Help with my 992 build!

I just put my order in and have until 9/28 to make any changes. I am trying to decide how I want to badge it-- right now I have the Porsche logo in black, and was thinking of having the 911 Carrera S in chalk or just doing 911 in black.

When I submitted my build to the dealer the sales guy asked me two questions (stuff that looked off to him): You sure you want manual? and Why not add the Bose sound system? To the first I said YES and to the second I asked does the car come with speakers? He said yes, so I said that's good enough. Unless you are an extreme audiophile, I do not get the reason to pay anything for the sound upgrades, especially given their premium prices. If you are only getting that because it's part of the premium package, make sure that the stuff you actually want individually from the package is not cheaper outside of it, PDLS in my opinion is another unnecessary option.
Btw Nick Murray has a really good video on youtube reviewing all options of the 992 including calculating individual prices of the premium package.

I'd probably drop the Carbon Fiber Roof. To much money for to little gain in either weight savings or appearance. I'd spend that $3,890 elsewhere. First on that list would be the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) for $2,000. If you've not had a car with this it is simply far and away to nice to pass up. Then I'd add the 18 Way Memory Seats for an additional $1,140. I just think they're way more comfortable. The extended range Fuel Tank for $230 just makes way to much sense for me. The long distance drives out here are in the western area of our country make it well worth while. Finally, I'd pocket the remaining $520 or maybe spend some of it on a rear windshield wiper if I lived in a climate that wasn't quite as benign as Southern California.

I know the carbon fiber roof is totally stupid and unnecessary, but I love how it looks. I think chalk needs a contrasting roof; i could go with the sunroof and apply the difference to the ACC.

I'm torn whether or not to add full leather (black with chalk stitching), and rear axel steering; I have 2 days to lock and am on the fence about both.

if you get full leather and RAS, your won't have any regrets. If you don't, you might wish you had. I honestly would at least get the full leather.
