I've looked forever for a used Carrera S with tasteful upgrades. An immediate deal breaker for me is gauges in any color other than black (I don't like the tach in gray either). This build goes as garish as you can in anyway possible and he has checked the black gauge option...............That's funny.

This car will sit forever until the price is well under $100k. With all due respect to the original owner, some things only a mother can love. Maybe there will be a close relative who can look fondly at this. For me - it hurts my eyes.

I agree, it will definitely have to be under $100K

The gauge faces can be swapped out.

I believe Suncoast even sells them.

They are aftermarket ones, but are exact copies.

I think they just said - yeah, put one of everything one this one. GTS would have saved a lot on options.

Not CPO...and if you are going to spend all that $$$, no adaptive cruise control?

Although it does have the highly desirable PSP...

Still much happier with my uber-build C2S than I would be with this one - blue (even PTS) and red are simply not my taste...

I'd hit that car. But not at the price.

The superman color combo looks a lot less awful in real life (or color corrected photos, the red throws off most camera's automatic white balance detection). BMW people have a lot of experience with the combo since Estoril Blue and Yas Marina Blue are good colors and most of BMW's leather colors suck (the black is too grey, the beige looks cheap and people often fall back to red/orange).

The car is priced way out of what I would pay for any MY2014 c2s. I don't want to end up poor when I resell.

ETA: also, why go red leather and red calipers and then get the clear taillights???

Calipers are actually yellow, that's why

I think his eyes were still hurting after the leather pic and he could no longer distinguish colors!!!

Outrageous combo and a not-gonna-happen price.

Well, nothing that a good rattlecan and some whiteout can't fix.
