Thanks! Looks great!
No problem, I'll try do some interior pics later. It's a decision I struggled with for a while. Loved the interior and exterior but really wasn't sure if they went together as a combination. I did find a couple pics of the "Superman spec" on this forum so I went with it. Dealer wasn't sure either and tried to persuade other colours but I stuck with it.

Really love it glad I did. Looks great, really good.

PS I just went through 20,000 miles in my .1GTS. The large bottom still delights me every time I look at it.

BTW are you in the UK? I noticed your car is RHD and has silver PDLS headlights, which I don't think are an option on the GTS in the US. I wish the GTS offered here had an optional silver or black theme, since I think silver accents work better with Sapphire Blue. I was able to correct a few of them on my order but not all. I ended up keeping the black CL wheels since the 5-lug Carrera S silver wheels seemed like too much of a downgrade. Now I just need to find someone with the silver Turbo S wheels to trade with.

Yes based in U.K.
I didn't make any change to headlights so whatever is standard.
Having put a few miles on it this afternoon all I can say is.....what a fantastic car. So lively and nimble. Can't be sure if it's the rwd (I had a 4GTS before)
the RWS, power steer plus, lighter car, no glass roof this time. Really feels a different car to the .1gts.
It effortlessly quick, really quick.

Mine finally locked. They say 8/15. No sleep till then. The interior detail is best viewed in the 360 degree function on the configurator:
