I know personal tastes are subjective, but that black stitching on magnolia is just hideous to me. It looks like a bunch of ant trails!

What color is the exterior of the car? Like other said the choice is subjective. I have deviating stitching in my car, https://rennlist.com/forums/997-foru...d-997-2-a.html and IMHO it came out pretty good for the color combination. I would suggest adding some color trim piece to match. However, I can't quite picture the combination you are after. Good luck.

Deviating stitching is very difficult to do correctly, and often times it overwhelms the interior. The dealer had a TT w/ blue leather and white stitching which seemed over the top. The red stitching w/ the black interior seems to work, although the seats seem a little busy to me. Brown leather with sand stitching was very attractive when I saw it, but really more Aston/Jag/Bentley than Porsche. FWIW I think you were correct to go w/ the standard stitching. There's no harm in imagining the various configurations possible when ordering a car as special as a Porsche, for me it's part of the enjoyment of the purchase.
