A little note, that I only now saw, the weissach package cage in titanium can't have the extension cage in the front, neither is the titanium cage FIA approved.
The normal Clubsport on another hand is business as usual.
I heard some say that the weissach pack is filled with value, but is it? The wheels are 20k, the package (at least here) is 30k euros, basically 10k for the (not very useful) cage, 20k for the wheels, plus you get the FUGLY fast and furious paint scheme.

Yes, and you can't get a factory front cage bolt-on with the Ti option, only the standard one. (If that's important). EdIt...sorry I just noticed you said that already..!
in the UK you can save c£3k by ommitting the Ti cage and ticking the free clubsport option which adds back in the steel, FIA complaint, cage. (By deduction from overall package weight, I think the Ti cage saves c15kg)
In addition to the Mg wheels, you also get the carbon wheel and interior bits and carbon roll/sway bars etc. And yes, the fugly paint-job.
Seems to to me the best argument for WP is the dreaded 'best for resale', but personally I'm going to pass. If I ever feel the need to squeeze the last second out of it, I'll go to Manthey.

What was Porsche thinking? On providing a slight ugly version of the car in a pretty good value package so people have a desire for the other non-wp package, so they don't have to make so many titanium and magnesium wheels and make the 'flex' money happy by saving them some bucks trying to make stupid color schemes? They could just add exclusive colors or a side stripe.

P.S. All of the people freaking out about the water, just go to a restaurant and ask for tea or boiled water (pretty much distilled water), then let it cool and voilá. Or just get a tune for meth and put washer fluid and make more power.
