Not to be a smarty, but here you go...

1. Re the GPS, I am not much help. If I don't know where I am going (a rare
condition), I would just get a map. Easy and cheap.

2. Re the Bose? I have it. I am really at this point indifferent about it.
The factory sport exhaust is way better. I would rather listen to that than
the radio, Bose or not.

3. Lead time, 90 - 120 days, depending on availabilty of the options you choose.
No big deal to get what you want.

4. PASM? I thought about this one and elected not to get it. It's too soft in
regular mode, too bouncy in stiff mode. At least for me. The standard with
18's is fine.

5. Sport Chrono? I have it and am on the fence if I would do it again.

6. Sport exhaust? Definitely. No question.

7. PCCB's? Very pricey, likely not needed, but they work well and look great.

8. Auto air? I like it, could do without if price is an issue.

9. Sport seats and steering wheel? I like them and would do them again.
(Manual seats -- not the electric adaptive kind)

10. To sum up, if price is an issue, get the base model, no options at all. It's
a great car, can probably find one on a lot somewhere for $40 - ish. If you
can spring for it, I would recommend the S and equip it just the way you
want, keeping in mind that the fewer electronical stuff is on there, the
fewer problems you may have down the road, so to speak.

11. I hope that helps.

12. All the best.

13. - Mark
