We pay less than anyone else, get extra air bags, but loose the plastic rear window (which I think is a positive long term), the seats (negative) and the roll bar (negative). But we will be able to add the all the lost items back and still pay less than pretty much any other country. So we win, but it will take a little extra effort!

if you must have the plastic rear glazing, you can buy it easily.
the seats will be readily available in a year or two and most likely at very good prices.
the factory roll bar, have you SEEN it in person? it's rather ugly with zillions of bolts showing using tube over tube connections. i much rather have a custom one made and welded in there like cup car. yes, it will look 100% factory as i have done that 3x in my previous GT3. all the interior remain like a street car.

100L is actually a very common size. When the car is running hard, the mileage gets a little thinner than the EPA estimates.
