The Official Interior Pictures Thread

In my case I ordered a 911R leather wheel to replace my Race-Tex wheel. It supposedly has the same GT Silver stitching. The slightly cheaper option is to order a 991.2 GT3 wheel, but that comes with platinum grey stitching which is just a shade off from GT silver.

Also, at least when I ordered my car, I think the extended stitching didn't have the same color choices as the stock stitching (i.e. you can't get GT Silver stitching). Porsche definitely makes some strange choices on what is/is not available. I think there was a thread in the 992 GT3 forum about this too. Apparently if you specced the leather wheel, it came with matching deviated stitching on the touring but black stitching on the winged car. But then some winged cars got delivered with deviated stitching (presumably due to a factory error, I guess the factory workers are just as confused as we are about this).

It is about 3.5k more expensive than the base Silver package, for basically the exact same thing in a different color.

I checked out a 2 years old GT4 today with 13k miles. The RaceTex was absolutely filthy. It was disgusting. No choice but to go Deviated Stitching\Leather

If you are going to go with the Extended Deviated Stitching package you should go with a unique and colorful choice rather than just 'Silver'. What exterior color will you be going with? Also, was told by Frank at Exclusive Option that 'Silver' in GT4/Spyder is not 'GT Silver' but is 'Platinum', not sure if it's the same shade from 981. Had a custom shift boot made by Exclusive Option with 'GT Silver' but it was not a match, sent my center console cover to them and they matched it with 'Platinum'.
I really liked the yellow I saw today on the GT4 - but yellow stitching requires yellow calipers, and I don't want the PCCB, and I won't paint my calipers yellow (any other color is fine).
I REALLY want Orange - but no matching seat belts.
Looking for ideas

At first, I wanted Lizard Green, but then after seeing it in photos, I felt it is a bit "too much".

Yellow exterior is a bit of a difficult color to match with other colors in terms of interior color (if it was available on GT4/Spyder) or stitching color.
Lizard Green stitching with Python would look great, not sure how it would work with Yellow exterior though. Lizard Green would look pretty awesome and unique on Gentian Blue with light green calipers as well.

And yes, definitely agree that if ponying up for the extended stitching package, choosing a more exciting color is a great idea. I was strongly considering Speed Blue (apparently same color as shark blue according to Porsche exclusive) for my build, but in the end pretty happy with the standard silver.

I was also going to suggest Orange stitching with Yellow exterior. You can always spec black calipers if you want iron rotors. No belts or door pulls in Orange unfortunately but it may be a bit too bright like that perhaps?

options for exterior are Gentian Blue, Carrera White or Chalk

Sorry, I wasn't clear, the GT4 I saw today was gentian with gold wheels (it looked amazing btw), the interior was the yellow stitching package and it looked amazing too (but didn't work with the exterior in my opinion)

Perhaps his hygiene or eating habits contributed…who knows.
Mine looks as delivered, I’ve seen decade old GT cars that are fine.
My 987 Spyder with leather had a bunch of gouges in the steering wheel and grab handle, so nothing is immune.
