This is supposedly Porsche's pride and joy,a track car that is street legal. And you are on an enthusiasts forum. The car is pretty heavy as it is...you're going to add more weight?! And perhaps drive that big wing to Cars and Coffee? You'll end up poseur galore. Do you see where I'm going with this?
I may end up for a few kg extra from better paint and a carbon fibre speaker system but maybe I'm am not as fat as you so still faster ?

You, my friend, would be a rock star at Cars & Coffee if you did a US tour.

Well done and congrats on the car.

Short of turning everything off, including NAV, how do you do it?

Unfortunately the only way is to hold the power button for 3 sec and that will turn everything off and stay off,even at start up. But of course,that will turn NAV off too. Otherwise,you'd have to press the Mute button(the radio will get un-muted when starting the car),or put it on AUX mode.

Woppum - i've followed you on instagram for a long time now and you have fantastic taste in cars

I feel like some people are trying to pick a fight with you in this thread for no reason. Don't worry about that, I for one admire what you have done re; colour and wanting to upgrade parts you see as deficient (stereo). The colour isn't to my liking, but guess what, it's not my car so more power to you for going with what you want and not just following what the majority considers to be nice.

To be fair, i'm sure that in person its a stunning colour. Same thing happened for me with Volcano Orange on Mclarens. You need to see it in person to enjoy the depth and character that it provides.

Please keep posting updates as this is a truly 1 of 1 project.

Greetings from Australia
