Nope, but I don't know why I would want deviated stitching on that option. Only got that option because I don't like the standard black ones. Now the cover at least has the same color as the interior. If you don't take that option with agate interior, they come in black plastic and that looks cheap.

This isn't an Agate interior, but agate/pebble which makes it even more clear that you should always get that option.

I'm fully aware why would you wanted CUJ option, just wondering why not to coordinate all deviated stitching.

I have every option that is available now. Porsche doesn't do more deviated stitching than this
I have had thoughts to get the deviated stitching from Techart, at least the seats. They are beautiful. But it would al get very expensive and I had to set a limit for myself.


TechArt... Stitching looks amazing IMO

I reminded you once before regarding deviated stitching for option XNS, I'm sure you got it all covered this time

To make the waiting a little bit easier I just bought myself a second hand Boxster S. The car is 5 months old with only 2500km.

It's a black Boxster S, manual, black leather interior, Sport Chrono, PASM, PTV, PSE, PCM, Bose, Bi-Xenon and the Carrera Classic wheels. It's not my most favourite color, but they made me a nice deal that I couldn't resist.
Wednesday of thursday it will be ready and waiting for me at the dealer

Sorry for the bad quality photos (ripped from dealer website). I'll make some better ones if I have the car

eddtiff is infamous around these parts
Love your interim ride Suzy!

The new looking Boxster really is so refined and just looks fantastic at the back. If I wanted a convertible, the Boxster in looks will always trump the 991 I think!

Thanx.
I like the 911 cab too, but the boxster is a beautiful design. A true roadster and a real fun car to drive. Maybe I keep it when I get the 911... I don't know yet. Now I hope that the remaining summer over here extends a bit so I can enjoy the sun with the top down

I can trade it in when I get my car if I want. It won't cost much more compared to when I would have my 911 right now. Boxster is cheaper to drive and together with the expected depreciation in that half year, it will be almost the same monthly costs as driving a 911. But when I like the Boxster as much as I think I do, it may stay for a bit longer I think

Congrats on your interim car. Sweet! Never heard of buying a car to wait for another car, but hey, if you can - why not?! The Boxster looks like a lot of fun. Let us know how you like it . . .

Thank you! I didn't have a private car anymore. Sold my S5 before I moved to switzerland and since that time I'm driving my company car (Q5), so this one is instead of the S5

I'll let you know how I like it

Didn't have the guts to get an inquiry to be honest, but what I've been told is that I had to count on around 2000 euro for each seat alone! The whole interior would easily get to around 8000-10000 Euro or more, depending on what one wants. It looks very nice though...

Thanks
It was pretty impulsive to be honest, but it was a very nice deal and couldn't resist.
