Is the Clubsport Roll Bar the one that tends to squeek or rattle? or is that one of the after market brands?

the entire car tends to squeak and rattle. its a feature. I'm sure given that the bar is bolt together it will make lots of cool GT3 type noises.

Yup, between the upper shocks rattle, sway bar rattle and whatever else comes lose rattle, whats another little rattle behind your ears? It just means you did not buy the right exhaust yet.

Straight cut gears, dog gear tranmissions, suspension travel, exhaust, ect, all "cool" acceptable noises. Nuts and bolts that make sloppy fits, unacceptable.
I've had two cars, full and half roll cages, bolted in several places and perfectly silent. Nothing more annoying than sqeaky chatter, typically sounds of something loose or poorly fitted.

Count me in for one. I have been pricing the club sport bar at FVD, P/N 997 580 986 02 for $2,595 plus $100 shipping. Same bar?

Any updates on ordering? I would like to do something fairly quickly. If this isn't a good option, I'm going DAS.

Sorry for the delay. Still negotiating price. The price I received today wasn't mush of a discount, if any, regardless of the quantity, supposedly because of Porsche Motorsports.

Can anyone verify the retail price in Europe (Euros)?

Im also awaiting confirmation on price from another source...
