone else. ����

Looks great Phil. Is that Smokies GT sticker an exclusive option as well?

Oh gosh, No! That Smokies decal is an EXTRA, Special, Exclusive Option. Only 72 cars have the option.
Thanks bud. The details are what sets it apart!

how much faster is she? can you hear any more pops and crackles on overrev?
i heard extra-alcantara can actually heal your CCM brake rotors over time...
also.. my parents are back in italy now and they said "say hello that nice Filippo boy we met at your little car event".. so, they youthefied you and italianized you all in one sentence... almost makes you cute.

Phil, as usual I love all things you add to your car. These additions continue to improve your already stunning RS. By the way, my wife and I had blast hanging out with you a few weeks ago in the smokies. Hope to see you next year!

I'd be willing to bet the extra leather has added 50-75 HP. The alcantara EASILY added 100hp

Nice upgrades, Looks awesome!!! Exclusive option makes some pretty stuff. Frank got me a matching lava stitch shift boot for my RS manual conversion and the match is perfect, OEM look. I think you must be correct on the sourcing of materials, another company completely messed up the lava orange stitching and claimed it wasn't available to the public?? lol
