nice build. Any reason why you aren’t including a suspension lifter? I have found it to be extremely helpful. Especially since you have a lowered car. Also it helps with resale.

I like it.

Im also waiting for an allocation and build, with deposit down for a turbo s.

Not sure how I feel about the interior painted with blue along the dash and cup holder..

One thing to watch, which I think you covered and I’ve reviewers complain about is any of the black plastic exterior pieces, having them in gloss black or painted. They’ve complained and I agree, the black plastic looks cheaper and doesn’t suit the car.

The front axle lift would be nice, but adds a bit of weight as well.

I would remove the interior trim in exterior color (shark blue).

Those never age well.

Looks good to me - I agree about getting the FAL and removing the interior trim in exterior color.

I concur on not having Shark Blue on the interior trim pieces. If an option, I’d do the seat belts in blue, assuming it’s an option.. If you want something lighter than carbon fiber but want to pull in color from the exterior, go silver.

Too many colors going on in that interior. Not a fan of the shark blue interior pieces, but if you’re going to do it, then go black on the seat belts.

I suggest removing the blue interior trim (exterior color). Back when I was shopping used, these cars always sat, I suspect because people like me think it’s very tacky.

plus, the standard CF trim is quite nice.

of course, not everyone has my taste, you do you.

I did some research on the exterior/interior trim... not a fan after seeing some photos of used cars. I have removed from the build.

My current build is here: http://www.porsche-code.com/PNMC56M5

Not much else has changed other than a few luxuries...

Many thanks for the suggestions, I am a solid six months out... Obviously anxious and already looking into mods...

I personally have ordered the standard Turbo S wheels, as I like the look. I see you have the Exclusive wheels.... I want to say I've only ever seen those with the High Gloss black option, which looks nice. Any reason you didnt choose that?

Only other thing - I really like Porsche Innodrive, particularly when it comes to the traffic jam assist. With a touring car like this, I just had to have it. I loved it in my panamera. But even without that, I cant imagine having a car nowadays without even basic Adaptive Cruise installed. But I suppose thats just personal preference and what kind of driving you do.

+1 on the front axle lift. You won’t notice the extra weight, but you will notice scraping the nose. I use it about once a day.
