Default Luxor Beige interior question...

I think the Luxor Beige interior is beautiful, well two-toned now with the black center stack. (For some reason, I don't like the all-black interior on the 991, nor did I on the 997).
Question: Does anyone else think that the beige pdk lever looks out of place? Wouldn't it look better in black? (look at the Carerra S picture gallery on the porscheusa web site). Thanks.

(When I order my 991, I might change out the PDK gear lever.)

What about ordering the STEERING WHEEL and the PDK LEVER in black? Too extreme?

OK, for a comparison, go to the website and use the configurator to build your Porsche. Click on luxor beige interior. An interior photo comes up. Click on rotate picture at the top. Now you get an interior photograph with a manual transmission and a black/aluminum shifter. Compare this to the beige PDK shifter....

I went to the configurator, chose Luxor and full leather seating, and the image came up with black shifter:



I even clicked the PDK option and the image did not change.

I'm sure you can modify your build to get what you want, for a price.

This must be what you saw when you click the 'info' button beside the PDK option....

I'm sure you can get this in black, or swap it later.

A steering wheel in black goes with any interior color, will never look too extreme. The Sport Design Steering Wheel in black would look nice here.

The trim on the PDK lever is quite small, having it in black or beige does't really matter... It's sitting in a section of the console that is black anyway, so having the trim in black would look pretty good, it would definately not look out of place.
