This will be one expensive turbo. Other than color seat belts, you may also consider Steering column casing leather, this piece is quite noticable with stitching.

That's sweet. I'll definately add that tomorrow.

Peter, I'll likely come see you in November when I'm back in Dallas.

Hussain, it's going to be a beauty the way you have it spec'd out - get it all, you won't be disappointed. You will love it all - enjoy it!

I have all the Carbon Fiber options in my car and love it, here's some photos for you:

Why not get natural grey leather. It feels/looks so much nicer than the black leather. And if you're thinking that it's grey, nope, it's 98% black. I'm not sure why Porsche calls it natural grey though. I say to get yellow seatbelts because it'd match the PCCB calipers and also maybe white speedo dials too because you seem to have a white theme going there. The only downside though is that the sport chrono dial will still be silver. And finally, add the sportshifter when you get it at the dealership. You should consider getting the black mats with yellow piping too. That would look really good. And it looks like you didn't get the leather headliner, the dome light in leather, the sun visor leather, instrument surround in leather, and the inner sill in leather. And finally, the last option I'd really recommend would be the Carbon Fiber illuminated door sill.

Atomic,

I'll look into the natural grey, I forgot about the dials in white and short shifter. I already got the carbon illuminated door sills.

The sportshifter is a dealer installed option now.

You'll definitely have to post pictures of your Turbo when it comes it. It's going to be one stunning car! Have you decided on wheels yet?

I'm leaning on some 20" HRE 841R Full Polish like I had on the 04 Turbo X50 previously. Or perhaps do the Techart appearance kit and the Black Formulas like the other thread!

I say if you're going with TechArt then get the wheels too. But if you're not going with those then get those HRE's.

make sure you talk to the dealer and have them also check off the stitching for the emergency brake and gear shifth box.....these items are not onthe regular order area......I found out the hard way.

You may deide to not order the dev. stitching because with the black leather the stitching is a very light grey......and the cost for the dev. stitching comes to about 3K.

Congrats Hussain!

As someone said before you should have the front lip painted in car colour...it's something small that makes difference.
Do you really need the module for telephone?

The techart kit is just STUNNING..you should have it

Hussain you got an amazing option in your new car "Mabrook" as I see you got the full leather interior which is option for around $3700 for little extra you can get custom color for your interior it's going to be around $1500 extra which is worth it. it's really nice to get something unique.

Don't even bother getting the front lip painted if you're going to add the Techart kit. It'll just cover those up.

Guys,

I added the Thicker steering wheel, white gauges and front lip painted. I'm back and forth on the Techart kit, so I'll decide later.

Abdullah,

I would go custom color on the interior, but since the theme is white/black, I can't think of a custom color that would really set off the interior other than black with white deviated stitching.
