Finalized My Build

Stick a fork in me because I am done. No more changes. Below is the build (though not including the Porsche Exclusive red contrast stitching in the interior, which adds another $3360). My car will have the contrast stitching; it just doesn't show up in the configuration.

I decided to stay with the CS2 rather than the CS4.

I decided not to do the PASM since my wife will also drive the car and she'll scrape the chin or hang it up on a parking stopper. If I weren't planning on the wife also driving the car, would have certainly added PASM.

Were it just for me I'd probably have chosen another color scheme but this one is classic and I'm very happy with it. She loves the colors and how it's trimmed so a happy wife = a happy life.

Great build! Seems you are going with the base stereo... have you considered at least the BOSE? (comes with Sat Radio)

Enjoy!

+1 on the Bose, great highs and lows but lacking mids. Bose is not perfect system but IMO its way better than the Base stereo and the least I would get.
The Base sounds too thin, horrible when you crank the volume up.
Other than that you got a great build, congrats.

High end stereos in cars are useless to me, unless you listen to them standing still with a cut engine

The vehicle you showed in the pictures had red stitching, but it isn't in your build sheet.

Re printed below is from the first paragraph of my post:

"Below is the build (though not including the Porsche Exclusive red contrast stitching in the interior, which adds another $3360). My car will have the contrast stitching; it just doesn't show up in the configuration."

Nice build, she will be a stunner

My car have the base stereo too, no regret since I never use it, rather listen to the FVD exhaust music notes

In 1995 I ordered my F355 Spider without any radio or entertainment unit because the only aural experience I wanted was from the engine. But since my C2S will be used for occasional 3-hour trips between Miami and Sanibel, I opted for Sirius radio but kept the base stereo system. Should do quite nicely.
