    Deviating carpet questions- need quick assistance

    Woo-hoo! My dealer called me today and advised that if I can commit and spec the car this week, a November build is mine! It will be a 6-speed manual Carrara white coupe with special order two-tone black and natural brown leather interior. I want black carpets and mats, but am not sure if I simply order deviating carpet that all the carpeting will be black, or if I need to spec every piece of carpeting. Also, what color alcantara headliner would come standard? Lastly, can anyone tell me if they have been successful in ordering the all red taillights in the US, and if so, what the option code is?

    Thanks

    Dick

    Re: Deviating carpet questions- need quick assistance

    I ordered a Turbo in Slate Grey/natural brown with natural grey deviating carpet for November delivery. I had the same questions when I ordered my car. My dealer told me and information provided on this board indicated that deviating carpet (option 24951) means that all carpet in the car is the deviating color. Before I ordered, I saw a Carrara White 997TT with natural brown interior (no deviating carpet). The headliner was black (actually looked dark grey) Alacantara. That is the color of the headliner when you order natural brown interior (apparently there is no natural brown Alacantara). I preferred the headliner to be natural brown too because I ordered dome lamp cover leather (XZD) and leather sun visors lighted mirror (XMP) which come in the interior color only, natural brown in my case. Again, my dealer told me and information on this board indicated that I had to order A/B pillar/roof liner leather (option XMA) to get a natural brown headliner. That is what I did. The headliner will be natural brown leather. I also tried to order black floor mats with the car. However, my dealer told me that the only color floor mats that could be ordered with the car was natural brown. I will order the black floor mats separately. It's all rather complicated. I feel like I went to Porsche options school. Hope this helps with your decision.

    Thank you so much!!! I just knew someone had been through this before me. I need to turn in the order tomorrow, so your timing is perfect. I too want leather sun visors, as I did not do so on my C2S and was very disappointed in the cheap plastic. I did not think through the headliner/sunvisor color issue as well as you have; you saved me a lot of grief there too! :>))

    I think people have bought these separately from places like Suncoast or Sunset Porsche after they got their car. They can be had for a price, and are relatively simple to install yourself.

    Take a look at the thread "Options Code and What They Mean". It shows the order code for the lights and pictures.
