Just noticed this today on the passenger seat outer bolster. The leather appears to wearing out or maybe it came like that. What do you all think? No one really sits in the passenger seat. I only have 500 miles on mine and picked up June 30th.

Thanks to all the forum guys for your helpful opinions much appreciated,
I an going to do a full Platinum Ceramic GTechniq. and maybe PPF the front only.
By the way the OPC emailed me today to say the car has arrived - earlier than expected in fact one day less on a month from entering production.
Apologies for the slow response being on my monthly 10 mile hike over Dartmoor today, it is so remote and stunning for I recommend it for those fit enough the going can be hard.
Will hopefully post pictures shortly IGM.

Looks like they used a not-so-great piece of leather there. It definitely has the look of having been squished by (for instance) someone sitting on it to put on their shoes outside the car, which could be enough to crease up piece of leather that is naturally prone to it based on its location on the animal.

It has natural wrinkles and less robustness than I would like for them to have selected for that spot. That spot probably takes the most stress of any.

The leather cutter/selector could have done better. But I don’t think its out of spec. I’d be a little annoyed.

Did rain get on/stay on it there?

Agreed. I was on there earlier today messing around and saw this.

Got the dash 911 emblem in agate gray in the mail today. Picture below, it’s not supper big and adhesive in the back feels pretty weak, so I don’t see any issues removing if if I don’t like it.

Car is not here yet so I can’t share any photos of how it would look. Spoke with my SA today though, he said car can be in and ready as soon as this Saturday!!! I’m not holding my breath, but it would be nice.

haha no, just good old fashioned weight training. I don’t mess with CrossFit, got way to many aches and pains that I accumulated over the years lifting weights. I don’t want to throw my back out.

Looks like Oak Green - I spent two years planning to get Oak Green only to find out Porsche lied about PTS being available on the Carrera T (at least for the entire MY23 & initial MY24 allocations). Still a li'l bitter. Jet Green & Fjord Green are also in my top five favorites, along with Porsche Racing Green & Forest Green. Pieced this image together several months ago so I could see them all side by side.
