We make a bunch of interior parts in carbon for the Cayenne if you like the look of carbon.
.....and some nice looking stuff too. I saw the pics of TK's Cayenne TT.

great looking truck....

interior wise, it all depends on how crazy you want to get. I wouldnt do much else besides a TechArt steering wheel.



But it all depends on how crazy you want to get... haha...

We only want to get rid of the cheapo plasticy looking surfaces on the dash, pod, center stack and top of the door panels. It would be done in black to match the stock interior and nothing as wild as that second picture........

Could you make any suggestions? Do you think the stock parts would be cost prohibitive or should we look at customizing it.

Not bad at all considering that it transforms it into a true convertible

The dealer who was getting the other (in CA) wouldn't trade for it.

As for the pano roof, if you walked into a dealer right now you'd probably be told you cannot order a Cayenne with a pano roof. Evidently, their supplier is maxed out on the number they can build in any given year and cannot supply anymore for the forseeable future.
Wow I guess the pano roof option is a big hit. In Texas it seems to hot in the summer to do this but I am still considering it.

Looks amazing

Hi Alex, thanks, I got your PM but I cannot respond since I only have 12 posts (need 15 to be able to respond to a PM?). Can I get just leather pieces for the dash, pod, center stack trim and door top trim from Techart?

It's not CTT (had an 04 CTT) fast but will definitley will hold its own. Comparison between GTS and the RRSC? Both have good points and weak points. Since I am a fairly big guy (5'-17") I like the GTS as the RRSC has a fairly small drivers compartment. I hate the dash, pod, center stack and door top trim look in the GTS. It's a plasticy cheapo looking material. The RRSC is basically made of the same stuff I'm sure, it just doesn't look as bad. We're looking into doing leather on the offensive surfaces in the GTS. The GTS does feel faster and definitley sounds better. I like the styling of the GTS over the RRSC but that's personal opinion I know. The cup holders in the RRSC suck! They are probably too large for even the biggest jumbo drink from a fast food place and a bottle of water will fly out of them at the slightest turn! RRSC is a very well built vehicle has ~2200 miles and has been trouble free, we'll see on the GTS.......

BTW, the RRSC is for sale on eBay right now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/08-Supercharged-Sport-Perfect-Rear-Ent-DVD-NO-RESERVE_W0QQitemZ160236548479QQihZ006QQcategoryZ62 95QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
