Nice!!! That’s perfect. I was able to select ventilated seats as well. I wonder if that’s really possible though, or a configurator error. I’ve never seen the possibility of ventilated seats on Race-Tex. Can someone confirm?

seem like a glitch. Or you accidentally opt leather/race Tex with leather seat center.

Great spec. Love yellow accents with SB. Now swap those orange marker lights for the OEM clear ones asap. Will make a huge difference on that spec. Otherwise don't touch it its perfect.

Nice build. I have shark blue envy. The yellow stitching matches the PCCB really well.

No, I kept the Race-Tex seat centers. When you switch to Leather seat centers, the GTS logo on the headrests disappears. See below:

The configurator will not display the deviated color. But if you spec: interior in racetex and leather with race Tex seat inserts there will be ‘GtS’ on the headrests. Adding deviated stitching will change the GtS color on the headrests. The base color for that spec is black stitch and if you look it doesn’t go away, just go to black. Then add belts and dials of choice (and carbon fiber if desired) and the total package is within $1000 of the GTS packages(chalk or carmine).

I went out on a limb knowing that the calipers looked good against SB so the interior in a match color would as well. There are a few GT3s that had been delivered as well. Overall SB is a little hard to photograph accurately, it’s quite dynamic. And with most photography on the internet being auto processed phone pictures there’s quite a bit of variety.

car is getting ppf, ceramic and tint as well as clear markers as we speak!

I’m doing this with speed blue deviated stitching and hoping the “GTS” logo will also turn blue! Hoping I’ll have the same experience as you. Makes sense too since the logo is stitched into the seat.

Looks really good! I was going to go Shark Blue deviated with white dials but I got bold and matched the pccbs!

But since you hijacked my thread the only penance is for you to come shoot my car, holy crap your photos are great.

It has been a good 2000 miles so far. However, I picked up a vibration that hasnt really gone away. Car drove straight but vibrated at speeds that were legal and .... more than legal. I took it to the dealer and they road force balanced and the fronts were out but the driver rear wouldn't get in spec, so the tire was replaced free of charge.

Anyone who poopoos PDK must realize that photos like this make the purchase go over much better than *having that f** thing in the garage*
