suggest model name on center console vs. crest - you have that covered on the seats.

dont forget gear lever trim leather.

Wait, I thought you already had a Turbo? Are you ordering another one?

You're definitely missing a lot of things in your options list so far. Things such as CDZ, gear shift trim in leather. DAW includes the gear shift trim in leather and also the aluminum gear shift ****/ebrake handle. I like DAX but apparently it's not possible to get this option in the US. This would be the only way for you to get deviated stitching all over. Be sure to get 09991 which ensures that all your exclusive options get deviated stitching. That's in addition to all the other stitching codes (I think there's 6 total). I would also recommend getting the axle lock differential because it really does help put the power down in the corners. I also think that the model logo center compartment cover looks better than the Porsche crest. You already have the crest in your headrest so why add another when you could have the model logo instead. It looks way cooler having "turbo" embossed on the leather cover. Since you're getting red seatbelts, stitching, etc, you might actually like it better if you got red painted seatbacks. Either that or go with leather seatbacks instead. There's a whole bunch of other options that you could get that'd make your interior look good. For example, check out the attached image. This would look KILLER with Meteor. Of course with a few minor tweaks.

Go for the Meteor/black with read stitching and add as many leather trim in the interior, I guess your paying for a 100 thousand + car so dont limit your self with the options and dont do it too much, just make it nicely optioned.

the problem is you can leather rap everything and i think its kinda crazy... what is tasteful to rap? I think rapping the air vents is just insane in my opinion and just a waist of money.

Any suggestions?


thanks!

Door finishers, seat belt buckles, rear view mirror, inner door sills, part next to the gear **** depends on a Tip S car or a 6MT. The other packages or parts are too expensive and not worth it, again It will make the car not worth it and best spent on aftermarket parts to spicen it up or add tint's and clear 3m film later on.

No problem forgot to add make sure you get the Turbo logo on the armrest, Porsche crests on the headrests, PCM in leather and steering column in leather.

yes it will be in black with red stitching to match with the other stitched trim, PCM is the screen and radio controls background in leather rather than that boring Grey hue.
