You have a good point too, but the counter point to some future buyer of your car or any MKII is "Then you can always buy a new roller ordered to your specs for an MSRP of $86,000 or you can buy this one here now on sale for $74,000, but you have to like yellow with meatballs....."

BTW, the MKII that sold in Monterey had an unknown SBF in it, when it should have had an FE, and it was an early car and with only 50 miles on it, and will likely have a few sorting issues to keep the new owner busy. Still a good deal nonetheless.
