We'll call it the Teamspeed RS Spec...whatever ideas come out of it will be incorporated into the final spec and show up in the car.
I wonder if the option list has the TS Graphics package yet?

Can't disagree with your thoughts there Kuzi...I have a feeling I will pare back the specs a bit. I'm not sure the interior specs really add any additional weight...I'm not doing the front axle lift system so that chops off quite a bit.

The alcantara bits don't really change the weight one way or another...just the look.

I guess the question with the Nav system is not necessarily weight but whether it "fits" the notion of the RS.

Not really... with the full red wheel, the yellow is overpowered:
