I love the chrome trim as well. Swap for black tips?

Thanks all. How about interior leather -- do I have that right (too much, not enough, or Goldilocks zone)?

Something seems off to me....the front end is completely painted...yet the rear has an abundance of black plastic...like an "add-on" diffuser.

For this reason the Touring is strange to me but to each their own.

The front is not completely painted, the front lip, the hood vents and running light surrounds are in the same black plastic as the rear diffuser and balances the car well. Without the big rear wing, a massive plastic black front end would look weird to me. I think the Touring is well balanced and the winged car is well balanced.

Add the personalized floor mats. Even though you don't have any deviated stitching, I think the thicker leather seams and double stitching on the mats will tie everything together in the interior, now that you have so many additional leather pieces (which I like a lot btw.). You could also consider the GT Silver stitching for the whole of the interior, as it would reflect the silver trim and rims of the exterior... Just my 2 cents...

I'm thinking of a similar spec when my allocation comes up. If I go with Shark Blue I'm going to do the exclusive interior in Black/Chalk (with 18 ways).

Interestingly enough, it looks like when you choose the leather seat backs with that combination (for 18 ways) the outer portion of the back is chalk leather and the inner portion looks black.

That is probably a mistake in the configurator, unless you have chosen the carbon trim everywhere and then you have the center inserts of the seat backs also in carbon fibre...

I wanted to go for crayon exclusive interior. Is it possible to have black stitching on the crayon parts and crayon stitching on the black parts? On the configuration it seems you only get 1 stitching throughout.

Thanks

Only through CXX special order. And the added cost is not going to be small.

It's called reverse stitching. Ferrari charges less than a grand, Porsche wants thousands as each piece needs to be specially specced in leather with that stitch.

it would look amazing and is well worth 1k. More than that is silly.
