There was NY Tri-State charity run today that brought out a ton of high-end cars including this white GT3 with ROW seats!

The car looked like it had just past 2000 miles.
Whoever the lucky owner is, congrats!

that car convinced me that full leather is not needed on the 997. thats a wonderful interior and no full leather.
I have lamented on this as my 996 GT3 had full leather but the plastic interior on the 996 needed it to bring it up to a $100K car standards. The 997 doesnt need it. Its VERY nice but not needed. I relied on RL opinions of full leather in the 997 and as usual RL members were correct.

It doesn't have full leather but why does it have door handle and door harmrest in leather instead of Alcantara (or is it only the RS that comes like that)?? Love the seats and roll bar but would of skiped a few CF bits.

Does anyone know exactly what comes in leather? The Porsche configurator is tough to decipher exactly what they are talking about.

Thanks for making it clear

full leather had alcantara on door as you mentioned.
the door pull (handle) and arm rest are always in leather no matter what, except boxster non s and cayman non s.

I am assuming by arm rest you mean the hinged cover of the door storage compartment...or do you mean the top of the door? If the former, then on my full leather GT3, it is in alcantara.

Mooty, we have the same cars, no difference between Canada and US. I remember seeing pictures a while ago and almost entire door was Alcantara, so I assumed it was regular and not full leather.

Hi guys,
To clear up some of the mystery, here's the full list of options I got on that car:
- EZA Interior Carbon Package
- EZB, Carbon Package Switch Panel
- XMJ, Rear Center Console - Carbon
- X69, Carbon Door Sill Mdl Insignia
For some reason, I decided that the boy racer carbon fiber overload would work on this car. Detailing Dynamics in NY added a few additional carbon pieces like the sideview mirrors. Personally, I'm happy with how it came out.
- 450 Ceramic Composite Brakes-PCCB
- P36 PCM 2.1
- P12 Self-Dim Mirrors and Rain Sensor
- P74 Bi-Xenon Headlamp Package
- XFG Instrument Dials in Guards Red
- XSX Seat Belts in Guards Red
- XXZ Footrest Aluminum
- 509 Fire Extinguisher
- 640 Chrono Package Plus
- 666 Module for Telephone PCM
- 810 Floor Mats
After the fact, we fitted the DAS Sport Rollbar (painted white), the ROW GT3 Seats, and Schroth harnesses, front center vent in Carbon, front inlet screens and a few other minor bits and pieces. I would have liked there to be more Alcantera, but there isn't. If I order a GT2, I'll do it right. :-)
All work and motorsports parts came directly from Porshce of Huntington. Thom has been working on my p-cars since I got my first one in 1999 and he's the absolute best.
Oh! I almost forgot: this car will be the first "moderne" Porsche to run the La Carrera Panamericana in Mexico in October. For those of you that may not know, La Carrera is a national 7-day long race in Mexico. It's actually where the 911 Carrera gets it's name. The cars were dominating in the 1970s/1980s, so Porsche adopted the name.
I'm really looking forward to this event. Think of it as the Gumball or Player's Run -- where the police drive with you to keep people out of your way and close down roads so you can go fast. REALLY fast.
PS: This is my first visit to Rennlist in years. It's nice to see a real forum here. Last time I was here, there were more splash screens and non-functioning Javascript...

Welcome to the board Emil! That is one loaded GT3 you've got there.
Can't wait to hear about your experience with this race in Mexico. How did you manage to get involved with something like this? Are you selected by a group or can anyone join for a fee?

La Carrera is open to anyone. There's a VERY reasonable fee that covers hotels, race setup, Mexican racing license, etc. There are some technical requirements for the car, like any real race series, but it's all doable if you've ever been club racing. This is a real-deal race, not poser rally. I've done both -- and much prefer racing. ;-)
