I ordered CF exterior and CF Seats with CF Interior Trim. Not sure if i went overboard? I'm just not into all the Tech packages. I don't care if my car doesn't have auto engine start or automatic trunk close.

Well, I suppose worth it is subjective to each person.

if you buy the parts after getting your car it'll be a lot more should you change your mind. I think the G80 with the CF seats is going to be more sought after in general

I agree! $3,800 in my case is the difference between a $4k beater and a nicer $7.5k beater for those days when I can't drive my G80 (ex. bad weather days or to park at the airport for travel)!

As I had posted earlier, you also get the CF interior trim as part of the CF package in Canada, which is 2k CAD cheaper than getting the 3 options seperatly. Not a bad deal at all...

Nope. I did my research when making my decision and I am just sharing my findings. My choice is made and my next car is already on order.
Well don't leave us hanging - what is the next car ?

The front and rear look horrible without it. Must have.

I dont think its worth the money. The main benefit of it for me is the intake scoops, but I would expect to buy these aftermarket in a few months for likely 80-200 bucks.

I don't think the carbon fiber seat are expensive option but rather the carbon fiber package is.

No. I like my cars stock and fully warrantied. I’ve done my modding craze when I was younger. I grew tired of the cost and lack of reliability. I’d rather focus on improving my driving skills.

Ha Ha. I wouldn't do it either!. It's a fast ass car stock. Best of luck with it! Are you going to clear wrap the whole car?

Porsche talk in here? No thanks.

I want the front carbon bits but don't care about the other carbon pieces. $4700 is just a really absurd cost for this kit. It should be $3000 max.

Anyone think it will be easy to retrofit the front bumper pieces into place? Full bumper off sort of situation?

I placed my order for the G80 M3 today - the carbon fiber package was a must.

The front end is changed to be slightly more appealing with the CF exterior package.
