How much is the stitching?
The whole "package" is around 1100 Euro incl. 16% VAT in Germany. I don't know the price in USD.
The red stitching for the thicker steering wheel option is free of cost, a coloured stitching for the handbrake lever is NOT available (sorry, guys...I just have been informed) but maybe I can do it myself with a special pen after delivery.
Re: I just ordered a Boxster S...specs
Honestly, I don't grasp the logic behind Porsche's deviated stitching options.
First of all they fail to offer a full package that covers everything, so that customers have to make sure that they really ticked all options. That's really dumb IMO.
So even if you have wrestled through their options catalogue to make sure you get the entire car with the desired stitching they tell you it's not available??? What's so difficult about producing a handbrake with a different stitching??? What kind of moron conceived that?
You pay like 70Ks and they give you a pen and say 'Hmm, try that!' ??
Sometimes on can only shake one's head in disbelief... .

Re: I just ordered a Boxster S...specs
Good questions, Tim. I don't know the answer.
The best example is actually the Porsche sport exhaust: they didn't "order" enough units from their supplier and a marketing research regarding the PSE unveilled two to three times the demand compared to what they've planned previously. Marketing research? I bet it costed a lot of money, they better would have asked me and/or our users here, they could have saved a lot of money and at the same time they wouldn't have had so many frustrated potential PSE customers who didn't get their PSE yet.
I really think that Porsche has grown too much...sad but true in my opinion.
