Sorry for inducing nausea Chris...and for all those others that hate NB.

+1 on cocoa!

Also make sure that you get the "gear lever trim in leather" option, so it gets deviated stitching, (was code xdz on the GT3, makes a big difference for little extra $.)

Although tell Josh and Chris to take it easy on me, okay?

I didn't paint the seat backs...I cried "uncle" after spec'ing the deviated stitching at an insane price.
Paint them!!!!

It looks damn good. Period.
You wanna know what doesn't look good? Washed out blue interiors, green interiors... etc
Cocoa would look good, but I prefer the natural brown with the GT Silver. Does it get any more "timeless" than the Carrera GT signature color?

The problem with that is not only does it have the steering wheel, but it also has the two tone interior package. Way too much... There is a line

To that I would add:

Carbon or black air vent vanes
black painted door pull
black painted or carbon rear center console
black deviated carpets
black gauge faces

Saw a guards red 2010 turbo today with the $6,950 Aerokit package on it that looked pretty sharp in the flesh I must say, you can see the wing is split and elevated like the GT3 but not nearly as high. Not sure if this is an option on the S but might be worth a look. He also had the model designation strip across the body which I thought was a bit much.

Middle to late July. It usually takes, as I understand it, about 1 month from loading in Europe, sailing across the Pond, off loading in Baltimore, transporting to Chicago.
