Is the configurator correct, that if you do not take the leather interior you can only get whorehouse red?
Anyone know?
I wouldn't spec the WP.
Don't trust the carbon fiber sway bars at Sebring.
I even like the all CF hood better.
The Ti wheels you could get from BBS, but the car is going to be so ridiculously under tired that, just like on the GT3RS, I would swap the wheels out for lighter 19" on more track worthy tires.
Puttering to the track, I am sure regular wheels and tires will suffice.
The PCCB would go on the shelf and be upgraded to refurbishable CCB after market rotors.
I did hear rumors that we now can get OEM clubsport bars and cages.
Perhaps also the Ti one?

I would love to get the TI cage, I hope your cleaning lady is more reliable than my gardener. I did see that GMG is going to make a cage that looks like the TI cage.

My own Ann Darrow left the factory today (dressed in Agate), but King Kong is still a month away...

Hope all is well Footsoldier. Congrats on your soon to arrive Agate Grey ANN DARROW.
My Blonde (Golden Yellow Metallic) ANN DARROW got delivered last Saturday January 20. The fit and finish is simply superb! When you receive yours, look at the gold accents embedded on the interior carbon fiber (door panel, dashboard, console), it looks stunning!
My Kingkong joins the party this fall.

Looking good! I was at the launch in UK and was able to see the quality up close. I wasn't sure about this car to begin with, as a lot of the features are purely cosmetic (obviously it has some extra power as well). Once you see it in the flesh though, it does really stand out.
interesting about the wheels being on back order...no-one has mentioned this to me, so I was expecting it to arrive on carbon, but let's see.
enjoy!

Hello Footsoldier,
On top of the standard laser etched wheels, together I ordered the carbon fiber wheels with my car at introduction/launch here last September. I was informed that due to many orders and the length of time it takes to produce a set of these carbon fiber wheels, it created a backlog. Yours might come with carbon fiber, if you preferred that over the laser etched wheels.
Like what you said, pictures do not do justice. I tried to avoid ordering a turbo car as I truly prefer and like naturally aspirated cars. But when the GT2RS and this Turbo S Exclusive Series were announced back to back, I simply couldn't resist Kingkong the King of Nurburgring, and to be complimented by the outstanding fit and finish of Ann Darrow (Turbo S Exclusive Series). Enjoy in good health!
