My New Yeller Twin and test car.

I know, I know. I have had it since last Wed, better late then never. Here she is. The replacement for my 800HP steed. Very little is the same. Mostly the color. It hits the dynos in the morning for some baselines and the mods and testing to start next week.

Here are the options I ended up with. LSD, Fire Extinguisher, Chrono, deviating stitching, painted rockers, short shifter, Heated seats. I even had the windows tinted before I flew up and got her. In all I am very pleased with the car even though some of the things I want to try and fit and test on the car will not arrive for two weeks! Some in OCT!! <O</O

LOL, I can't make up my mind. They would have been gone by now if I found something I thought would look perfect. Any ideas?

Can you take a picture of the interior? I'm especially interested in the deviated stitching because I was told that it wasn't possible to get that option in the US.

Really? Hmm. I will shoot some pics for you. My interior is black with gray deviating. Porsche will do anything for a cost.

True, I ran those on my 996TT when I got it. I would like something different this time.

Beautiful car Stephen. I can't wait to watch it evolve. I agree try something new other than the TechArts, but I like the idea of a spoked design. Maybe Kinesis 59's or similar?
