The interior will be black. Yes, the rockers are extra and all the lowers will be painted as well, so I will be replacing the lip spoiler I'm sure! I'm having additional lip spoilers sent and front grills in black in case there is too much color. (yes, top secret means I'm not telling... yet, but it is not gold!) should be one of the only turbos in this color, hint, nothing, crazy. past posts will give it away.

Yeah, I remember he was asking for a red that has no orange hue to it as he disliked Porsche's current guards red.

Congradulations in advance, enjoy it in good health bro!

By multi steering wheel, you meant multi function? You might want to search for discussions on this in the past. The Multi Function Wheel is thinner, larger in diameter (neither is desireable), and does not have the nice thumb rests at 2 and 10 o'clock. In addition, not everyone has found the functions on the wheel to be helpful (YMMV).

A good option re. steering, and I believe one most people on this forum would pick, is XPA--thicker steering wheel.

Might want to re-consider the multi steering wheel, if

Wow no more hints for you guys. That was to easy. I will look into the steering wheel, didnt really notice a differance in the turbos but Im sure I will after having it for a while. Thank you all again for all the input, the dealer was "ok" about it all but I could tell selling something off the lot was more to their liking. Doing the research yourself is VERY important note to anyone ordering. You can never ask to many questions.

I don't know if you will be installing an I-pod, MP3 interface, but if you do the 6 disc CD changer won't be needed and will only take up precious trunk space.
