Correct? IF SO SHOOOOOT.

It's not as if you have to pay $8500 and all you get is the stripe deleted. Having said that, of all you want is the stripe deleted, I was told by a Porsche Exclusive design consultant at PEC Atlanta 3 weeks ago that the stripe delete will likely be included with the soon-to-be optional deviated stitching package that will make deviated stitching throughout the interior available in colors other than the standard platinum silver or the currently optional Guards Red, which are the two colors the offending stripe are keyed to. That is, opt for the deviated stitching package in, say, yellow, and boom, the seat stripe disappears and the standard LWB seat inserts go back to plain black alcantara as they were standard on the 991.1 GT3 and RS. The cost: about $5600 (final price to be determined by mid-June, but that was the price for it on the 991.1 GT3 RS, according to the same Porsche rep I spoke with again today by phone). Cheaper than $8500, and you get all the stitching on the interior that would normally be platinum silver in the deviated color you choose. What's unlikely, unfortunately, is Porsche offering a free or cheap stripe delete option for the LWBs.

I think that you could ask for anything.
The only rule that is 100% sure is that you can not have what you don't ask

So there are many many custom combinations.

Important to note: the $8500 custom tailored seat option doesn't inlclude custom tailoring the rest of the stitching or leather or alcantara in the car, just the seats. So if you get creative with the seats, you may force yourself into a much more expensive custom tailoring process to get the rest of the interior to match, since to do so you'd have to custom tailor the door cards, upper dash, lower dash, steering wheel, etc, which can quickly add up to over $25K.

IMO, the stripe on the seat greatly enhances the interior. Porsche interiors are notoriously bland and often look cheap. Have more interior color accents distinguishes the car from the run of the mill 911's.

Here is an example.. wish I had the render to show but words will have to suffice:
-black interior with red stitching
-red stitched vents with brown leather vent slats
-brown leather LWB seats with red piping
-pepita inserts
-brown leather trim around dash (the part which is normally aluminum or carbon)

This way you take the brown from the CXX seats and repeat it on vent slats and trim for "minimal" (i put that in quotes as it's all relative) and the red piping on seats matches with red deviating stitching. Seats look well-integrated into interior without going full Monty CXX interior. I was at this appointment for a friend and this was an option discussed.. so, you either go PTS with stock interior, or for similar upcharge you go custom interior.. very few are taking the time to customize their interior.. you'll have a really original car

I mean full leather sofas with deviated stitching under 6000 bucks ?
