Why the Lizard Green tach? It's not going to match the Iceland Green interior if that's what you were aiming at.

Thx Ggreg, idea is to get a lighter 2 tone interior, not sure what light interior would go well with chalk exterior - slate grey/chalk two tone or may be agave green club leather with chalk stitching

Chalk tach & SC look good on a chalk car. I'd stay away from chalk belts though, staining is an issue.

Same price (within $1k) as my C2S build, and I don't think I skimped.

I wouldn't get the Premium Package as some of the items in it are unnecessary IMHO.

Race-Tex Roof Liner w/ a Sunroof? I suppose it is not the glass roof.
Adaptive Cruise Control? Why not get a Tesla that will drive you?

That is why there are so many configs, all to each their own.

I worry about light colored leather seats and staining especially from jeans.

it doesn't always clean up completely

That's a solid build. I'd double check if the 14-way vs. 18-way seats are the best choice. I haven't tried the 992 14-ways but in the 991 they were very different from than the 18-ways. I also vote nay on the lizard green sport chrono dial.

14 ways in 992 are different than 991s where the 14 ways in 991 can pinch at the shoulders, they feel comfortable initially but on drives > 30 minutes ,the back would get mildly sore . We wish we could have seen in person club leather in agave green

I thought the same until the detailer cleaned up the light tan/near white interior of my wife's Mercedes.

I selected the same exterior/interior colors. You happy with your choices?

My last 3 cars have all had light colored leather seats. Never, ever had a problem like what’s shown in your picture? Did you just dye your pants? Unless there is something unusual about Porsche leather, I’m not expecting this to happen. That said, if I’m not in shorts, I’m either in faded blue jeans or Khaki pants.
