    It's standard stitching. I have the cocoa interior too and basically, you get as standard a thread which is a slightly lighter brown than the leather itself.

    Cocoa is one of the best colours for the interior. But you have to see this colour in flesh, pics sometimes don't do cocoa justice.

    It's indeed a color that is very hard to photograph ... for now that's the only disadvantage it has

    Thx Al

    I haven't heard back from them so far. The upgrade won't be for the first few months so it's cool for now.
    I'd love to have the car completely ready before summer.

    Re: 997 TT Atlas Grey ... she's home :)

    First time I have seen a shot at leather sun visors and leather trim around the map lights! I'm sold as well as leather center console + insignia, leather gear trim, leather door finishers and leather hood release next to the SS lighted door "turbo" insignia. I think you also have the pilliar "A" optioned out which includes leather trim on the dash endpeice and ignition switch + mirror controls. Of course the main leather switch panel option is a must as well as the optional roof headliner! Got a lot of saving up to do but have a 997S to keep me smiling in the meantime. Thanks for the lovely photos, those options are not cheap but give your Porsche that "hand built" appearance which is very classy and unique! 2 thumbd up! I also think the int/ext colors were a brave color combination but they definitly work together very well. Cocoa brown is stunning!

    Let me guess, leather back seats, leather rear view mirror, leather PCM? Using the aluminum option on those keeps the leather from overkilling the car. Is it leather fuse trim? Just guessing.......?

    No, no, the little piece in the picture. Right in front of the shifter "boot", below the PCM stack. It's option CDZ "gear lever trim".

    Exactly! But just try switching the flash off your camera. Use the natural daylight. Photos should look more realistic then

    That's what you get for being an early adapter, jason! BTW, I was able to add the PCCB's to my order without pushing the date back.

    Your right, small detail but I think you still might be able to add it on. Atomic80 is looking into it also.
