there are definitely great cleaning products to get it back to its original color. They also have ceramic coatings for interiors now which could help reduce the dye transfer from your clothes

I’m a big Gyeon fan. They make great products for just about any car cleaning or protection.

Awesome build! My 2022 Turbo S is Night Blue Metallic with the Mojave Beige/Black interior. I left the brake calipers yellow, but if I had it to do over again I'd opt for the black calipers. I would add the Sport Steering Wheel-heated if you want, the Storage Package, and Retractable Luggage Compartment Cover (I travel). I do have a couple questions: If you plan to have rear seat occupants and got them the upgraded seats and rear window sun blind, should you also get the side window sun blinds? And, do you need any Tequipment Accessories like a luggage compartment liner or floor mats? The luggage compartment liner saved me from a dish-washing soap spill, and I get a lot of rain where I live and prefer the all-weather floor mats. Just what's worked well for me.
On a side note, I had my car entirely PPF'd and ceramic coated inside and out-including the rims. Money well spent. Don't know if you clean your own cars, but it sure makes things easy and it looks amazing. Hope you get many years of enjoyment out of the car...it's a riot to drive. It's wicked fast, handles like I can't believe, and every time I drive it, I fall a little more in love with the car.

Thanks Smirnoff67 for your thoughts.
I did struggle with the decision of caliper color, decided some contrast would be preferable. Selected carbon steering wheel is heated.
Planning on full PPF plus heat reflecting tint, so no sense in upgrading side window shades.

I’m glad you are enjoying your car so much. Assuming Europe doesn’t have a melt down, hope to join the club this winter.

I once saw a 10K mile Macan Turbo with white interior. It was filthy. I couldn't imagine living with that unless you left your shoes outside the car and wore a painter's suit and gloves everytime you drove it LOL.
Interior is Black with white stitching. Would consider colored seat centers with matching stitching but configurator doesn’t update to show selections, so guess I will stick to conventional choices.

If I paid all that money for PTS and deviated stitching, and had an incredible color like that sapphire blue, I would do the blue stitching. Not only would it offer a pop of color in the interior, but I would be concerned that the white stitching eventually would get dirty, and that would bother me a lot.
Also, as @Nickshu pointed out, your steering column casing, instrument cluster surround and extended dashboard trim have been selected to be white leather. If that’s not what you want, that will need to be changed.

2GSDs, in regards the leather wrap on steering wheel: the description of option indicate “Steering column casing, instrument cluster surround (upper and lower section) including steering column transition in smooth-finish leather in interior color with deviated stitching.”.

Leather in interior color (black in this case), the selection is to choose color of the stitching.

for the extended leather on dash, “Note: Leather in interior color unless otherwise specified. Deviated leather and stitching colors are offered upon request.”

The option allows me to choose color of stitching, in this case white.

thanks for your concern, will double check with SA.

Yup.
I stand corrected.
