Just looking for opinions. Got this one in the pipeline. The lock date is not for another month. I really like the yellow on blue but my GF says thinks that it will get old over time. She does understand why I like it and she even likes it. But again, just thinks it will get old. Ignore the red Calipers as they would be painted yellow immediately or I could opt for the black ones(for a fee of course). The other one is silver stitching. More neutral. More subdued. More classic and classy. I do like it but damn....I like that yellow on blue. What say y'all????

I am going with the yellow stitching myself (and yellow seat belts) as it really pops, yet still is classy and not overstated inside (as long as you stay with trim pieces that are not color matched), however my exterior is GT Silver and I am getting the PCCB's with the yellow calipers, so it all ties together nicely.

I think it will look fine as long as the calipers are black or yellow and don't stay red. The stitching (with or without the seat belts to match) is still subtle enough and keeps it on the classy side. I think where it gets to be too much and on the tacky/cheap side is when the interior trim pieces are color matched.

 

I don't really have any need for PCCBs and not gonna pay that kind of money to get a different caliper color. I live in a large metropolitan area and there are numeros folks that can paint or powdercoat calipers. And they will be yellow. I am sure yours will look awesome!!!

 

Have you thought of doing red stitching to match the black calipers? Or even the Spyder interior?

 

I have. I really want Shark Blue. I do think the red against the blue is a little too much contrast...whether it be stitching or the Spyder Classic. If I were going silver or white or Chalk, I would go with the Spyder Classic interior. Silver is about my least favorite car color. But I think it looks fantastic on A Porsche....especially with the Spyder Classic interior. Even more badass with the buckets. There was a used 2020 that went through my dealership that I really should have bought(make no mistake, I am thrilled to be able to spec my own....especialy in Shark Blue). It was before I realized the inventory shortage. Anyway, it was GT silver with buckets and Spyder Classic interior. F*****g awesome. But I honestly don't want the buckets. They are a PIA to get in and out. And I rejected the car based on that. A mistake on my part! But like I said, no regrets as I will be getting the car exactly how I want.

 

Stick to this plan!

 

Then why the post asking for opinions?

 

Because I am a little stuck between the yellow stitching and silver stitching and just looking for opinions....like I said.

 

If I were doing Shark Bue, my choice would be yellow.
Add PDLS and or PDLS+ And now you’re talking...

 

As you think about which to color to go with, don't underestimate the odds you will trade this one in long before your choice gets old!

PS. Note that lock dates are known to move up as they get closer. That is to say, don't delay if you want to make any changes.

 

Yellow stitching with yellow calipers. More color pop.

Silver stitching with black calipers. Less pop.

Add matching belts if desired.

Problem solved.

 

Thanks. My SA alluded to that. I will contact him tomorrow and nail down that build with the yellow stitching.

 

Just curious....why? We do have a Cayenne with PDLS+ and I do understand how badass the system is. But this car won't see darkness very often. And I would imagine the base lights are adequate should I end up after sundown. Now I have heard that people order these packages based on how they look in daylight. Is that what you are getting at?

 

The shark with yellow highlights interior is currently a close second on my list...behind a dedicated red build (with plat wheels). Because red onez go fasta!

 

Of course the base lights are adequate, but they remind me (a little too much) of my 05 GTI MKv. Personally, I like the red with shark blue.
