After many, many months of waiting, searching, learning (mostly on Rennlist), more searching, waitlists, order demands that never materialized, and even more searching and waiting, I've FINALLY landed an allocation and have submitted the build order for my long-time dream 911 - a Jet Black Metallic Targa 4S!

Production is scheduled 2nd week of Nov. with arrival on west coast in early Jan. I couldn't be happier to be a new Rennlist member - what an incredibly helpful and supportive enthusiast community!

 

I think you missed one option. Not sure what it is but maybe the leather seatbelts with deviated stitching. Looks like a great build and you will be very happy with it. Looking forward to pics.

 

It will look gorgeous. Congrats!

Please post some photos here after the delivery. Especially, we'd like to see the interior with all those stitchings.

 

Sounds awesome!

What color is the deviated stitching?

 

Welcome to rennlist and congratulations on the build I can't wait to see it when it arrives.

 

Went with Pebble Grey to contrast with and lighten up the all black interior. (And, believe-it-or-not, there were even more deviated stitching options which I chose not to include!)

Will definitely post pics… can't wait!

 

Going to be beautiful. Can't wait to see pics of all the deviated stitching!

 

The steering wheel and the steering column casing seem to be left out with the deviated stitching option. Please get either one of them get deviated-stitched. (Not both of them. Deviated-stitching both will make them look too busy.) It will look much cooler, and it will go very well with other stitched parts. Just my two cents.

 

Excellent build. Cannot wait to see pics of your interior!
I am a fan of Porsche's black leather (it has almost a deep charcoal feel as opposed to pure black) and it will be SET OFF with that stitching.

 

Congrats on the order, great build. Your car will be beautiful. Can't wait to see pics, and in the meantime, good luck with the wait!

 

Thanks all. Coxswain - I debated the steering wheel stitching and decided against it because I do have it on my current Audi S5 and it seems to have the potential to get pretty dirty. Also, I thought the steering column deviated stitching was a bit of overkill considering you can't really even see it that well behind the steering wheel anyway. Thanks for your input though!

 

as a fellow leather fetishist, i would suggest dev stitch on the steering wheel, steering column and the shift boot. if you're going to go all the way....

also, there is really good product out there for getting the stitching cleaned up. don't let that hold you up! also, the fuse box panels in leather and the rear extended pack in leather is a nice touch too.

 

Nice looking build... got pretty much all the bells & whistles on that puppy!

 

I was trying to have some semblance of self-control!!! But, contrast stitching on the shift boot does sound particularly nice. I don't recall seeing that as a Z-option. How do you go about getting it done (and does anyone know how much it costs - of course, at this point it's just "rounding error"!). Thanks!

 

i sent you a PM. i'll send you some pictures that will seal the deal for you
