I can't tell if you had San Pellegrino with dinner last night, or if you split a bottle of Macallan 18 with Chaosoul. Either way, I am getting the leather option because my wife told me that the plastic dash on my RS looks horrible, not to be a cheapskate, and get the leather.

If that's the main issue, get the steel rotors.

BTW, tracking a GT3 is NOT cheap in any respect. You are probably going to spend >$1000 per day overall in tires, pads and oil.
