At the time, the cost of the T interior in grey was incredibly expensive and blah. I went for the Lizard T interior and couldn't be happier. Every single person that gets in my car says "I love this interior!" and yes, I love it too.
In the absence of online photos of slate grey, I originally spec'd my car identical to yours (GT Silver paint, Lizard Green T interior with full leather, and painted inlays). Then my conservative self took over on lock day, and I made the switch to GT Silver stitching instead. Actually, the dealership had a GT Silver GTS with GT Silver interior stitching sitting in the showroom on my lock day and I was sold.
@wilder had posted photos of his interior in the original T thread and I thought it was gorgeous!

I always wondered why the rear seats didn't come with the special Lizard T stitching in the seat cushion like the front?

I think it's great too. That was the interior I was going to get but decided to get the carbon buckets instead.
My one and only regret is not getting the T interior package in the slate grey. There weren't many good photos online that showed the contrast with the door and dashboard, and I really wanted a contrast so I opted for GT Silver stitching. It looks great, but I often wonder if I would been happy with the contrast of slate grey (which I've come to understand doesn't offer much contrast at all). The pinstriped seats look amazing!
Love the Lizard Green Interior but the T Slate Grey Package is where it is at.
I see more cars with Carbon Buckets than the Slate Grey T Package.
T Package in Leather was a must for me. I would have done Lizard on a muted exterior color, but with Guards Red I went slate gray and couldn't be happier.
My T only has six options, but I wasn't leaving the T package off a T.

Here's mine on delivery day back in April. Now have 1,500 miles and loving it. The only kind of regret is not going with the slate gray T package (went with 4 ways and full leather package). I had the T package on my Cayman T and that was unique...thought it would be gimmicky on the 911 T.....but was wrong. Anyway, I am happy I did no sunroof and no back seats. 7 speed manual is amazing. Full leather package is 100% worth it. The seats are just okay; the 718's were better. But overall the 911 T is the big daddy to the 718....in every way. Well worth the extra $.

I also opted to stick with the 4 way sport plus seats. I thought I would regret it but I'm glad I kept them on my build. They're very comfortable and I'm happy with them.
I mentioned in the prior thread that I was taking my 2023 CPO T on a 6,000+km road trip after I picked it up in mid-July with 4,100km. We just got back home on the weekend and the trip was two weeks where my wife and I drove from Calgary - Yellowstone - Ely, NV - SF - Campbell, CA - Yountville, CA - Seaside, OR - Vancouver - Home. Unfortunately, the track day at Leguna Seca didn't end up being possible with our schedule... I'll need to go back again I guess! The car has just shy of 11,000km now and and all I can say is wow, WHAT. A. CAR! I wasn't expecting the car to be such a comfortable GT, and maybe that's a negative to some, but for this trip it was greatly appreciated. Multiple 10 hour + days on the road and not once was I ever tired or sore coming out of the car. My wife even commented multiple times on how comfortable it was and how much room she had. Many reviewers have commented on the interior noise but it wasn't something that ever bothered us.
Things I came away loving:
- The steering is fantastic for an EPS.
- Doing U-turns with RAS is actually hilarious. Came in handy driving up Mt. Hamilton.
- The clutch pedal actually has feel! My other car is a 2022 Subaru BRZ which effectively has an on/off switch for a clutch.
- The suspension tuning is phenomenal. So much confidence going quickly through CA-35 (Skyline)
- The power (note my other car) is intoxicating. Although one pain point was not being able to find 93 pretty much anywhere until I got back to Canada. I do feel bad for those of you in California... that gas is utter crap.
- My car has the extended fuel tank. I had 1000km range on my dash after a fill-up which I thought was pretty funny and definitely adds to the GT-ness of the car.
- This is the first car I have driven where I actually feel low enough in the car. The driving position is perfect.
- I've never had people get out of my way so quickly as they did when I was coming up behind them.
Things that we're mildly annoying:
- There's a rattle coming from my passenger side b-pillar. This was resolved daily by my wife hitting it.
- On the first day I had a WBA sensor error come up multiple times in what I am assuming was the sun blinding it. Never came back after the first day.
- The cup holder placement is beyond stupid. I had to be very careful shifting into 6th if I had a drink there in order to not accidentally go into 4th.
- Still not used to the brake pedal being much higher than the gas pedal. Heel-toe with light brake pedal pressure is tough relative to my BRZ which can be heel-toed anywhere, anytime. I know, this is a me problem.
A couple photos from the trip. No photos from the amazing drive on Route 50 across Nevada... can't take photos when you're stretching the cars legs a bit *cough* or a lot.

Haven't seen that Holden badge in the US before! Funny enough plenty folks across the ditch put a Chevy badge on them instead, especially on the VE and VFs.
