Soooooooooooooooooooo good. First time I've seen the leather seat backs which I see as a must have on this car. Did you do anything to get the deviated stitching on the seatbacks or was that included in the upcharge for the leather backs?

Once you select the leather with yellow deviated thread for the interior additional leather is deviated same color at no upcharge. Examples are leather seatbacks, sill cover, and steering wheel. Strangely though the extended deviated dash was a thread select.

Yes it does, lighter in the bright sunlight ... however much of that is camera exposure correction and scene management. It’s a deep bright yellow.

Your car looks awesome. Normally not a huge yellow fan but this spec looks really great. Yellow/silver is perfect.

Do you still have your build code by chance? Did dev stitching come automatically when you optioned the leather steering case behind the wheel?

Think this was my last spec at freeze date. Can’t open it right now.

Anyway, think the only Exclusive Option I had to designate a thread was on the extended dash. My SA tells me that isn’t available any more. Sad, because it really pops and the end caps are sweet.

Remember, on Red/Yellow you pay $1500 upcharge for deviated stitching.

Bottomline, selecting the leather steering casing, door sills, door coves, seat backs, etc..all were automatically matched to yellow thread. I double checked this couple times with my SA because as you know there are repeat options under leather deviated...that are more expensive.

If you want to see some yellow deviated thread hit me up, I couldn’t find too many pictures when I was ordering.

I can’t emphasize how spectacular it is sitting in here...visually and texture it’s eye watering.

Sure, post more pics here. I'm sure many will appreciate.

You went full yellow with stitching, gauges, trim, belts, the works -- there's no yellow interior option that you didn't tick, I think. I'm wondering if there's a point of "too much yellow" inside. I was thinking maybe full yellow stitch but keep the trim, belts, and gauges black?

Yellow is one of my top exterior color picks along with Python or Silver. I love my yellow 6gt3 -- always makes me smile. Your yellow Spyder looks stunning!
