Yep, started with MY2025. I like it on mine, it deletes some hard plastic.

The roof lining in Racetex was standard on my Turbo, might be an NZ thing?

It’s a bit pricey but I also optioned a wrapped center console (and seat bases). thanks for sharing real photos, it seems like a rare option.

OP--I see your driver seat has a subtle crease in the leather the same place mine does. I'm not happy about it, quite pissed actually. Look at the leather just behind your front squab to see what I'm talking about. Mine is a MY 2025 also.

Yep, I’ve seen that and other creases on a few. I consider myself pretty OCD but it’s leather, creases will appear anyway.

I consider myself SEVERELY OCD, so even the smallest things drive me NUTS. I notice that when I extend the seat squab all the way forward the crease disappears though. It seems that the 18 way seats are the most prone to having the crease in this spot, I've only seen 2 that do not have it when the squab is retracted (that is not to say that other perfect specimens exist though).

This is the sort of thing that makes me hesitant to post photos, someone will point out something that has never bothered me and then I won’t be able to unsee it!

I try not to sweat these things- if I let a light crease like that bother me, then I start sweating how guests get into the car, baby the bolsters etc, and then ultimately avoid using it. However I understand why people want these things to be perfect off the lot (though even a brand new car will have been sat in multiple times before delivery).
