The Orange 997 Turbo and Misc. cars.
Questions Answered:
Thank-you for the compliments, my wife loves the car!
I paid extra to have the little grills painted, I thought why not, it's different! The interior is all CF and Alcantara with all the goodies.
The calipers are yellow because they are PCCB's, I ordered yellow gauges to add some yellow highlights, I think it works pretty good.
The car is getting black HRE's with matching orange lips (20's), should look pretty pimp, definitely toyish, the car looks like a huge toy (which it is) in that color!.
The seats are 997 GT3 seats, the European ones. They are full CF, leather an Alcantara... they list over $8K, but for ones that are actually in stock you will pay more likely. They bolt right in. There is also a bracket kit that is needed for the harness (which I need to lose another 15 lbs to find comfortable, I lost 10 to fit into the seat!).

I like driving it, but I ordered it with a tiptronic (actually fairly impressive). My wife drives stick pretty well, but it stresses here out with all the huge hills and stop and go traffic so she really wanted an auto.
It's got the sportchrono so it launches like a ****!

Here's the first one into the US (in that color) I put some OZ's on last fall. Stunning.

Seth,
She looks awesome! What does the wife think of it? I'm assuming she has had a chance to drive it for a while by now. Any plans to mod her beyond getting wheels?
Post some interiors of that pimp-*** interior too! You got a whole bunch of interior goodies so show it off!
