That lovely / nasty ( depending on my wifes view ) Simon at Works has persuaded me to place a deposit for speccing a new coupe from the factory.
Whilst I am pretty capable of getting the majority of additional spec right or wrong ( depending on other opinions ) I would genuinely like a specific view on Sports seats v Lightweight.
Other than looks and what suits the car ( lightweight wins in my view ) as a daily driver would I miss the heated seat option too much - appreciate as a Southerner I should man up but this weeks early starts in my V8 have been made much more pleasant with them - and thats also got the alcantara.
Anyone gone from one to the other and regretted it ?
Await any thoughts / abuse / other spec ideas / off topic comments as ever.

Looks like lightweight seats then.
Tbh wasn't thinking resale as no doubt will take a bath anyway.
I want the car to stand out but in an understated way. I have my riviera blue gt3 for the over stated but that's never a daily.
So bit of Carbon in and outside , usual stereo upgrade and camera ( hate them ) , and then colours - tungsten , mako and China in the running - alcantara seat inners - maybe splash of colour and yellow v red calipers v black ? Oh and lightweight wheels , probably black.

Sukh , yes met on one of Jeffs Northants runs.
Funnily enough I looked at the skyfall one at works but changing the spec made it more expensive than a factory order.
Paddy , I wasn't planning on the graphics pack - have seen your comments on the black before - is China a " poor finish " from the factory ?

Thanks to all the helpful comments - my vist to the factory will no doubt add more fun once some of the colours actually seen in the flesh.
If it were a weekend car then would be really tempted to go more adventurous although Mako currently in the lead partially due to thanks to Cayman's link.
