Makes so much sense on a Boxter. I'm starting to wonder though whether something more plain, like black, makes more sense in a tin-top 991.

I really wish you could get the red without the full leather

I can't say about the boot, because I have PDK, but with natural espresso leather, the shift-grip leather is the same espresso and the leather on the edges of the console is espresso also. I would expect the boot on a manual to be treated the same way.

Besides, if you want it to match the seats, just say so. You don't have to make the configurator agree. A lot of what you're talking about are 'X' options anyway. That means they've already pulled the unit into the Exclusive department. A red shift boot doesn't begin to stretch their abilities.

I had a gray Audi S5 cab with red/black interior and red top that I got more complements on than any car I have ever owned, including 6 Ferraris and a 993. The only reason I got rid of it was because I grew tired of the floppy paddle DGS gearbox for my daily driver.
