Eric,
Didi you order a special leather option on the rear center tunnel?
I have spoken with the Customer Consultation Specialist of Porsche Cars North America, Inc and it was my understanding that on a full leather car there was no stitching on the rear tunnel. The issue is that I have ordered full deviated stitching and we have been in discussion as to what is currently available as an exclusive stitching option and what is not. If in a full leather car the rear tunnel has stitching, I will cancel my deviated stitching order as dev. stitching of the rear center tunnel is not an available option currently.

It's unrelated to "Full Leather interior". A full leather car without the special CTRILWDS is just a hump with no stitching and the console lid is missing stitches too.

Yes, regarding this it's called "Center tunnel rear in leather with decorative stitching" And it also includes the armrest console lid stitched.

Absolutely beautiful car. I can't wait for more detailed pics and a review. My PS car has been delayed twice.......original completion date of 1/30 when I ordered in late November was pushed back three weeks to 2/21, and now I have been informed that all deviated stitching orders have been delayed up to 8 weeks. Now I'm told my production is scheduled for late March/early April.
The GOOD news is that I was able to add PDCC to my order, only adding one day to my build date.

Congrats! Beautiful interior!
Making me very hard to wait for C4S... I might just visit the dealership tomorrow for C2S order...I wonder if Expresso will work with Basalt Black though...

Eric (and others that have seen the full leather interior) - do you think a car WITHOUT the leather dash but optioned with the "door panel in leather" option would look ok? For some reason I keep wanting to add this option but can't pull the trigger on full leather. I know it's splitting hairs but you have to draw the line somewhere on price

You can do the dash only but have to go the full leather route with the seats. It adds up quick. The configurator will let you add the door only option without the rest though. May be a bug?

Sorry guys. Picked up the car late today and we got nailed in denver yesterday with almost a foot of snow. Before I took delivery today I had to map a dry route home. I took it once around the block and it went straight into the garage. It will be next week before this is gone and I can do a real hi-res shoot.
In the mean time here is some more eye candy from inside my 3.5 car garage (cramped with 3 cars in it so it was like taking pics in a phone booth at night.)
So the blueish shots are an accurate representation of the Light Design Package which illuminates the interior in a "xenon color" LED glow. At least I think this is what the LDP is :/. Then I took a few shots with the light off to show the true hue of espresso.
Also note the real tunnel between the back seats has the stitching as does the center console lid. The option were attached to one another unfort. But they look good.

Eric, thanks for the pic! However, I'm 99% certain that those are the leather doors. A big help though, I do think they would look just fine without the leather dash.

I will go out on a limb here, but you must have a package/selection that gives you a leather panel door. That door for sure is different than a non-leather door. It looks great, btw.
