I'm not suggesting you follow my opinion at all, I'm just saying what I'd take off if it was going to be my car. (Red means X)

And if I could, the car would be GT Silver with leather to sample: Cocoa.

Jr.,
I've been after you guys for a while now to order a Mexico Blue car for stock. Glad it's finally being done. How about making it a GTS 4 coupe same options but add aerokit?

Here's my thoughts. Having a GTS, I LOVE the Alcantara, just which I had the Leather version as the lower dash and door inserts are Alcantara.

Following the lead, I'd remove everything highlighted in RED. As a sportier version that the base Carrera S, it should retain it's sporty looks. Keep the Model Designation on the doors. Keep the lower panels in black (they look really good with the other black trim on the car, especially the wheels).

Also, I prefer the look of the CLs, but you can't add spacers to a CL car. The rears REALLY need to be pushed out...so add some Spacers. 14mm if you can, otherwise at least the factory 5mm set.

BTW: a Mexico Blue GTS is going to look BAD-A$$. I hope to see this one built and pictures posted!

If you're not a full size man and haven't sat in sport buckets, don't recommend them. Most won't be comfortable

Thanks for the input guys, your comments really helped. Will post up the final spec after deliberating with my Dad on how we're going to do it. We're going to put the Fuchs wheels on when it comes in, which is why we didn't do the RS Spyder centerlocks.

It will look fantastic with the Fuchs.
