That's a great looking car Brett! Its always interesting to hear what 'insiders' choose to order. Does P give you any special treatment or incentives? Congratulations.

Spectacular job on that car. Basically very close to what I would do if I were ordering. Your car does lack something that actually makes it look much better, headlight washers. How did you manage that? I didn't know they could be avoided.

I cannot stand the chrome headlight washers at the front so I made sure the car did not have them....by not ordering a package or PDLS....

Porsche finally had an employee lease deal which was too incredible to not take delivery of a car....

Is there no factory Z-option for deviated shift boot stitching?

I am now an official Porsche owner and I am thrilled about my new car. This will be my weekend fun car and is one of the reasons I ordered it with a manual. I waited 5 months for my custom build to arrive but it was worth it to me to get exactly what I wanted:



991120 911 Carrera S 98,900.00 USD
N0 Agate Grey Metallic 710.00 USD
AZ Leather Interior in Black 3,690.00 USD
24901 Dashboard Stitching in Deviating Thread Carrera Red Carrera Red 390.00 USD
24902 Upper Door Trim Stitching in Deviating Thread Carrera Red Carrera Red 390.00 USD
24905 Rear Side Panel Stitching in Deviating Thread Carrera Red Carrera Red 390.00 USD
25491 Seat Inlays in Deviating Standard Leather (Front and Rear) Carrera Red Carrera Red 630.00 USD
529 SportDesign Side Mirrors 600.00 USD
583 Smoking Package 0.00 USD
635 ParkAssist (Rear) 610.00 USD
840 SportDesign Steering Wheel 250.00 USD
911 Model Designation "911" 0.00 USD
EER Interior Package Painted i.c.w. Leather Interior 665.00 USD
P05 Sport Seats Plus (4-way) 440.00 USD
XAT SportDesign Package 4,990.00 USD
XDH Wheels Painted in Platinum Satin 950.00 USD
XYG Center Console Trim Painted 290.00 USD




















I added the 5 mm spacers and Euro LED side markers which make the car look very clean. Inside I did the custom Carrera Red inserts and stitching and have some more custom pieces including a shift boot coming as well. The Agate Grey painted interior trim looks sweet and better to my eye then the silver/chrome standard look on this Grey car. I have an exhaust on order which should arrive next week which will add some noise and power. I look forward to driving it and take it to a few track days as well this year. Let me know your thoughts guys!
SICK. Congrats!!!

" partial leather " interior ?
Or does this require ordering " seats in leather " or " leather interior " first ?
That's a good question and I'm interested in the answer as well

It cannot be done without full leather interior selected.
