I kind of like the color on the dash and doors, though the painted center console trim just makes the cupholder look even more massive. At least Porsche lets you do pretty much whatever you want (and will pay for).

If you don't like the cupholder, Porsche includes a plastic storage piece that can go in its place.

Yes, Porsche will basically do what you want and they'll do nothing to prevent self harm. The biggest issue with this car are the yellow and green decisions. Blue and orange are perfectly acceptable together.

I don't often feel bad for dealers, but this is one of those times.

Couldn’t decide on a color or two so chose all of them?

Default Python green with green tach.

Do you think that a Python Green 992 with the Lizard Green tach and sport chrono clock will clash? Lizard green is the only option for a green tach and clock, and it might be good to have some.contrast in with the slate/chalk interior. Green Seat belts would be too much I think.

You could match your caliper color.

PCCBs on a green with car yellow interior accents is a strong look.

Couldn't agree more. I was walking up my street the other day and decided to count the car colors as I headed back to my house. There were 34 cars parked in the street or out in driveways. I $hit you not...EVERY SINGLE CAR was either gray (not silver), white or black. Every single one of them! Our cars are kept in the garage so it doesn't count but my wife and I apparently are the only ones on the street that don't have either gray, black or white. I think we're also the only ones that actually use our garage for our cars and not a floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall storage area. Crazy! So dull. When did our roads get so monotone? Then people ask me if I got Miami Blue because I want attention. No, I got it because I love cars and I love the color. Not my first bright color either. Cars are supposed to fun, no!?

It will sell. SoCal has tons of bright colors and someone will like the green, yellow and orange interior stuff (though maybe not me). My brother is in Dallas and when he put in an order for a 991.2 GTS Cabriolet a couple of years back they asked for a $1K refundable deposit. His car is Agate gray. They told him that if he wanted a "crazy color like Miami Blue or Lava Orange" then they would have demanded a $15K non-refundable deposit. Not even sure if that's legal in TX (no idea), but thought that was interesting. This is apparently the largest dealer in Dallas too. Out here in SoCal they don't bat an eye at bright color orders.

I had to put down 10% ($17k) on a high spec cab. First time buyer but the car will come in December so I said ok. I think certain dealers ask for higher deposits for high spec or atypical spec cars to protect themselves.

this is quite common i think:
  1. python green exterior
  2. black leather/race-tex interior with lizard green deviated stitching
if you one more you can add any one or all of they below to taste. if you order all the below, maybe skip the deviated stitching although I think it looks sharp
  1. liz green seat belts
  2. liz green tach
  3. liz green s chrono clock

Love it, and it's what I'm ordering. (My build freezes at the end of the month.)
