What do you think?

I think it's pretty funny that you're more interested in performance than luxury and then six of your seven options aren't particularly performance related. My suggestions would be:

* Drop the sport steering wheel, the 987 wheel feels big at first, but I've found it to be perfect.
* Go Bose or not at all on the stereo. SPP is a half-assed solution.
* If you're going to be driving top-down alot, then get the windstop. It's pretty much of a given
* Standard seats are great, so I agree with you on the seating choice, but heated seats will help your resale prospects. Depending on how cold you'll go with the top down, they could also come in handy.

I'd say the two best bang for the bucks in terms of making your car visually distinctive are:

* Roll bar in exterior color
* Porsche crest in headrest

Neither of which are very pricey (by Porsche option standards).

Standard six speed is quite good (same as on the 997), I don't think you'd need a sport shifter.

Just my .02
