I am putting in a order on Monday and wife will be assisting with color. I would like your opinions on what not to miss once I have a general outline which will be added as I start to work on it.
Thanks for all your help.

Dont miss sport chrono!!!!!!!! That is an absolute must. Locking diff is cool but you'll probably never use/need it. Sport shifter is nice. Most everything else is cosmetic.

IMO PCCB is also a wise choice. see other threads. maybe thicker steering wheel too.

Be sure and at least get the manual sport seats (no additional cost). For $1145, go for the adaptive sport seats. I ordered them on mine.

The two options that I regret not having in my car are the PCCB brakes and the bucket racing seats (if you plan to do a lot of track get them from the factory).
