I had alcantara on my .2 GT3 and really liked the feel. Did not have an issue with getting it grubby. As Arth states, there are ways of keeping it clean.

I have alcantara on my .2 gt3, and I think it is important to the feel and look of this particular model...just my $.02. Also, I am leaning toward carbon inside the car. I don't have that on my current gt3, and typically I am not into it. But I find the aluminum standard trim on the 991 much brighter/shinier then my standard trim on the .2 gt3. I feel that carbon will darken it up in there a bit and give a more serious tone....

not fond of the bright aluminum trim either. my .2 3 had that as well.

this time I am getting Anthracite Aluminum Trim (def. darker), which covers the dash, doors and center console piece around the PDK lever; only $325.

other very desirable option for me was to add leather trim in the aforementioned places. really darkens but believe there is still enough contrast. $ goes up of course.

the extra leather in addition to Full Leather really adds a rich look without taking way from the sporting nature of the car.

My .2 was Alcantara and loved it and I originally had Alcanatra but after reading the RL feedback I switched over to leather which was a mistake. Like Arth said it feels great. My .2 was 4 yrs old and when I sold it the Alcantara looked brand new with 16K miles on the clock.

Next time I am definitely going Alcantara.

Frayed, if you want leather let me know. We can swap.

thanks for info. sorry to highjack thread. I need to check into that on the configurator. I ignored all aluminum options because I like a more "business like" darker look inside. I went straight to carbon. I'll go research the anthracite. Thanks again

Where is Anthracite available ?

November 28, 2014 delivery!!!

To me, the glossy carbon fiber is anything but business-like - unless you're in show business.

Try looking under Options / Aluminum on the configurator.

Here's a pic of anthracite aluminum trim.


Anthracite aluminum trim - not mine.

I like that anthracite...I will need to go try to find some in person to see... we will have to agree to disagree that the carbon fiber is shinier/brighter than the previous aluminum...

I'm not a fan of the carbon trim, but went it this time because of the buckets. It's also an easy option to change after delivery.

Really like the look feel of Alcantara and wouldn't take leather option on gt3. A packet of hand wipes/freshner towels is nice in car anyway and helps on those occasions if hands unclean making sure s/wheel stays in best condition.

Sorry for off topic but talking interior trim, I've ticked painted in exterior colour which is GT Silver. Anyone help with photos of it?

You ticked the right seats. The rest is just noise.

Someone said here that the alcantara steering wheel is the complete GFE experience. If you don't like it, you can upgrade it to a 918 style steering wheel that would probably be available with the 992 GT3.

damn, i like the cup holder trim in that anthracite.

I can't really tell the difference from regular vs anthracite on the center console. Does it extend to wrap around the PCM screen, or does it just run down the silver trim around the gearshift to the arm rest/storage area?

Just the latter...
