Very nice bulld! Black looks perfect for the Turbo (S). If was in for a TTS, I think I would do almost the same configuration, probably with some additional leather and stitching inside though

Personally I would not go for clear taillights, but that's just a matter of taste. IMO it's too Aston Martin-ish and it looks a bit odd with the red reflectors underneath.

There's one other thing I noticed... No CF trim?

Hi Suzy,
I did not see any options on the configurator for CF trim, like around the shifter and the cup holder cover, etc. Here are the only choices off the Configurator below. Maybe this is a Porsche Exclusive thing only?

Funny thing is, in the Configurator, they show the S with CF trim on the center console and on the dash.

Heated Multifunction Steering Wheel in Carbon
$635
PDK gear selector in Carbon
$650
Door-Sill guards in Carbon

$1,275
Personalized Door-Sill Guards in Carbon, Illuminated

The CF trim comes as standard on the Turbo

The fact that you selected the leather package made me wondering why... I thought maybe because you didn't like the CF trim.

I would go with Basalt Black Metallic instead of pure black. Never a fan of solid black on cars.

i have exactly your same build , but without the white lights (don't like them- too toyota-ish) and without ventilation and glass roof .
I have window trim in aluminum and key in car color and some standard (in our market) like Turbo S on center console.

IMHO black (A1) looks much better than the basalt .

Thanks for letting me know about te standard CF trim. Probably in the standard equipment section, and I haven't read that!

Here is the revised order, sans the leather package (shifter and dash trim) and the clear taillights, and with added carbon fiber options. Please LMK if I left any carbon fiber out. I don't want the MF steering wheel, so no CF on that. I figure I can add the clear tail lights later.

Good point about the clear tail lights. I changed that. I can add them later if I want. Front side markers are clear, so I thought to match.

I would recommend to leave the fire extinguisher out. It's better to buy one aftermarket. The one you get from Porsche is a laugh and totally not woth the money IMO. Very small....
Everything else looks perfect, although I would consider basalt black indeed, since the plain black is a pain in the *** to clean. (Basalt a little less pain in the *** ) OTOH the plain black looks much darker and is real black, where the basalt is a little lighter.

I have an appointment at Zuffenhausen on friday. I'm curious what they have to say about it... First I want them to apologize and of course the possibility to get the car in Oryx White, before I decide if I want the car or not.

Why not the sunroof? You don't like sunroofs? I'm not quite a cabriolet type person, but I like some sun coming in once in a while.
