dkreidel is infamous around these parts
I tried to do something along the lines of what you are shooting at, only in natural brown. Although I eventually gave up trying to get the two-tone I was looking for, I later found out that I almost could have gotten what I wanted by ordering a black interior and then start adding natural brown - or in your case natural carrera red. You might wnat to sit down with the ordering guide again and try to get what you want by ordering deviating color seats (red) deviating color lower dash (red), etc, etc. Just a thought.

By the way - I'm thinking about ordering a Boxster in slate with a Carrera red and black interior - or perhaps starting with the two- tone black and gray interior and then start adding the red stuff.

Eric, thanks for the pic, I have actually seen that, and it's one of the reasons I'm planning on breaking up the red with a black upper dash, door trim, carpet, floor mats, and seat inlays. Just trying to envision it in my head.

Why are you ordering deviating upper dash when you could simply order two tone? Or is that just the code?

Make sure you get a black steering wheel.

Unfortunately there is no two tone option with black/carrera red, just black/stone, black/sand, and black terracotta. There is no option for a deviating steering wheel color.
