Default Carrera T Full Leather?

When you order the Carrera T interior package and select full leather with the fabric inserts, what exactly changes to leather covered material for $4200?

Just dash, doors, back panels?

I did some searching through some past posts and am still confused.

The dash, lower door panels and rear panels will be covered in leather. And yes, it’s worth it

And also the top of the doors and glove box.

All with deviated stitching.

I love it.

It’s worth it. Car look amazing with it. You don’t want plastic dash on 115k car.

Guards red outside. Carrera T interior package inside. That has red striped fabric centers, black leather bolsters. Red stitching. Red seat belts. Etc.

Then I am doing the leather column as well.

I saw photos of a similar build online. Looked great. Fingers crossed.

It will be a 2019 delivered hopefully around Labor Day.

I went bold. GR with PCCB and yellow leather interior with T package. In Watching INDY the DHL car used red and yellow which are their corporate colors and I thought looked great. May get the Agate side Carrera T decal changed to speed yellow also did SC in speed yellow.

That should be a hot look too. I wish red calipers were an option but the black ones sort of match the mirrors and door trim so who knows.

Yes get the leather. I'm not a fan of the standard interior. It is from my experience is less durable (warps/ delaminates easier)...kinda counter-intuitive because you'd think plastic would hold up better. The leather has nice 'character seams/ wrinkles,' but its my understanding that those are fake (real leather is sanded, imprinted, painted, and coated with protective polymer). The grade varies on different parts...steering wheel and seats are the highest grade, but other parts are lower.

Not many cars that you can still get full leather interior now-a-days and its becoming more of a rarity. I wouldn't miss the opportunity.

If you get the T interior package then this is true and adding on full leather for the $4200 completes it around the car. Completely worth it to get both the T interior package + full leather.
