will ask about flap color and wraps. But I’d be very surprised if they’re doing full wraps. What would you ask for exactly? AFIK factory has only approved to do the side stripes in single or two-tone color, the Porsche motor sports single top stripe. TBD is martini and 911R style too stripes, the latter of which is less likely I was told last spring.

Fwiw I received different information on the seat stripes from my dealer, indicating they would be deleted. I'll try to find out where they got the info.

That's helpful - thank you. What about the stitching around the gearshift on manual transmission cars? In the 3D configurator that remains silver even if you select deviated.

Answers...
Q: what does model designation delete do on Touring? (Configurator shows no change).
A: NOTHING at all. It's an error on the configurator that the option is even available to select in combination with Touring Package.
Q: on black touring pkg, is gurney flap black or painted body color? (2d/3D configurator show different)
A: Gurney flap is body color. "Never trust the 2D configurator."
Q: What's deal with the black aluminum interior trim on Touring Pkg?
A: It is BLACK aluminum, much darker than Anthracite aluminum, similar to if not identical to what was in the 991.1 GTS.
Q: For CXX seats are there other tartans available?
a: NO. However there is a new houndstooth (graphite blue/chalk), which they don't have any samples of yet to show. Other than that, there are the 2 existing houndstooths, which are black/silver and agate grey/geyser grey. Besides those 3 houndstooth cloth options, you can also choose from 3 Alcantara options (black, silver, lava orange as used on RS), and all standard 911 leathers. "Microfiber" as formerly an option on the GT3 RS was really just Alcantara that wasn't branded as Alcantara; it's no longer avail.
Q: Is decorative interior stitching in deviated color avail. w/Touring? (configurator won’t allow)
A: NO, “not at this time". That is, w/Touring Package, only stitching colors available are black stitching (standard) or Red stitching (optional in configurator, $1500). The $3500 option in configurator to pick other colors of deviated stitching isn't available in combination with the Touring Package, period.
Q: What stripes and wraps are available from factory on 991.2 GT3?
A: Approved are the side stripes w/PORSCHE logo (as seen on 911R) in either single color to two-tone (stripes one color, PORSCHE logo another color), Martini set, and a single tapered narrow Motorsports-style centered top-stripe in choice of color. The parallel 911R-style top stripes are NOT available on GT3. Long story on that: Before this summer, it was thought NO they wouldn't offer; then in mid-summer PAG approved them for GT3 and some customer orders were put in with them included, but before any of those cars were actually produced with them, PAG corporate changed mind and did a STOP order so those customers had to get a disappointing call explaining and none of them got them. Apparently PAG doesn't want to sanction making 911R-knock-offs is all I can assume to explain this.
Q: Is CXX doing wraps?
A: NO. ("Martini" livery is closest factory option to a wrap since it's a lot of stuff, but no full wrap options on offer from factory.)
Q: Are CF mirror caps available w/PTS? (configurator won’t allow)
A: As of just today, YES, but only via CXX, price is $1875 for the CF mirror caps + separate cost to paint mirror lower section to the PTS color, which is $2435. Or approx. $4,220 total. Note: You can opt to just have the CF mirror cap only w/o having the lower mirror pieces painted to match PTS body color, in which case the lower parts would stay standard matte black as they are w/o CF mirrors options.
Q: What's the deal with the apparently darker aluminum door sill on Touring?
A: Confirmed that YES, it is indeed a dark aluminum that's different from the bright silver aluminum as standard on regular (winged) GT3. Apparently, it's similar to Anthracite aluminum. You can still select the other optional door sills on Touring if you prefer (i.e., CF, CF illuminated, Stainless Steel illuminated, etc.), but you cannot get the special dark aluminum door sills any way other than standard as shown unless you go CXX with the door sills, which ends up being much more expensive, over $5K (i.e., having personalized door sills where the logo is actually etched out of the metal as opposed to regular option in configure for personalized door sills which is just a plastic insert.
Q: Price of CXX seats?
A: $8750. (not $10,000 as someone recently reported on this forum).
Q: On CXX seats, can I get something other than "GT3" script and/or embossed Porsche crest on the headrests (i.e., "touring" script logo)?
A: NO, they won't allow anything else, but I'm the second person who has asked this design consultant this same question who wanted "touring" script on the headrests.
Q: PTS process?
A: Too much to write here and I'd rather not get into it. My head is still spinning. PM me if you really want to discuss (Eduardo).

I was the guy that said 10K in my write up from Atlanta. That is the only answer I received that varies from Lapis. I was told 10K at Atlanta while configuring my car, they told 10K afterwards in an email. Dont get me wrong, I hope 9500 or 8750 is correct.

The only answer I can add here is I begged for back seats on the Touring, they said no way now, no way 6 months from now.
