Yeah, different strokes and all.

For $600, I think it's a bargain really.

Bottom line M6 vs A10: involvement or supreme efficiency

That's only decision point rest has very little effect on experience

Great post. You sir win the internet today.

I asked them if they could remove those items, they said they couldn't, wasn't a deal breaker, so here I am. I could always sell those items if I want. No big deal. I figure I got everything I wanted and more.
Love those ZL1 mats! Just got em last week. Much better than standard black. Still not sure what to do with that pricey battery charger...�� Love the A10! Have not tried the PDR yet but should be cool at the track. As for the CF and Nav, really like both (especially sending a destination to the Nav from my phone) but not a deal breaker. The engine and suspension are the reason to buy this car, the rest is gravy. Good luck.

I had to have the M6, carbon hood, PDR, and sunroof. I did not think the investment was worth it without getting it exactly how i wanted it. The Nav was the only thing i could have passed on, but it is nice to have.

Why my options are the options everyone should have!

Kidding aside, the PDR is a killer option if you track or autoX. It is cheaper than getting that capacity through open market data loggers. Not doing track or autoX. Don't buy.

I believe the carbon fiber insert really complements the look of the car and seems special. I bought it, and am glad I did, every time I see my car. It is a cool factor that many people often mention seeing my car. Still, it does not add even a split second off your 0 to 60 and has no impact on top speed. It is entirely a cosmetic item, but when was the last time you bought $2 pants. People spend big money to look right.

My car had the carbon fiber fuel tank cover. I would not have selected this option, but I now like it. It goes with the carbon fiber insert and looks different.

I like sunroofs, but weight up high if you race is not ideal. Also note that you miss out on some headroom with a sunroof in a ZL1. Great if you fit, but for example, I could not fit with a helmet at 5' 11".

Nav works well and means I can take a call and still get directions or use my iPhone via bluetooth and not always bother to plug it in to the car for Appleplay.

I like the ZL1 mats with the slightly darker stripe. Still, Weathertech mats works great in the trunk and in the car and for $35 bucks, you can get the blocks that keeps stuff from banging around in your trunk when you are doing your hero runs.

Xpel is a good option to keep the front of your car chip free.

The Blendmount radar detector mount is a good way to hang your radar detector. While you are at it, get the wires to plug into your airbag circuit and free up your one lighter adapter.

Then get Ceramic Pro...

Window Tint...

Lighter wheels...

A track ready alignment with corner balancing...

Stickier rubber...

oh wait, that is just me.

Agree on most of above, Nav, PDR, tint, etc. The Blendmount is a great option for this car.

Did the XPEL for front bra but can't justify the price of Ceramic Pro in my head. Most around here want $3K to do the whole car in Ceramic Pro. If it was a Lambo or I tracked a lot I could see it. But I could re-paint the whole car for less...not knocking the guys that do the ceramic coatings but just can't justify it for me yet but would like to hear why people do this instead of just bra and wax. I have heard the bird poop still damages a Ceramic Pro car so not sure of the value here. Thanx.

Agree. I wouldn't pay $3k for Ceramic Pro but I got it for less than $900 once I was detailing the car anyway for the Xpel. Worth it to me for that.
