Reality is setting in! My car is on a ship!

I parted out and pre-traded my beloved E92 M3 and ordered the C2S on September 1st. The gravitational pull of the P-Car was too great and required me to trade my one love for my destiny that is the 911. Luckily my S4 lease is up soon, so I can get back into an F80 M3 as a daily driver.



I added the X51 Powerkit on November 15th and now my car is complete and sitting on a ship!

It is now starting to sink in that this thing is going to be in my garage soon.

I agree. That's a very smart build.

I wanted the sport design front end but checked too many other boxes to be able to afford it. You made some wise decisions.

You'll love the gauges in black. And the luggage net...that's priceless!

Thanks! My original internal budget was $110K. So much for that... I was back and forth on the Ducktail. Next, I decided I wanted full Aerocup Kit. Finally, I chickened out and decided to make it look as "grown-up car" as possible by doing just the front bumper.

In the Future please don't use that word when referring to a ship...lol

Nice build. I am curious as to why you didn't choose 14 way seats and PDCC. Some of the fellows here say that the latter when both PDCC and SPASM are checked the car is, "Transformational..."

Still trying to decide my build and wanted to see your rationale.

In my opinion 14 way seat are a waste. I think you need to choose either of the Sport Plus options, 4 way or 18 way. No one else is driving my car so the memory functionality is just added weight. I don't need a massive amount of adjustability.


I decided to get PDCC after is was too late. I need to stop listening to sales people. They talked me out it. They weren't successful in talking me out of Burmester or the Powerkit. I'm sure I'll be alright with out it. There is very little chance I'll be taking this car to the track, and I am way too much of a pansy to drive the car hard enough to get the full benefit.
