The custom deviated stitching is a nice new option IMO, especially for folks with yellow or orange cars that want it to match. And it's only $2k more than the red stitch option...

Unfortunately no blue or true green stitching (just acid green, which is yellowish).

And if I was doing Miami Blue, I'd be very tempted by those blue belts...

.. and don't forget the valve caps with a choice of silver or colour emblem

The leather transmission tunnel though ? ?

But I'm for ++1 for the deviated stitching choice. Hopefully we can get same option here in Aus !!... still waiting for our carbon mirror cap option!

- Window Triangle Trim in Carbon Fiber (to match the mirrors in CF)


- Transmission tunnel in leather

- Sport seatback shells in leather

I'm assuming the bucket seat stripe remains silver if you choose deviated stitching? Can anyone confirm?

This would be annoying depending on the stitching color.

My sales rep just informed me that my delivery date has been pushed out to June 2018. It was originally supposed to be December, 2017. I have a manual, PTS build. Has anyone else experienced this delay? My sales rep said to have your rep check the PPN and see if dates moved recently due to PTS.

This is what happened to me- obviously you aren't reading the PTS sticky thread, LOL!

You won't get any more info. until after the summer break when it should change from V180 to V2xx (frozen or changeable). There is just a skeleton crew at Porsche now- maybe they get through all the PTS requests (worldwide) but probably not until they get a full crew in September.

In the big picture, definitely true. But I will say just those Miami Blue seatbelt spruce up the interior nicely and take attention away from the seat stripes which I don't like. Also, the yellow stitching option makes getting Racing Yellow a possible option for me. But alas, I'm still waiting for an allocation as well haha.

I'd like to know this as well. That would be so nice if it's deleted, but my guess is it won't be.

I think the blue belts and white stripes look pretty good.

i'm curious, why post up pictures of the OLD black PDLS which is not available anymore, saying it's "not yet available".. this will only serve to confuse everyone more.

Why not post up the pictures of what is current (not past) and what is actually available today. The pictures should show the current all silver standard lights, and then black background with grey ring and silver lights of the PDLS, plus the two LED options. We have no news whatsoever that black PDLS xenon lights are coming.

^^ Gotcha. Your explanation is more confusing

Black PDLS is on the GTS. I'm sure will be available in the next 6 months. Can always buy them after the fact and do a swap. That's an option.

What does the chaos soul guru say? He still around?

Anyway, new subject now!!

No... 991.2 GTS come with PDLS, same as the optional PDLS on the 991.2 GT3. The base non-PDLS are all silver, while the optional PDLS is black inside housing walls but chrome lens surround and silver perimeter still.

What he posted is NOT CORRECT!!!

Argh.. everyone means so well but.. ok, no big deal. I'm way to wound up about this clearly.

Anyone seen the new bronze headlight option?.. no really.. they're coming too.
