Now I am kind of questioning the WP. It seems like what you mostly get with that package is.....less paint.
Exactly. Base has CFRP body color panels already where the WP has exposed CF. So, WP gets no weight savings and just adds to PAG's margin.

But you need to get the WP to select the magnesium wheel option. Together that is a grand total of $31,050. It seems like most people will probably either get neither or both rather than getting just the WP. But, I'm keeping it in my configuration for the moment.
Don't bank on it. The configurator is in flux. When it first launched the other day Mag wheels and WP were not interlinked.
I hear ya on the Mag wheels though: too expensive to drive on.
As for me... as far as I'm concerned the only option the 4RS needs is the Fire Extinguisher. Leather, stripes, WP just add cost and don't enhance its purpose as a drive-to-the-track track car.
It's going to be loud as shit inside. The ride - with some bushings replaced with solid joints - is going to suck except on a track or on billiard-smooth roads. It's compromised as a road car.
That written, I'd get one if I was a track rat. But, I'm not and I have too many 'occasional use' cars already.
It would look seriously bad ass collecting dust in my garage though.
