Looks great I have the same build submitted. That 12 o clock marker looks great but it's so expensive for what it is. I've been agonizing over it

Isn't that the beauty of it? It's like printing money for Porsche! They put the black on in there if you don't order it. It literally cost them.....nothing? ....less than a buck? ...can't be more than that!

We are such suckers. Just buy it, you know you want to! If you plan to track it, you will wish you had.

I would if the yellow stitching option wasn't mandatory. I have one in my BMW and it gets lots of questions. Mainly "what is that?" and "why do you need to know which way straight is?"

Besides the fact that there isn't a red option for my red stitched interior, I'd much rather go DIY anyway.
Save yourself a couple hundred bucks and use that for something else lol.

(whispered) "can someone tell him they put the wheel on the wrong side, or are we just gonna focus on the yellow stitching?"

Big congrats! I have a similar interior spec, 1st time I've seen the center ring in a closeup pic, I'm glad I selected it.

Those are the best pics to really show off yellow stitching I have seen. I love my red stitching and have seen plenty of pictures that make it look great. Now we have some that really showcase yellow.

Proof once again that it is hard to go wrong with color choices on this car.

thanks Guys ... Apologies for haphazard iPhone pics - was slightly shell shocked
And a bit hurried as shop was busy and couldn't drive the car yet ...
Loved the stitches, the LWB and seating pos, the cockpit feel, the alcantara.

And yes seeing 8 together today it's true what is said re colors all being great!

Love the yellow stitching( and yes, pony up and get the yellow marker). I keep on going back and forth on the alcantara steering wheel. I had the leather one on my GT4 before acquiring a CF steering wheel but loved the leather. But also drove a GT4 with the alcantara and also liked it very much - First world problems- I guess.

Question to all - I went with Carmine Red and the PCCBs. I have red stitching on my White GT3 with the stock calipers. Now - I went with yellow stitching for the CR GT4. Do you all think that will look stupid?? I just like how yellow brightens things up a little and I wanted to tie in the yellow calipers. I kept the seat belts black, though, because did not want to over do it - Thoughts/Opinions welcomed.

I think it will look good. I'm locked with Carmine and I got platinum stitch b/c I'm going with standard brakes. If I was going PCCB, I'd have gotten yellow stitch. Skip the yellow belts, IMO.

First, always buy what your heart desires, especially as to how you order your GT4. Second, I always avoid what I lovingly refer to as ketchup and mustard or mustard and ketchup. Purely a personal preference, but you are talking to the guy that ordered a JBM GT4, which is questionable.

Porsche isn't extracting enough money from our accounts, need silver/red/yellow center ring options for both leather and Alcantara wheels at an appropriately outrageous markup.

Congrats on a stunning RY GT4! Well done. Made it to CT Porsche Center but unfortunately was unable to see your car. It looked like GT4 Ville with the 5 including mine I saw. I too was shell shocked at seeing my rhodium silver with the platinum wheels. Especially after seeing my car the urge to drive off has increased 100 fold so I really feel for you. It looks like I will take delivery on Tuesday at the latest. I hope.
