I don’t really need the Cooling & Tire package or Leather but not opposed to it either.

Tough decision to make in the upcoming weeks.

I DO know what color exterior I want though and narrowed it down to the two interior choices.

I'm going thundernight, cognac, and black wheels. My second choice was your first configuration (Vegas Red, Black with Red Highlight seats, black wheels).

Brown leather clashes with red paint, IMO.

Good, because it’s not brown. And red and tan go very well together.

3rd option.

Not a fan of black rims at all in general, at least it needs a brighter lip so you can see it in motion. The $2,400 package is also a deal for the brakes, better wheels, tires, additional oil cooler (although unprotected ugh).

I prefer fake leather to the real thing. The red stripes are nice, but too boring as black is the stock color for cheaper cars. The tan cognac provides a decent contrast imo.

Yes, I too am thinking Cognac Sensatec. It will be a daily so I need something that wears pretty well and something that brightens up the interior a bit. The Oyster is way too bright.

I’ll probably delete the sunroof but still undecided on that too.

So color is chosen.
Interior is chosen.
Now I just need to decide on wheels.

I think internal trim was actually my hardest decision. I really wanted carbon fiber but they are REALLY gouging the price on that.

It’s not leather either so you’re sorted all round.

Thanks everyone.

I’ll just need to get the kneepads for the interior. Pretty sure that only the leather with blue stitching or red stitching comes with knee pads in the US.

I’m sure I’ll change my mind on color and interior before all said and done though. Ha!
