In my opinion if you want to keep a consistent color scheme and are are bored with the standard trim go with light silver, the other options don’t match as well.
Congrats on your car , you are right the standard trim will match the interior more than the others plus the stitching, it’s seems that I will go with the standard trim it’s a safer choice.. Did you got the door sills in leather too? Am thinking of adding them

Congrats on your new car as well!
I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't know door sills in leather was an option - looks like mine will be coming with the standard sills.
Since it includes the deviated stitching I agree I think it'll look great on your car!
And I believe malibu515 above did the regular trim and added light silver accents, looks sharp.

To me, the brown leather seats look great with the aventurine green but I can't go for a brown dash and steering wheel.

Door sills in leather will look great. I skipped it along with the lower door portions because they are high wear areas and I’ll cringe every time me or a passenger steps on or kicks them.

I went with truffle brown, chalk stitching, wood trim. First, the olea leather is clearly a notch up from the standard leather. The brown is rich and classic - it will wear in, not wear out. The paldao is very nice - almost like a matte walnut. I had mahogany trim on a prior Porsche and olive trim on a prior BMW, so the paldao is a nice progression. The chalk stitching definitely helps to break up the brown. Personally, I don't get the fascination with carbon fiber although there are some other color combinations where this will be the best option of those provided. Just not with truffle brown.

There’s Turbo with the green/brown/wood at Porsche Santa Clarita right now. Pics on their website. Saw it in person. Gorgeous. Classy.
