Default Extended leather vs « simple » leather

First is Extended leather.
Look at the grain / stitching of the surfaces to distinguish leather and plastic.

Excellent comparison shots, thanks for sharing!
I agree extended leather looks nicer but don’t think it’s worth the $ for my needs.

I had this conversation with my SA. On my original order I had the $900 leather package, but when I switched to the 4S, I went for the full leather. My Taycan had the "standard" interior and it always felt cheap. The SA said the full leather is a better quality and has a better feel than the leather package so that is what I'm still planning to go with. My build locks on 9/26 so in theory perhaps I could see in person the difference. I guess my motto is that I'd rather think "I guess I didn't need to spend that money" versus "gosh, I wish I would have upgraded."

I will share picture of mine, hopefully by the end of month.
With limestone extended leather, I think it will be far easy to « understand » the finish looking at a picture, than in all black.
