finally worked through all my configurations and was able to come to terms with what i wanted...here's whats on top for a may delivery...
Premium Package Plus
BOSE® Audio Package
Agate Grey Metallic
Black leather interior
Deletion of Model Designation
SportDesign exterior mirrors
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS)
ParkAssist (front and rear)
Sport Exhaust System
7-speed Manual Transmission
20-inch Carrera S wheel
Instrument Dials in Black
Smoking package
Adaptive Sport Seats Plus (18-way)
Seat belts in Guards Red
SportDesign steering wheel
Steering wheel rim with deviating stitching
Interior package leather
Centre console trim leather
Porsche Crest on headrests
i should add that i am awaiting to see an incoming model that has the full interior in black and i wanted to see how the default stitch looks. if i find it too light, i will be doing deviated red stitch throughout.
renders from the configurator attached...i'm pumped to play!

Reason: more stuff
Great build! Did you consider the sport chrono package? Can't say I've figured out exactly what the dynamic engine mounts do, but SC gives you sport+ mode and a pretty neat rev matching feature which, in conjunction with the PSE, leads to pure driving bliss.
thanks! i did consider the SC but i find the chronograph visually annoying plus i was able to hear the ticking which bothered the hell out of me (yes, i was sitting in traffic...)...
The deviated stitching on the steering wheel looks awesome, by the way. Not to spend your money, but I think doing deviated stitching throughout, combined with the stitching on the wheel and the red belts (which I have too on a black interior) would look awesome.

if i could only begin to explain the agony that is trying to decide what to do with that...my problem is that there is no real-life example for me to go into and see if i like. the dealership doesn't have the color combination swatch for me to see so i'm doing it all sight unseen. i took the conservative route for fear of overdoing it and aesthetically ruining the interior environment. since the steering wheel is its own entity as are the seat belts, they can afford to be accented whereas the stitching really cannot be pick-and-chosen...for me, if i'm going to do the deviated stitch elsewhere, it has to be the front and rear seats, dashboard, the door trim and door handles and the rear side panels.
if i find the tone of the regular black interior stitching acceptable (as in as dark as the leather) then i will leave as is and pop the car with the accents. if the tone of the stitch is too light, then i'm going to go red stitch throughout

Configure a gt3 and you'll see the red stitching
Or alternatively a two tone interior 991 or a 50 anniversary special
In both cases they come with deviating colored stitching
Otherwise there are plenty of photos online including on this forum

its funny you mention that because i was just playing around with some photoshop to change the door trim stitch to black and leaving the red to just continue around the interior from the rear around the dash and back as you posted this...
if you zoom out enough, the door stitch disappears
