My M240i has similar silly overrun pops and burbles. The 718 we drove had the sport exhaust as well, and it sounded very like my car.

What options do you think are must-haves? I suspect my spouse will ultimately opt for the PDK (even though I was able to convince her to choose a stick for her Z3.)

My inclination is always to avoid over-sized wheels. I'd probably lean toward the Sport Chrono (I have similar functionality in the 2), and PASM would be nice, as well as 14-way Sport Seats. Everything else seems non-essential...

At any rate, this is true Perseveration (FC-style), as nothing will happen for at least a year or two.
