Duh. Why didn't I think of that? Sure, I just checked a pic of the 991 key and it shows a frunk open icon, while the Cayenne key has a hatch. Problem solved.

Hatch vs. frunk picture makes a ton of sense. Wow, this forum is actually practically useful! One first-world problem at a time...

Yea, it's pretty insane when you put it that way.. But it really is $5k for red stitching. I still need to understand how much extra alcantara is added when you select full leather... I would like an all grey interior with lots of alcantara.

Go to the configurator under the interior tab with either seat and switch back and forth between the standard interior and the extra cost "and leather interior". In addition to the extra leather you get on top of the dash and doors, you'll see the door panels and bottom of dash and the whole glovebox change from vinyl to alcantera. You also will get aluminum trim on the doors as well.

^^What Mike said...but also, make sure that you are using the "3D" version of the configurator. A lot more detail is shown in that mode.

Leather on dash, doors, PCM trim, etc. as stated above and rear quarters. And, lots of added Alcantara with Full Leather. I don't like the look of the interior without it.

I like the red stitching, but don't think it is $1500 nicer than the off white stitch.

You found a car!?!

Congrats!

Not sure what extended leather is either. Configurator doesn't explain well.

3D on a Mac is nice.

Wheres the option to select 'Black vs. Chrome ' on the lights. I didn't see that on the US Configurator.

No biggie, I'm getting ridiculous w ants in the pants as the delivery date closes.. but since I'm going all out with the 600 clear rears, 3100 PDL+ .. and the 340 lamp washers in color of car.. I might as well go all the way on this suicide mission.. . LOL..

Yes, you need IE and it will download the latest UnityWebPlayer plug in. It works great on my Win7 Tower w/ 64gb ram and 8-core i7...LOL

Just tried in on my mac retina vw-ware win-7 and was much slower, but it worked. Needs the turbo to run well.. LOL..

On the "Options" tab, Exterior. There are check boxes for:

Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS)
Bi-Xenon Headlights in Black incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS)
LED Headlights incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus)

The PDLS option adds the PDLS functionality to the stock Bi-Xenon headlights. Stock lights have a shiney trim PDLS have a grey trim, black is black and LEDs are yet another shade of gray.

Excellent Ryan! Just saw it thx! --Once you select 'LED PDLS+' there is no option to add black. iT looks like it comes in dark grey which is cool.

I saw a live Turbo S with the LED-PDL+, and they looked Chrome -- I went to the Turbo Configurator, and selected the LED PDLS+ (cool, $2,340 vs. $3,100 for gt3) but id didn't have a picture. - So I'm hoping the GT3's are really grey vs. the Turbo's chrome..

Spending way to much time on this sheit. -- How did I get like this.. LOL.... The Journey is always the best part anyways.... Haaaa

It looks like you get alcantara A-Pillars with the full leather option as well.
