I still remember those late nights thinking about which leather options to included. In the end, I just did full leather, extended dashboard, steering column, and painted air slants (which come with leather vents). Everything else didn’t seem worth it to me.

Can't wait to lock next week so I don't have to think about this anymore.

I remember feeling like that too

Now I just keep logging on here countless times per day as if that will force the car to arrive quicker...

Stick with it! I think the silver trim would look great on GT Silver and be more unique than the majority of the GT Silver spec cars out there.

Recently picked my sleeper in a very similar config. I was concerned silver trim on GT Silver might not have enough contrast, but am very pleased with combo in person, especially with silver wheels. I chose the standard LEDs because they look a bit darker than the standard Xenon but aren't as black as PDLS.






Deviated stitching is GT Silver:

On the touring, black stitching is standard. I saw samples side by side at PEC Atlanta and the differences between pebble, chalk, platinum, and gt silver were fairly subtle to my eye. I would say the gt silver and platinum grey threads are very close.

Thanks! I didn't realize black was standard in the Touring. So, the only option to get something other than black (or red) is to specify Extended Deviated Stitching for $3500.00.

The black is pretty slick, IMO. I paid $3500 on my wing’d GT3 for stealth black stitching... silly me!

I tried to spec the awesome black aluminum trim (also standard on the Touring) but that was a similar added cost so I passed in favor of leather trim.

Unlike on the 718, on the 911 there is no option available to make the sides of the console leather, not even currently under CXX.
I need to correct the information I posted above, based on an email I received today directly from PEC LA. PEC LA is now saying that if the extended leather option is ordered (code 39), that the sides of the console itself will also be leather (but not the flaps below the console unless code XZM is also ordered). I don't understand the inconsistent information. I know from this thread that many USA buyers have ordered the extended leather. If any would be so kind as to chime-in, please advise if the sides of your console (down from the dash break mid-way down the nav screen) are leather or vinyl. Many thanks.

I have A1black with silver trim and standard wheels and xenons. I liked this combo best. My interior is full leather, including seatbacks on the four ways. The center stack and sides of the console are also leather. I kept the black-faced gauges, along with the anthracite brushed aluminum trim, and black stitching. Added alcantara visors and belt outlets. Altogether love the black on black with the different textures and subtle contrasts. The remaining shiny bits in the interior go quite well with the exterior trim.

... to be clear, the sides of the center stack and the “lower transmission tunnel” are all leather.
