Beautiful!

Porsche's are no joke! Those guys know how to put power to the pavement. That Porsche Red is pure sexy! Gotta respect the technology and performance here!

That red is stunning. They should have gone for gunmetal finish wheels instead of black though.

Contrasting stitching costs 3x as much as on the LFA, haha. (Of course still a bargain compared to the 458 I suppose.) I have always liked Guards Red and it looks great here - I have to say the contrasting interior is a bit over the top for my tastes, though.

I'm amazed it sold off a showroom floor given the difficulty Porsche reportedly had in finding buyers... plus if I'm spending $300k on a car I want it customized to my specs. Very lucky owner either way. This thing has got to be insanely fun to drive.
