997usa: Thanks for posting the photo of the extended door leather! To offer my opinion/answer to the OPs question: I'd pick extended door leather over extended dashboard leather if I were forced to choose. It does look nice, and in certain sunlight/glare conditions I did not like the windshield reflection of the stitching on one of my previous 911s that had the extended dash leather.

I would say that the door sills, and the steering column are the most notable upgrade. The extended door one replaces the plastic toward the bottom of the door with leather. I do not like hard plastic in a $250k car, so I opted for the extra $ to have it all leather, incl. the seat backs. Glad I did.
I was considering this option, but I was always concerned that every time I got in/out, I'd drag my shoe across it and scuff it.

You would really need to go out of your way to scuff the leather sills so badly they couldn't simply be rubbed out with some leather cleaner.

I would agree that the door sill leather look spectacular when it's brand new... but can anyone comment on whether or not it gets scuffed and marked-up over time?
