Of course everyone is entitled to modding their cars in tasteless, performance compromising ways that destroy the original intent of buying a specific car (RS) in the first place...

First of all, let me thank all of those who chose to understand my question for what it is and respond without the bitter cynical comments.
I simply wanted to know if the previous owner had taken out the speakers, which would have been an indication of possible extensive track use, which would lead me to check the engine further, such as dyno it for abuse.
My second concern was wether or not the dealer failed to disclose, which could have gotten me some $ back. That was it fellas...
I'm not adding speakers to the car, and even if I did, it would be completely justified.
I think those that complained really aren't the purists.
Cause if they had been, they would know like me, that after spending 13 to 14 hours driving the car, mostly on track in temperatures up to 117 degrees F, that the 2 hours drive home afterwards DEMANDS some music, if nothing else but to keep you awake and therefore alive.
As for the performance aspect, to say that 2 speakers would compromise performance is being completely ridiculous. I'll take you on in a car with 10 more speakers on track any day and show you how little that means.
You're better off working on your skills and loose some weight if you really wanna have more performance.
As for paying over sticker, I could not sleep for 3 days before the purchase, so yes it's a big purchase, but I did it because it's my passion and I am a real purist, and it was the ONLY way to get this car...
So there, let me thank those who supported me...

If you need a sterio buy another car!
To put such stuff in a RS Porsche is a shame for the History of Porsche and for what the RS was engineered for.
This car is all about saving weight, that's why it has no heavy luxury options!!
It is a homologation model for use in a range of racing series.
