I like the look of the colored gauges, EXCEPT for the fact that the screen to the right of center has to remain black. Obviously unavoidable, but that lack of symmetry ruins it for me.

Nice! Never seen it it yellow perhaps the only color I would trade for standard black on a red/black interior with CF. The white cluster bezel detail is lost with white gauges It's unique design to the turbo as well as the needle color . It pops more and looks a ton better than the GT cars.
I like watchable so this detail was huge..

So if you order colored gauges on a new 991 you are in for an increase of $1000 on every future repair for any detail of the cluster going out. And no doubt a longer wait time for the part.

That is why some of the packaging that Porsche does on options is annoying. For example the GTS interior package forces you to have special gauges. Not only a problem for options but might also affect functionality. The GTS interior package should be cosmetics forcing only.
I don't think its such a huge deal.
Seems easy enough- plus they look so good.
