I went with the standard interor Race-Tex/ Race Tex Seats. And they are fantastic. Something to keep in mind - I like the race tex material, always have and had it on my last Porsche. It's a race car that is driven on the street. Leather is so commuter like. Porsche kills it profit-wise on the options. The Interior GTS package does not come close to a $8,500 value, even for a wealthy person. If you have to have leather, for air venting in the seats, well then OK. The key is to spend your money on options that you will truly value. The leather, stitching and the rest - it is best to see it in person before spending the $ on it. It is worth the effort for the many thousands you could potentially spend a million other ways.

Well said....I agree with your take on leather seats and the ridiculous cost for the interior package, when the standard race tex looks and feels better (IMO) on a supercar built for the track
Well, Rennlisters, as my PTS build has been rejected by Porsche (like so many others), I've had to go back to the drawing board and spend still more time configuring. The link to my most recent build is given below; as always, all comments/critiques are welcome! Many thanks in advance for your time and for your thoughts, which always prove helpful!!
Hell yes it is! Wish that was a special colour and not PTS, would have 100% went with it.
Also... check out this GLITCH in the Configurator... Puts the gold wheels on the GTS.. Doesn't drop off unless I remove the fire extinguisher.. lol
I did submit for a build allocation, maybe I'll get lucky and end up with the gold wheels!
That you both for the kind words, I've been waiting a while now!
And yes I noted that glitch on the configurator - maybe it's a new option? (I mean Ruby Star Neo was dropped in recently)

Maybe others with Targa GTS can say if FAL needed. Unless you have steep driveway entry or something. I did FAL on my GTS coupe. But sits little lower then Targa I believe.

Thank you, JLU2020, for your thoughts. We do have a fairly steep apron to our driveway, and I anticipate using the FAL there as well as navigating the various speed bumps around our small town.
Placed reservation last week! Now the waiting game begins! LINK TO BUILD
Let me know if I'm missing something or overboard, . I'm sure it'll change a bunch of times begore I actually get an allocation
Not a fan of the interior trim painted to match the exterior color. I love the Shark Blue (I seriously considered it before going Chalk) but not on the inside. But to each his own.
If you really want to bring in more blue to the interior, maybe deviated blue stitching. I know it is pricey, but much more subtle.

Yah I was initially concerned about that but saw a GT3 in the showroom with the same blue on blue and I thought the interior looked awesome. That one did have the blue stitching too.
