    Whoah! What a very unique looking interior you've got there! Is that Sea Blue? What color are your stitchings too? Looks like light blue but then that could be from the flash.

    Re: OK, Its Finally Here

    I would love to see more pics with all the carbon fiber and that blue interior. I have the same combo on my 997scab and that would have been the exact combo for my Turbo.
    Congrats and enjoy!!

    Great! At last!

    Now you be careful for a while. The first week or so, coming from my 997S I spun my new turbo out, messing around on familiar roads, because of the major HP increase.



    BTW, keep the showercap for the steering wheel, especially since it's got pink deviated stitching. When you trade or sell, having that original equipment in place will increase it's value.

    Nice sea blue interior, I had that with Lapis Blue on my 996 C4S. Loved all the carbon pieces too, too bad Porsche decides to stick a piece of blue plastic underneath the handbrake

    Damn it, makes me want to replace my door finishing and air vents with cf pieces now.

    WOW! Awesome looking car!

    The CF makes the interior IMO!

    When you have a chance could you take some pics of the leather inner & CF outer sills? Also the storage compt lid w/ the CF rear center console!

    Probably THE NICEST turbo interior I've seen yet. Great job!

    Absolutely GORGEOUS. I would love to see pictures of console area also. I am ordering carbon and deviating stitching also (different colors) and can't decide on a leather console w/deviating stitching or carbon.
    Thanks

    The absolute best part about the interior is when the turbo logo storage compt lid with stitching is on the CF rear center console. The leather lid on leather console is nice too, looks much better than stock but IMHO the contrast of the lid w/ stitching & logo on the CF is the cats meow. I know it's all just personal preferance but it's my favorite area on the interior when done like that. Get the CF.

    Thanks! Was hoping to get a pic of leather inner sills together with the CF outer sills but it's easy to see how it's going to look w/ these pictures.

    I heard something about the Illuminated sills not fitting as well as the ones without the light, have you heard anything like this? Have a few options that I'm adding to my order today & will probably switch from CF sills to the Illuminated CF sills.

    Sorry I don't have a picture of CF door sills with leather door sills. But I can definitely tell you that it's worthwhile to get the lighted door sills because it really does look stunning!

    You are helping me with two impotant decisions, deviated stitching and CF Switch Panel vs. Alu. Look. The naysayers of stitching should take an objective look at your interior. Stunning!
