Are you equating Arctic Grey stitching with White?

Not sure if you are. The Arctic Grey stitching is significantly darker than how it’s depicted on the Configurator. It’s like a medium-dark blue-grey stitch. It’s definitely not white-ish in color.

The context for my comments is that if the leather interior option is chosen, as standard the stitching can either be Carmine Red or Arctic Grey. Is this not the case in Australia?

Edit:
I just consulted the configurator for Australia. Looks like your stitching leather interior options also come either with Carmine Red or Arctic Grey stitching. Here are some photos of exactly what Arctic Grey looks like. The lettering on “Weissach” is in Arctic Grey thread. The stitching looks exactly like it. There are also photos of the Arctic Grey stitching itself.

yes you can do guards red door pull. Yeah good idea to change seat inserts, but the Weissach logo and stitching (there’s a Lot of it in WP!) will stay carmine, wonde4 if it will look washed out against the GR.

Extended Deviated Stitching Package in Guards Red would change the Weissach threading to Guards Red.

yeah, I’ll need to play with it on the configurator. It’s a cool 5 grand as an option, plus you have to add the extra colour pulls etc ….adds up fast!

Remember, once you do that, you need to add the door pull (via CXX) and the seat inserts back a la carte.
