Still not sure on paint colour. Also don't know about gloss grill ducts and what dash trim. I don't know if you can get the brushed dark aluminum on the turbo. I had brushed silver in my RS6 and loved it.

Any thoughts on the build, fire away, got to have it sorted by Friday night.
Don’t fancy tinted rear lights?
Both me and the wife really dislike the tinted rear lights, that's what really put us off the GTS. I'd have liked the red bar out with a slightly dark tint over it though.

Fair enough. The one I saw in that colour with tinted looked nice but each to own of course !

Good spec, maybe consider speed limit indicator it’s quite useful and privacy glass? The gloss black grill ducts do look better and the all black interior is broken up/complemented by the brushed aluminium interior trim. 👍
Did think about speed limiter, but you get that on waze anyway. Most of the time the wife will be using it for work, and it's just 30mph for her.

Privacy glass is too dark for me just on the rear, I think I'll get a light tint all around.
If you get a post build tint done using film, then the heated rear screen element will be seen from the outside. Just saying because someone I know had this issue.

If your wife is mainly using for local 30mph driving, with the 21” wheels she might appreciate PS plus?

That's is one of the problems getting it done after, but the factory tint is a little too dark for my taste.

Thankfully she was used to the heavy steering in our RS6, so she'll be all good. I did ask her and she said leave it standard, I'm not going to complain.
My works Merc sprinter has stoooooopidly light steering and it's strange to me.

Well, looks like I've been overruled. The wife asked all the family and all her friends, 90% say get the blue, so looks like it's going to be Sapphire blue. I'm not too fussed, cause the blue looks superb on the Macan as well.

Seems this will be the build - http://www.porsche-code.com/PMTUZ568

It's far from a grumble from me, that looks superb!

Got the build video chat on Saturday morning, that will be THE spec as its a March build now.

Really hope we have 1 week of lockdown lifted for collection :D
