Need to finalize my 991TTS order very soon. Currently have the car spec as GT Silver with Black interior. Trying to break up a succession of black exterior cars I have had.

Now toying with the idea of a GT Silver with combo expresso/black interior. I am 100% all P car guy, but feel that the 991TTS has moved up market (certainly in price!) and more of a GT. I just feel this might be a richer combo while admittedly less racy. Anyone seen this before, I have tried for web searches.

 

I have a GT Silver/black leather interior TTS coming as well. Most/all my sports cars have had black interiors, so I am fine with it. I also like the combo Carrera red/black interior. Enough red to be colorful, but toned down a bit by the upper black parts. I really like the CF trim, so I am also getting the illuminated CF door sills.

If you are willing to pay for it, you can get anything you wish through Porsche Exclusive.

2014 GT Silver Metallic Turbo S on the boat

 

I have seen a 997 turbo in the blk/espresso combo and it was awesome.

 

One other option is to get black interior with white stitching. I have it on my 991S and it looks great.

 

I am actually thinking for that same combination as an alternative. My Turbo S will be PTS Oryx white pearl.
My prefered interior is two-tone Black-Cinnamon brown, but i'm still waiting for details regarding the plastic parts in the interior, such as speaker grills and doorbins. Since Cinnamon brown is not a standard color, those plastic parts will probably be black and I don't want that. I am waiting for an email from Exclusive about that subject and what the possibillities are.

My alternative is Black with Espresso (no problem with plastic parts) or Black with Umber (not sure if that is an issue, it was a standard color on the 991).

I played around with photoshop to get an impression of the Black-Espresso interior (although with white exterior) and I think it looks nice and upmarket, with a lot of warmth.

The black / espresso combo does look good, Suzy! Deviating stitching?

Cheers,

 

Probably... Not 100% sure yet.

How long will PTS add to your order?

 

Somewhere around 6 months if it is a color that's checked for feasibility (in other words, a color that is on the PTS list). If not, it can take up to another 6 months additional.

Can you lease a PTS car so you don't have to take the depreciation risk? What is max you can residualize on a turbo S?

 

This is a question for someone that has some knowledge about leasing. That's unknown terrain for me.

Depending on the PTS color they can be tough to sell and discount can be rough.

 

Certainly true, although in my case didn't it make any differrence, but discounts here are in general different to the U.S., so it's not really comparable. White metallic is also not a difficult color for resale I guess...

Agreed. red/black interior is FANTASTIC!
