And here is what carbon fiber trim looks like in a 911... full length. Also around steering column etc. Goes well with grey alcantara and silver stitching .

My only question on carbon fiber for Cayenne is how easily do the door sills scratch? I mean, we use our Cayenne daily and there’s a lot of movement in various outdoor conditions in and out of the vehicle.

Looks fabulous. I mean, REALLY great. But I am guessing it costs a lot more than the $1000 we paid for CF trim on our Turbo.

It scratches easily. The sill trim is coated in what looks to be a type of acrylic. Keep your shoes off of it, the same way you would the aluminum trim. Because it's dark, it shows wear more clearly.

It’s $960 on the GT3. I like it a lot better then the aluminum look interior. Porsche never makes sense in pricing of options between models.

I stand corrected. Thanks. What I should have said is that it looks a lot more expensive than the Cayenne's CF trim I dropped $1000 on.

I will offer that I do like the silver trim surrounding the CF in the Cayenne. I think it sets it off nicely. Maybe that's where the additional $40 went.

Not to bring up an old thread, but I'm likely going with the option above priced at $157... except I just can't do the 22" wheels in the northeast with summer tires. I am going to go jet black/red interior with CF interior and black trim all around. Any suggestions on the best 21" wheels to go with the look?

Porsche Active Safe (PAS) is standard on the Cayenne and does not require the ACC option. On the Panamera, however, I had to add ACC in order to get PAS.

How about the 21" RS Spyder wheels vs the exclusive design wheels? They come with all seasons?

Interesting... If PAS standard... No point in me getting ACC or innodrive?

Just my .02 but I think 21s look just fine and are better for bad roads too. But imho, black trim and roof rails are a must. I hate chrome with a passion.

There have been a lot of road test reviews published recently of the Cayenne coupe with 22 inch wheels and almost all said those tires made the ride harsher. Many recommended the 21s instead.

Agree with all black. The 22's look great, but go with the 21's with high gloss black finishes

Any thoughts on Side trim in Aluminum Chrome finish vs High Gloss Black?

Which one's better looking and which one weathers the best.

Also, anyone have opinions or experience with the Bordeaux Red Seat Belts. Are they really a stain and dirt magnet over the standard black?

Lastly, does anyone know the exact date of MY20 Cayenne production start date/month?
