The steering column really pops, especially if you have deviated stitching. I would skip the sun visors, they're disappointing for the cost. I would probably add the steering column too if I went leather, so it really is an expensive choice.

The extended door panel really looks nice, but they're a little too rich for my blood.

If you are getting a leather package with deviated stitching, the steering column is a nice addition. I’ve never considered sun visor upgrades on any of my Porsches. Must-haves for Joe may not even be afterthoughts for Jim. Just depends on personal preference.

Nope just going for the 4k full leather package. I'd love the gray stitching but not for 2k more. No other leather options.

I don’t think there is any 911 driver who looks at its leather dash and has regret for ordering it. I’m not so sure the other way around.

Steering column casing is always a must-have for me and a pretty cheap option. Especially when you have deviated stitching. Sun visors not so much. But if you have the Race-Tex roof lining you must add the Race-Tex sun visors. That plastic looks really horrible otherwise. Lower door unit to me is a must if you have deviated stitching but probably less important on a T. Without this it’s still beautiful. If you do go for it don’t forget the inner door sill guards. It’s on the extended package leather. Because only then the full up to down look on the door will be leather. And don’t forget about the backseat in leather but this is a way more costly option and for many people not so relevant. See my post above.

Must admit this thread has tied me up in knots😂😂 My spec posted earlier bears no resemblance to what I’m thinking of now.

Hi Scott, yes but it's for the 991/992. The page owner just added the 992 when available which is confusing. Most groups won't cross different platforms specific to a model, I.E. 996/997 Turbo, as there are distinct differences. I just felt that the 992 gen was different enough to warrant it's own page.

For those of you who already have a commission number, major congrats! Like many, I think this trim is phenomenal and thought there was going to be massive ADMs and waitlists. Glad this is not the case for many!
