Thank you Patrick, but I'm afraid you'll be going hungry for a long time

BTW, are you planning on going to the ALMS race at LRP on 7/6?

Nice upgrade but if you get the change to buy the carbon GT2 bucket seats (they fold) you should do it. I have and there is simply no better seat (for normal build people).

Good move on the fw. The standard one is perfect for the turbo.

Thanks Denis. Looked into the buckets, since I loved my Recaro PPs back in the day, but A) couldn't justify the cost and B) there is not a single set with orange stitching in this country

That's what I meant, they are expensive but from time to time a good deal comes along. Than jump. I paid 2500 for both (nomex tissue) and had them reupholstered.
All in all the best thing I did.

But anyway, paint your backs orange and it will look great for the time being.

The Lambo is more of a light frosted orange - the Porsche way deeper. Like it!

Been doing a lot of driving this summer. Close to 7K miles since I bought it. Car is so much fun to take on long trips and canyon runs! Installed a GT2 RSB, handles much more neutrally now.

And finally got around to ordering the CoA - 10% discount for PCA members who mention Panorama

glad to hear someone else is loading the miles up
I have been too, despite the fact that I'm selling it: it's been a really excellent car!!

and I love the color of yours, there is one that color in my neck of the woods too
