Well, perhaps it's not worth me trying to sell mine next year even if I want to.......... exterior carbon didn't interest me, and neither did most of the other options being mentioned. Lift was essential, and I wanted heated memory seats - and that was all I really cared about.
Although I did view a higher spec car at the same time as mine, I preferred my poverty spec one - but guess that means nobody will want it and I have to keep it!

I guess it just means we are all different and look for different things. Thinking about it again, the absence of external CF is not such a big issue for me (my previous car had the side intakes in body colour and I do like that look). It is more the mix and match of external CF and palladium that some cars have which I don’t like ... CF mirrors and side intakes but then palladium for front and rear bumpers and door blades just makes the CF bits look a little aftermarket (imho) and it is that which would annoy me. Better with an all or nothing approach.

Of course, these little spec preferences have zero impact on how the cars drive ... and in that respect they remain amazing cars and relative bargains.

Oh no...thats not good; please pass on my condolences to your friend...

Hopefully he was as savvy as you and ordered that wee bit extra paint for unfortunate events such as this...

That is also the unfortunate downside of carbon...its a tad expensive to replace.
Yep, I ordered enough pigment to have the whole car repainted again if needed. Bought a used rear bumper and diffuser which was from a front end write-off 720S being broken up in Leeds.
