Fellow forum member "Coochas" has a website with PCNA ordering guides. Also available on renntech.org. There is quite a list of leather options, some useful and others not. For example, the PCM faceplate, standard in gray plastic, can be had in matching leather for $2300. This ordering guide is a must for ordering a fully optioned car. More & better info than any of us can provide, for the most part.
There are quite a number of optional steering wheels, none completely described in the ordering guide. I have the "460" thicker wheel, which has a gray plastic horn ring. Goes well with my gray leather, but I would have it covered with matching leather otherwise. Ask the dealer for more information & good luck getting it.
PCNA does not offer sat radio in US, either, but the dealer or outside shop can do this readily with all Porsche parts. The other way is an add-on unit, it can go in the cubby under the center stack. This is what I have, but would go the other way if doing over.
As far as sport chrono, in the 997 is allows some additional setting of obscure functions that have to be otherwise done by dealer with PIWIS and also offers a different throttle map. No extra power. Useless otherwise & ugly. Lots of people order it, so my opinion may be faulty.

If you are going to order your car with the Adaptive Sport Seat and your wife in consideration, I would highly recommend to add the Heat Seat option as well.
My wife, so might most women, love heated seat -- there are a few days every month that the heated seat would just make their day. It is just a $480 option, well worth the happiness of the wife.
With best regards,

Got them as well in my C2S! ANd not having memory for that side can be a PITA, but as I told my wife when she was overwhelmed with all the buttons "push one and feel what it does, do that to all of them and when you like it, stop".
Also have the heated seats as well as full leather. Only thing I wish I added was PAINTED seat backs.. I did however get the crest onthe headrest. Too bad we couldn't get it in color.

Suggest your order the center console leather with something like the Porsche logo or model logo,--that way the stitching will go all the way to the rear. Otherwise you really can't see that the center is leather.
