2017 Turbo S . . . . Now What?

Great looking car. Aside from driving it I would be add an exhaust (I have a Fabspeed Supersport X-pipe on my car- totally happy with it). You into carbon fiber? I love carbon fiber accents and they go great with a white exterior.

Mine has black seatbelts. Someone else spec'd the car and got transferred out of the country and I was able to pick it up new.
If I'd had my choice I would have done the seatbelts in red, stitching on the steering wheel, and probably the red edging on the floor mats to make them pop a bit more.
I don't mind the black seatbelts though. It's like they aren't even there so if you like letting the seats be the focus then go with black. I'd say that's especially true if you're going to f to put the crest on the headrests.
The interior is hands down the best interior I've ever had. I've been through two lamborghinis and a BMW i8 and the turbo s just blows them all away.
I do wish the sport gear selector dial on the steering wheelfelt more substantive. Like the way a heavy watch feels when you manipulate the crown or bezel. The plastic feels kind of light and insubstantial.
And I wish I could display my Waze app through Apple CarPlay but that's an Apple thing not a Porsche thing.
Definitely get smokers package of you havent already. The little bin the put in place of it is too shallow to hold anything if you're driving the car with even a modicum of selfrespect.

Thank you very much for your post, it was helpful. I guess I will stay with the black belts since the car is in build mode and they won't change it. I can change them at the dealer for about $600 plus labor.

I would personally say drive it for a while, it is a very capable car out of the box that can take a lot more than you personally can throw at it, no disrespect to you.
As you get used to it and more familiar with it, you will get a great feel of what YOU want on it VS what WE think you should have.
Full XPEL and tint is all mine got... Might do an exhaust as long as I don't have to do a tune.
