I’m not sure I see an argument for spending £2k on seats that are identical to actually sit in but adjust electrically the few times you do so (and add weight in the process) vs an excellent lighting system that will make the car safer and more enjoyable to use at night.
That said, I’d scrap both and add the GTS interior package in Crayon instead… it really lifts the interior.
I'm in a similar position re seats. Can I just check that the seats are the same apart from electrical adjustment? Even lumbar support?That said, I’d scrap both and add the GTS interior package in Crayon instead… it really lifts the interior.

At their lowest position, my hamstrings hit the seat base, before my left foot has fully pressed the clutch pedal!

and is Porsche still honouring the old price like the said they would?
Ordered a GT4 in August (signed order form with car details on it), got my build allocation week before Xmas, spec locked end of January (new order form issued with the final spec choices (which was wildly different to my provisional spec). Porsche have honoured the price from when I first ordered, saving me the £2250 price increase. My understanding is as long as it's within the model year, you will be fine. It's only if it moves into new MY the honouring of prices becomes flakey.I ordered a Boxster GTS at the beginning of July 21 and was told an allocation was likely in Jan 22. I have just obtained an update, with a possible allocation at the end of 22, nearly a year later than was originally suggested.
If I was to do this again, I would ask my waiting list position at the point of ordering. Are build slots allocated in true sequence of ordering?

Boxster GTS currently have one of the longest lead times.If I was to do this again, I would ask my waiting list position at the point of ordering. Are build slots allocated in true sequence of ordering?
OPC wouldn't have known about this when you ordered yours.

Either something has changed at some point since OO02ERO ordered in July, over 7 months ago, or he was given a bum steer at the time by the OPC. If there has been a change of circumstances what, and why is it only now being communicated to customers? The best part of a year delay for a model in production suggests someone is being less than forthcoming. One thing is for certain, there would have been fewer orders taken in mid 2021 if the lead time was known to be 18 months...

Ordered mine in June, had a call before Christmas to say it’ll be built on Feb 4th, and I therefore had to lock in my spec yesterday. Car should be delivered end of first week in March. Pretty Excited.

Couldn't agree more. I went two tone leather with some other leather bits, door trim and brushed aluminium Interior package in black.
I'm sure it will be divisive! but with an Agate Grey car I think it will look quite smart.
That does look good - what colour is the brown / tan leather?I'm sure it will be divisive! but with an Agate Grey car I think it will look quite smart.

Each to their own I guess. I have bought a carbon back bucket for the driver's seat and chose the sports seats (with isofix) as I take my daughter to school every day in the car. It'll look weird to some with one of each, but I couldn't care less. The lights definitely help when pressing on over the roads where I live. If you live in a city they make less sense.
I need to see this
