Leather trim down the center

Can someone double check this for me?

If I order:

CDZ Gear Lever Trim Leather
CUV Storage comprtment Lid with Model Logo in leather
XMZ Rear Center console in leather

Am I missing any leather pieces down the middle (besides the gearshift and handbrake)?

I'm so frustrated with the options guide...I wish I could actually SEE the options for themselves...the updated Porsche Visualizer for the ordering system at the dealership gives such a small image

You've got it all...

This is CUV


I don't have a picture of CDZ but someone else will post one here I'm sure.

I'll try to take a picture of XMZ

Wow, that sucks. It does look great though. Drove a white TT yesterday with everything except CDZ and it looks tremendous.

I was just thinking as long as you've been pushed back is there anything else you want to add? Maybe leather door finishers? Looks real nice as well.

Chris...I'm afraid that if I screw with the options anymore, my car's production date will be pushed back. When I get home, I'll check my printout and post a list of everything I have. Like most people, I broke up options into the "hard" options...those things that enhance driving experience...ie PCCB, Sports Chrono, etc....and "soft" options...or things that were more "eye candy." Anyways...I'll post tonite. thanks

That happened to me too, my order got pushed back from 8/1 to 10/16 but ended up being pulled up to 9/16 in the end. All that because I kept adding/changing my order.

Were you at least able to get the leather rear console too?

Oh, I thought you already had the center console - realize you don't. Bite the bullet and get it. It looks great! It's already delayed. this shouldn't add much more to it.

I did the full leather interior, including the entire center console, and then went bananas by doing the leather roof and front ceiling lights and rearview.....

Did not like that alcantara roof....

The full leather can add a bunch of time I would assume since its time consuming craftsmanship.

Be patient its totally worth it....

Just curious, what is your opinion of the leather rear view mirror? Is it worth the extra cost? Also with the headliner option, do the pilliars also come with leather? I always thought that the pilliars (a,b and c) already were leather w/full leather option?

The leather rear view is not necessary - even if the headliner is done (but the center ceiling lighting and the sun visors in leather are critical since they all in the line of sight together and if the headliner is in leather I wanted everything else in leather to match). The rearview leather can really only be seen from the outside and only the rim around the mirror on the inside.

The abc pillars come in leather if you do the headliner - they do not come in the full leather interior - I believe the abc pillars can also be done independently of the headliner.

mix and match......
