Only thing I'd change is some HREs but seems your looking for high #s so you'll be keeping the weight down? SPI only way to go for real world applications of Spanking the competition on the streets. Once again BEAUTIFUL!!!
Your Car + SPI + Open Autobahn =

Thanks and yes I like HRE's but I am going to get Tech 1 Center Lock wheels in a gloss charcoal. Pics attached (first pic is wheel and second pic shows the finish and color).

Your stock spyders look absolutely fabulous as is!
Is it a weight issue or aesthetics?
Is this something you're going to do straight away or considering for later?

Don't get me wrong, I think the new wheel you've selected with the charcoal finish are gorgeous too, but as is, your baby rocks! One of the best lookin' whites I've seen...

Thanks Carlos, and you have yourself a beauty as well! Looks to be a Guards Red .1 with factory Aero Kit. Gorgeous!

Thank you for the kind words and your explanation. To answer your question, its really two fold. Yes the lighter weight of the Tech 1's is nice and always appreciated for performance but the main reason is that since I did not get PCCB's, I really need a darker wheel color so I spend less time cleaning the wheels brake dust and more time enjoying driving my Turbo. So I guess its more about the brake dust than any other factor.

Great car. I am certainly jealous.

Any complaints on the PDK? Anything you DON'T like about it?

I am a believer, and can not wait to get one for my own

So far the only complaint I have (and its not much of one) is that I don't see a need for the Sport Button. I mean on normal cruising I just keep it in Normal (no buttons activated) and when I race I put it in Sport 2. I guess its a middle point between the two, I just don't use it. In terms of performance, I cannot say enough great things. What's not to like? Instant shifts, launch control, always in boost, and seamless transitions between the gears...it is simply the nicest gear box I have ever used and owned

You're loving this car, huh? It truly is a masterpiece. All cars have their downsides but IMO, this is one of the few that I just can't find fault in. I can't wait to see some more modded ones hitting the streets.
