Its interesting- going through the process of speccing Ferraris and Mclaren’s. With mclaren and the LT- you can do anything you want for the exterior or interior. You pay for it obviously but for like 8k you can do anything you want in the interior. Any color seats, dash etc.

I get it that it’s 5k cars a year vs many more by Porsche so it’s understandable that Porsche can’t accommodate every request but they should make the process if someone wants to spend money, let them.
The part your missing is your status as a Porsche customer. Money isnt the only requirement. You need pull.
918 VIP owners or anyone just below them (think someone who buys 700-1m worth of cars yearly). Can pretty much spec/CXX whatever they want.
The rest of us, yeah the sand thing….

The photos look like Paldao Dark Interior Package and Seat Backrest Shells in Leather with Decorative Inlay in Dark Paldao which are in the configurator as Exclusive Manufaktur options for the 911 Turbo and Turbo S models, for example, but aren't in the configurator for the GT3 or GT3 Touring. In the past, PAG has made wood trim available as CXX for the GT3 Touring (e.g. Jorge Carnicero's 991 GT3 Touring interior in Espresso with black accents and contrast stitching in Luxor Beige with satin-finish mahogany trim).

I hope this thread generates a bunch more discussion topics for my eventual in-person consultation!
If you option two tone leather (cohiba and black for instance) then all stitching throughout, both cohiba and black leather, get cohiba. SO the steering wheels upper black areas get cohiba stitching standard. At least that's what I understand from my consult

They wouldn’t give you a houndstooth (pepita) or other insert as part of the CXX seat package (was seat center, leather piping, and embroidered headrests)? They won’t unbundle for sure, but the whole enchilada should include centers.

No money is money unless you want something really exotic or something they don’t do unless you are family, like brake calipers. Who did you speak to that gave you the Nein? Exclusive has some people more expert than others. I’d persist if it’s important to you.

meh. It’s fine. I’ve committed the funds to my LT. I’m fine with how it is and don’t have the energy to jump through hoops.

I'd really like to get my black leather steering wheel selection stitched in Shark Blue.

Yes, I believe you are correct. Initially, the configurator for the Touring excluded deviated stitching on the steering wheel, but it is clearly shown as included now. Good catch. Thanks!

Just finished speccing mine with my guy.

different coloured script side stripe
custom seats with houndstooth and piping
carbon door sills with custom quote
maybe some reverse stitching if necessary with the upgraded special interior

Good to know houndstooth is doable!

Just specced it, he still has to submit it and get approval. I'm hoping it's going to be quite unique and attractive. Definitely will be a 1 of 1.
