Re: Carrera Red interior
I still think if there was an easy way to do it this way it would be great:
The main problem is the treatment of the rear side panels. You're pretty much stuck with either all red or all black depending on where you start from with the interior color. I really wanted to try to get it done, but have since moved on - still trying to figure out exactly the color combo I'm going to order.

Re: Carrera Red interior
@Conny997 @ Eric (I think you were the first to post a pic of that car two weeks ago):
Are you sure it's Carrera Red? It looks a lot like Terracotta to me (might be the lighting, though).
AFAIK adaptative sport seats + natural leather = no interior colored seat sidebag covers. This one has them, so it's probably terracotta (unless they fixed that).
EDIT: oops, they did fix that.
@MMD:
It's definitely Lipstick red. I remember the thread those pictures came up in for the first time.
That car shows how easy it is to ruin a car when ordering a leather-to-sample interior from an unexperienced dealer.
@saxguy:
Porsche does have to fix the glaring omission of bicolor rear side panels, and the door woofer color issue (if ordering deviated carpets)!

Re: Carrera Red interior
Black interior
+ 25282 deviated door center panel
+ 25981 lower dashboard/glove compartment
+ 25982 deviated seats
Or go leather to sample, which is probably cheaper (those individual deviated color options do add up quickly)
Problem: You're still stuck with single color rear side panels (I'd pick black in that case). So this setup only looks good in a Boxster or Cayman.
My spec:
