I'm pricing out my expected 1 of 1 build and debating whether the ACR interior option of $6000 is worth its value, specifically the alcantara seats. For those who track their cars, do you find the stock seats adequately bolstered and supportive?

My initial reaction is to get the non-ACR interior and invest that money into a decent set of Recaro seats for a fraction of what the ACR option costs. Figured a proper 5 or 6-pt harness with something like a SPG seat would be worlds better than what OEM has to offer.

Thoughts?

The only issue with not getting the ACR interior, is that if you buy the ACR interior the Carbon ceramic brake package is included at no cost. If you do a 1 of 1 without the ACR interior, then you will have to pony up $8500.00 to get the carbon ceramic brake package. I know this sounds wrong, however if you read the fine print on the 1 of 1 design page you will see this. Also if you look at the inventory at Roanoke Motors CJD, you will see some 1 of 1 cars that don't have the ACR interior. These cars clearly show the extra $8500.00 charge for carbon ceramic brakes. Look at the window stickers on the Roanoke web site.
I think it would be cheaper to just change the seats in the ACR interior, rather than pay $8500.00 for the carbon ceramic brakes without the ACR interior.--Just my 2 cents --Dave

Excellent point, enough said! I had forgotten about the "free" carbon brake package with the interior.

The ACR Interior does not just include the seats , it is as stated the Interior --so door panels , steering wheel and more. The Carbon Ceramics are essentially free , but must be ordered correctly or the car can still come with the standard Brembo rotors. The car has even more option choices over the last few days, so important to chat with someone who really keeps up on the Beast. PM sent too.
