Yellow is my top choice, but red calipers and yellow dials is one too many color for a small car. I am not willing to pay the extra 8.5k just to tie the color together. I went with red dials and red chrono dial, red stitching looks really sharp in person, just be aware they don't offer contrast stitching on some of the options yet. Outside of performance, ceramic brake is great because there is no brake dust. Not have to stare at dirty rims does add to quite a bit to the daily experience with the car. But that is just me.

I did yellow gauges with my black interior. I don't think it works with the beige color.

I actually like the brake dust ... Kinda gives that rugged and tough look to the sports car...But that is just me...

yeah, not a beige person myself. had beige and gray cars back in the early 90s, never again. Porsche black looks more dark gray, which is very nice. I have yellow dial on my car now, can't see much, but I don't look ; D

That is one way to look at it. It is just one less thing to wash for me, so I can focus on cleaning the rest of the car ; D. But I didn't go with ceramic on the 991. I think the Platinum wheels will hide a lot of it.

Yes, for sure. Platinum wheels are a wise choice.

I have ordered white exterior (991 S Cab) with red top and red interior. Guages and sports chrono in white. Seat belts will be black.

Seat Belts

I'm looking at ordering a 2013 White C4S with black all leather interior, white gauges and sports chrono and red seat belts. Contemplating the idea of red or maybe grey stitching.

Thoughts????

I think if you want to go for contrast, the red or silver stitching would look good on black leather.

Only problem I see is that the red dials don't stand out enough on the red faces. The white faces would make the dials really stand out and they would also match the car color.
