Thanks to fellow member GEE - BEE for giving me the idea! More heart felt thanks to members who helped me out when I place the order (in a few days!)
FANTASTIC!!!! I was about to buy an 09, but decided I had to have those spyder rims, so it will be a 2010 for me. Glad you made the order in time to get those wheels!!

2 words of advice that were given to me by a Porsche guy. 1) it is very easy to make the interior look like a circus, sometimes less is more. 2) If resale value is important, then the less is more should really be paid attention to.

Lastly, I think leather everything with deviated stitching everywhere looks great. I am not a huge fan of the CF combined with the silver bits. I also think CF interior trim is played out a bit.

As said above DAW includes CDZ.

You may as well add 509-Fire Extinguisher. The red will look good with your stitching.
Yeah , I had saved all those pictures from your car and after reviewing them again I canceled CUR.

Completely agree on the circus bit. That is why I deleted the painted seat back option. The interior is mainly leather and a few bits of carbon on the door handles , a/c and door entry guards. Silver only being on the gear lever and hand brake and that too because I can not get deviated stitching with a carbon gear **** (hate that fact!) . So basically the interior will be well balanced with mainly carbon and leather and just 2 pieces of aluminum. As such I reside in India and so the question of re sale is out of the window + this will be a keeper in my collection.

I deleted the CF option due to the fact the shift **** is totally screwed up with Porsche. It makes no sense that you have to jump through hoops to get deviated and then you can't select your CF ****. I think your car will look great. And if you hate the stock alum **** you can get a cf one

The latest update , from the Sales Manager , regarding my spec Turbo is that there are some interior custom tailoring options that are conflicting . He just sms'd me (at 9 pm IST) . He will give me the entire details on the same tomorrow morning.

Now ... I wonder if any thing in that options list went wrong? I am very sure no option conflicts with the other. What could have gone wrong?

Yep! I have always enjoyed a Porsche with a 6sp. I experienced a 911 with a tiptronic and could never forgive myself for that error . If I wanted a fast 6 cylinder DCT sports car, I'd get a GTR , which I already have. =)
