Default Have a glass of Champagne and some Sharkwerks goodies

The goodies awaiting:


There's the factory exhaust/tips ready to come off:

They are big!


While the ECU is on the flash bench and tuned for 91 octane and left-foot braking enabled you can also see she's nicely optioned with yellow belts:


Ready to go home:

What is odd is on my GTS with PDK you can press the brake and the throttle does not cut off. Seems like a Porsche as high end and sporty as a GT3RS would do the same.
