Definitely agree with Alstoy. Nice photos Marv, but some of that trim on the inside is too much for me. I have the racing yellow exterior paint and the yellow seat belts with black leather interior. Guess I haven't been up at Penske in awhile as I haven't seen that one up there.

This is what I would get if I got a yellow car. 'Racing' in a more subtle way IMO. Deviating stitching in yellow if you want more yellow inside.

I feel the gauge needles should be white if the instrument faces are yellow. The red is a bit ketchup-and-mustard looking.

I Leave it black on the Chrono dial as I want to keep all black on the top compartment area.

I am looking at the carbon fibre trim option both the dash n door and it goes amazing with the yellow instrument dial..... Wonder if I should keep the centre console without it to match with the sportdesign steering n door handles

Thanks for the suggestions.

Racing Yellow dash trim and door trim as per interior package or not?? Just worry if the yellow trim look too plastic but I wonder it has the look of 'racing'

Thank you for your suggestions

I'd worry about resale with all that YELLOW

Been to the dealer today

Finally make the change to interior carbon package to match with the yellow instrument dial. Had been struggled whether including the centre console in carbon but liked to keep it stock silver with the sport steering n door handles.

Added leather steering column casing and the yellow car key as well.

Scheduled production in march and starting the wait
