Not sure I would have removed alacantra for them and they are a pricey option. What made you spec those ?
So a couple of points on this one as I have been asked this alot.
Firstly my wife and I just don't really like Alcantara. I know lots do and I have had other cars that have had it but we really didn't want it in our GTS.
Additionally I feel that the base alcantara option is very dark. The dark silver stitching in my option adds a level of breakup to the sea of black.
Now considering the Alcantara/Leather upgrade is £2,400 that's again not adding anything other than alcantara which I didn't want.
Finally the "beautiful" option (full GTS Alcantara option) is £2,400 and then a forced £2,325 for the GTS Interior pack. You can't have one without the option. Considering I was working to a build price of £105k those options (that again contain alcantara) didn't work for me.
My choices then allowed me to add Guards Red instrument dials, blocked on some of the options above, add guards red seat belts, I added steering wheel case in leather with dark silver stitching as my wife always says thats a big chunk of black plastic otherwise.
I did lose GTS logo on the headrests so compensate I added Porsche emblem headrests and GTS Logo in leather on the centre console.
Make sense?
