Is that GT Silver? Looks good. I know that photo spot -- you really got lucky with the weather too (I guess you're out trying the torrential rain traction of the new AWD today ...) And the right seats to suit the car. I saw a triple black Turbo S cab, but it had the 100-way plus-o-matic seats, which I think took something away from the appeal of the car given the context of 530 horse and PDK with ceramics.

yes GT silver with it on the inside - belt pass and gear select trim, black center console. Wife likes the adaptive's better but I pretty much will only order the buckets, they fit us both perfectly. Ran some errands this morning was no problem at all in the rain.

GT3 on order is:
- aqua blue
- pccb
- sport buckets
- white gauges
- radio, dash wart, etc.. all delete

The conventional seat is a good compromise because it offers ventilation (great in a cabrio when the a/c doesn't do as much and the sun is working, but arguably out of character for a GT3.)

Deleting the radio in a GT3 is a tad hard core and could compromise resale without bringing much value. Perhaps valid on a "stripper" RS (lightweight headlights, lightweight battery, ceramics.)
