Love this idea, following.
750S, how will you configure yours?
So the new 750S is out and thought we could start a thread on how folks plan to spec their own, or spec a dream version.

I’m still figuring out my own. Most likely I will stay with a spider unless by some miracle they release a glass roof for the coupe.
I’ll likely get either black, supernova silver, or small chance I’ll get the Mercedes electro chrome blue. Forget the actual color name at the moment. If I get the blue I’ll get calipers to match. Not sure about caliper color for the black/silver, might keep it boring black just so I don’t need to see brake dust.
Interior is likely to be boring as hell black with no carbon, I like the contrast of silver metal. If I get the blue, I might get some matching mso blue bobs for some switchgear. I tend to keep my cars forever and for me, nothing holds up like black leather and stays new looking over time. My blue jeans tend to ruin any other color, sadly.
As for doodad options it will likely include, tech/luxe package (unless I go blue and then I might do an mso interior), upgraded radio, glass roof, upgraded brakes, 360 cameras, homelink, carbon fiber sill, electric comfort seats.
Thats all I have figured out for now but hoping to learn from others choices here.

Do you have an allocation? That sounds amazing!I’m still figuring out my own. Most likely I will stay with a spider unless by some miracle they release a glass roof for the coupe.

If you're going carbon/ceramic, don't sweat the calipers, there won't be any brake dust or discolouration.I’m still figuring out my own. Most likely I will stay with a spider unless by some miracle they release a glass roof for the coupe.

I’m getting the 750 S spider in supernova silver with silver vortex wheels and red brake calipers. I spec’d carbon fiber on most of the exterior non-body parts with the exception of the front splitter and the rear diffuser which will be gloss black. Interior will have a mix of leather and Alcantara in black with red pinstripes. I got the electric chromic roof, the upgraded stereo, 360° cameras, homelink, lift and other standard items. Am told to expect delivery first quarter of 24. Very excited!
I am waiting for the dealer to get a sample of Ice White. Seems like a new color that replaced glacier white.
Interior wise I like the Perf interior with Dove grey alcantara, but am also considering bespoke MSO interior.
However, this is getting really expensive and I just have to scale back on some options

Ok I’ll add it to the list!The cheque for the Senna brake contribution is in the mail.
Skip the senna brakes
get the full MSO bespoke interior

But sir, I learned what a good deal the MSO bespoke interior is from the internet
If one is spec'ing senna brakes then they also have to go for p1 bucket/senna seats. It doesn't make sense to have race brake system without the race seats.Skip the senna brakes

One can have senna/p1 bucket seats but don't really need the senna brakes. Any semi serious track person is going to swap out the OEM carbon brakes anyways. Track focus type people will value the seats more then the senna brakes.
I'd pump the $18K from the senna brakes into getting a real nice paint job (ie; if the paint you are getting is $12K and senna brakes for $18K then I'd just skip these two and put it into a paint job in the $30K range.
As alex also stated; you are probably going to be spending some dollars in the interior so might as well save on that and just pay a little more into the bespoke interior.
Some of the people who are giving advice already did the MSO besoke sessions (they just aren't disclosing it).But sir, I learned what a good deal the MSO bespoke interior is from the internet

Fades, blends, blurs, satin, patterns, liveries, custom paint development, or a colorstream
^. What he said . Lots of possibilities . Your dealer will already know how much each one of those things cost (or ballpark )What does a $30k paint job look like?
You people who chose to do it definitely have better idea what you are doing and what you like. I just can’t imagine going through the unlimited possibilities out of my tiny brain. I already have difficulties with choosing stucco color or room colors for my house. I’ll probably just stick with standard palette…
I had a decently early deposit down, I guess a couple months ago now? I asked for a year 2 allocation. So no specific allocation yet. But I've done my bit for god and country beta testing the 12C. This Time I want to get a boring later build.Do you have an allocation? That sounds amazing!
