You know you are spending too much time in the configurator when you are one of the first to spot an update.

I like what you have created. TU. Our latest configuration has some similarities:

Nice. It’s so much nicer IMHO with the chalk stitching on black than the red/black combo.

I saw a turbo build last week deviated chalk stitching and was very impressed. Really lifted the premium feel of the interior.

Did you also opt for the rear parcel shelf in leather? I figured it was quite a large surface area for the price even if I won’t see it while driving :)

No parcel shelf for us though it would be attractive, I would be taking it out periodically and concerned I might ding it up when I do.

Since ours will not be ordered for a long time (MY 26), we keep experimenting. Other options we are considering are these two:

And who knows if the next model year might have some different options???

We're just getting boring but comfy club leather truffle brown all over. Great to see these tasty interiors in your rides. Can't wait till folks are showing off the real thing.

Nice find!

Honestly like Duckman, I also went for the truffle brown for ‘safety’ but have been also playing with the configurator for kicks (as I’m sure others have too) and found the contrasting leather option quite fascinating to configure - but without seeing it in the ‘flesh’, was paranoid should it turn out horribly.

Maybe for the next build. :)

We looked at truffle but my wife doesn’t like brown, black was too dark and hot in California climate and we already have black and chalk in our Taycan so we were left with red and black.

After seeing cars at the dealership e realized that the red is much darker in real life (in a good way) but my wife wasn’t convinced by red stitching on black so here we are with vintage red and white.

It’s a risk for sure but the red is darker in real life and ultimately this is my wife’s car, she didn’t like the brown in real life and she is a stylist so I’m trusting her.

What I like about the brown is that you lose all the black plastic parts but it’s not my car.

We already have black / chalk in the Taycan and she wanted something different so here we are :)

Jan 24th delivery to customer so we’ll found out soon.

I'm a vintagey kinda guy and as we are doing Aventurine green and offroad wheels the brown continued that forest look. We live in a rural woodsy place so blending in is nice.
