Default Submitted Specs for Nov Build !!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Everybody,
Thanks to all of you who helped me shape my turbo specs over the past few months.
I have a November build spot which will likely take a bit longer as the car is a paint to sample Orange. With the recent GT3RS, Boxster Lim Ed, and now Cayman Lim Ed all in the same Orange, I am hoping that my wait will not be too long.

A Summary of the car:
-Orange Turbo Coupe, Black interior
-6 Speed, LSD, SC
-Adaptive Seats
-XM, iPod, Bluetooth
-Lots of Leather with Orange Deviated Stitching
-A few pieces of interior trim in Orange

I finally decided to go with a few interior pieces in Orange. A bunch of folks had swayed me away from doing this, but I felt like it would make me happy.

I am considering getting the wheels painted black but will more likely order some aftermarket wheels in black and swap the rubber when it arrives.

Whoo Hoo !!!!!!! I am getting excited now.

Here's the Pro Forma:

I think that is going to look fabulous! Black wheels would look great. I think I would go aftermarket with the wheels.

Great specs. I think the painted interior pieces are ging to add a lot to it.

I can't wait to see your interior. Great specs! Painted door finishers will be very cool.

going to be nice-the interior leather and paint really adds up in price-would you mind telling us what the msrp is of such a nicely optioned car?

I think the MSRP came out to 152K. Come to think of it, what the hell am I doing? Oh yeah,....I'm helpless.

hey, that is going to be one beautiful car-it will give you 150k of enjoyment- build it the way you want, and you will always enjoy it. a modestly equipt car will be close to 135k, so an extra 15k to do it up nice is worth it. thanx for the info
