It's good to know that there really are "good guy" dealers that exist.

Here is my build:

I'll find out on Monday the expected delivery date, but it's supposed to be around January 2018.
Congrats!

Thanks Eduardo!

I saw your Signal Green GT3 today. I don't know how you let that go! It's stunning.

Anyone have a dealer offer them a chance to lock in a spot at MSRP if they purchase an odd-lot off the showroom floor (e.g. a "new" 2016 Pano or Cayenne that still hasn't sold), with an agreement that the dealer will buy it back once the GT3 is delivered? Essentially, a short term (and likely very expensive!) lease.

Configuration question, I'm sure its been covered elsewhere but I can't find it.

So the only colors for the stripe on the bucket seat is silver/grey or red. Is there anyway to CXX that?

What are you guys doing for leather stitching? unless you go with red or silver i think the silver stripe really ruins the color scheme in the interior. i wanted to go lava orange stitching to match the exterior..

If your ordering your car in November or after, my understanding is you will be able to order deviated stitching. Whether that also allows you to change the color of the seatbstripe remains unclear.

Unfortunately you have to custom tailor the entire seat to get it changed. Then you can choose almost anything for your center seat cushions, leather, piping etc. But it will cost you $8300!!! So best to have that done be an upholstery shop!

I was told the same thing. On top of that cost you still need to pay for the seat option as well.

Diviated stitching would be included in the full seat build.
