I was hoping to order a Racetex steering wheel for my Touring but it isn't on the configurator.

Has anyone ordered it or known it to be available to order?

I wanted the same and I was told it wasn’t possible from the factory. I’m hoping once I get the car (later this month) it is possible to retrofit via Tequipment/OEM parts. Suncoast Auto in the US (so LHD) offers to sell one for the 992 GT3 series, so presumably they do exist and can be retrofitted to RHD cars too.

Didn't even inquire with the 992. I wanted Alcantara (instead of leather cabin) already in my 1.2 Touring. I got a "quote" from Porsche that was close to double the cost of PCCBs. Clearly they were taking the p*ss and wanted to deter me from even thinking about it - which they successfully did

There are some very good specialist who re-cover wheels so that might be an option, although I appreciate that logistics could be a PITA.

I have this wheel on my new 992 GTS, and I got to say it's probably the best feeling steering wheel I've experienced to date.

Here you go, I went for the heated version with the Carbon Trim, not that you need heating with Race-Tex, but it came with the Carbon Trim option:

I'm now on my second RaceTex 992 steering wheel, first with over 8k miles on it and now on my GTS. the first one still looked new when I switched last month.

Thanks. Looks great and really adds a nice touch to the interior….
