Deviating Stiching

[oc997]

I would get the whole thing done. You cant just get partial it looks terrible!!!

Mkonigs-I have a 2007 Turbo, GT Silver/Blk leather interior and it was ordered with GT Silver Stitching! Here is what it has with price info:

GT Silver stitching Front/Rear Seats-$940
Dashboard-$240
Door Stitching-$160
Door Handle Stitching-$470
Left and Right Side Center Console-$160
Rear Left/Right Side Panel Stitching-$310
Inner Sills Leather with Stitching-$585
Thicker Steering Wheel with GT Silver stitching-$930
Storage Lid with Turbo Logo-$293
All Exclusive Options in Deviated GT Silver-$290
Does not have deviated stitching on leather shifter boot and handbrake but not noticeable...GT Silver stitching is drop-dead gorgeous and really sets off the interior. First comments usually about the interior stitching. GO FOR IT!

When it comes to deviated stitching, you have to do it all or not at all. I have not seen silver stitching in person so I am not sure whether or not it "pops" enough to warrant the ridiculous cost. Most people order white, yellow, or red stitching with black leather due to the high contrast of these colors. It is your car so make sure you get what you want.

My car has lots of yellow stitching and here are a few photos.

Deviated Stitching does make the car really stand out , if done well . You either do well or make your interior look like a circus of colors .
On this note , I am about to sell the 911 C2 that I have for the 997.2 Turbo with manual tranny . Thinking of Aqua Blue exterior with black interior (all leather) and red stitching . Sparkhill and IMCARNUT helped me a lot when I was configuring the 997.1 TT . Can they please chime in with their advice ? Will the Blue w/ black interior and red stitching look good or stupid ? I think its a bold choice , albeit a unique one .

If you want my opinion -- that is way too much color in one car!!

I opted for deviated Cobalt Blue stitching on my '09 997 GT2 with full 'all options' dark grey natural leather interior, leather arm rest with logo, large carbon pack. Additionally, Porsche Exclusives gloss black door openers gear lever surround. Exterior in Midnight Blue.
I'm very happy the way it turned out and with the cost.

I have seen more circus Pcars!
People just have poor taste or figure hey its an option I will get it. IMO, it's overkill.

Not to mention, the price is just silly.

Here is what I did:

Will that same yellow combo look good on a aqua blue 997.2 Turbo?

[imcarnuts]

My car has silver stitching but with cocoa. I would say more subtle than pop. Still, I think it looks great because it is subtle. Others probably would say it is a waste of money because it does not pop. It is all or nothing unless you are going to do some areas that have stitching in carbon.

Why doesn't Porsche just offer a single Deviated Stitching Option that covers all or most of the interior? One (reasonable) price without all the confusion would be great. I believe Ferrari charges around $400 or so to change the interior stitching color.. one option, done.

How many people want just the doors/dash and not the seats, or the seats only, etc.? Why make stitching an a la carte option that can lead to mistakes during the ordering or building process? Porsche already offers plenty of other options to make money on.. they have to charge a ridiculous amount on individual stitching color changes and make it a pita too??

[sparkhill]

This thread is really showcasing some great options!
