Deviating yellow stiching looks fantastic when your brakes are yellow...Get black seats with yellow deviating stiching....At least it looked great on my black/black lambo with yellow calipers and deviating yellow stiching

I like the look of the standard stitching - a low-key contrast that is not too overboard. Same in my E55

I think it depends on how long you plan to keep the car. Initially the stitching will look awesome, but often times some of these options that add alot of flare really start to make the car look cheesy over time. I've been looking through alot of the 996TTs and some of the interiors, while probably eye-catching in their day, become an eye sore.

Take a complete black leather interior for comparison. Sure its not as eye catching when you first get the car, but it definitely stays classy longer. If you plan to baby it and not drive it much or maybe get rid of it after a few years go for it. If its here for the long haul, I dunno doesnt hurt to goto the dealer and check out a few interiors to see if it's something thats worth it for the long haul.

I guess that is fine if you want to follow the rest of the herd. Sometimes it is nice to have a change and be a little different. Especially in a Porsche 997TT, you should have a little bit of a wild side.

A crazy idea would be having the stitching coloured in the same orange as the GT3 RS with natural black interiors...and orange for the seat belts as well...is that possible to make?? Would be my 1st choice ever!
