I like painted interior trim, but I wouldn't do PCM, it just doesn't come out right imo. I wouldn't do the vents either, I'd substitute the carbon fiber bits for paint. Looks better imo. Still, it's a sick ride.

Window sticker does not match car. Says Wheels in silver and seats with black and silver alcantara. That is strange

What is the custom tailoring option? That sounds like a thing ferrari uses.

I'm looking at this car and can't figure out where the extra 24k went? Was it in the door sills and vinly on the outside? lol. This inside is horrible. The outside is very nice, but the green on the inside isn't done properly. He should have went all carbon fiber on the inside, silver stitching (if the 24k he paid in custom tailoring can't get him green), and have done green vents if he wanted some green on the inside.

But the way it's done, makes zero sense.

Thanks for the comments guys, it's a 918 VIP car for the store so we can't sell it for 6 months. The 918 Flyline is available if it's a 918 VIP car, so something kind of unique to set it apart. I hear you on the PCM, it connects to the painted center vent to make it flow a little better than just a stand alone PCM painted. The idea of it was to bring some of the PTS color into the interior without losing the carbon. One of my favorite parts of the 07/08 was the high gloss black exterior parts and the car looked almost unfinished in some ways with all the matte exterior trim. We wanted to get the engine cover in Viper Green, but the only colors available for the exterior painted parts was the 4 standard colors, Miami Blue, Black and Racing Yellow. The pricepoint to get the items painted was more than we wanted, but it's a really special car, so in the end decided to go for it. The feasibility check failed to get the shark fins painted black, they only come in matte, that would have been to go with the rest of the theme.

The car gets built with silver wheels then after it's regular production it goes into CT assembly (custom tailoring) this is where they paint the wheels along with adding the other painted and CXX items.

Geoff, what does this really mean? Is this a 918's owners car, that he plans to sell back to your dealership, so Isringhausen can resell? Or is this a perk allocation given to Isringhausen to sell in 6 months as a bonus for selling so many VIP 918 cars?

Or maybe the dealer principle bought a 918?

Meaning as a dealer we have a 918 and this RS is our 918 VIP car.

Very nice car - mine is coming in the same color in the next few months, and did some of the same exterior choices...i am excited. Good stuff.

LOL! Senior, as in Mr. Geoff I. Senior! Both Geoff and his father are PCA Club races in the Cayman. Geoff's father I think was 2nd place in points for 2015.

May (Memorial Day weekend) is mainly the DE for Novice and Instructors. In September, over Labor Day weekend, are the Club Races. Both great events by the Chicago Region PCA.
