I'd not spotted this car before as it doesn't appear to be on Autotrader.

Did only 140 miles between MOTs in 2022-2023

3 owners in <10k miles!

Saying that this seems the norm with most GT cars? Is this down to flippers, those wanting to scratch an itch or finding the cars just too extreme for our lovely smooth UK roads?

I would say all 3, I would like a GT4 RS at some point but only for 12 months.

With regards to the Carbon interior trim on the GT4, what other options were available?

I know you could have:

- Aluminium trim

- Carbon Fibre

- Red

- Yellow

Are there any other options?

There's a car I've potentially struck a deal on, spec ticks every box plus more - CS, Extended leather, but it has the Aluminium trim

The red, yellow, etc is just the Interior painted to match exterior colour option. I specced this on the Arctic Grey car. It’s also a free option.

Thanks Jack

I know you can buy the Carbon trim, looks to be around £1-1.5k but was trying to understand if other colours would be available so that I could retrofit a different colour instead of the aluminium

Just go on the Configurator for the GTS, all the options are still there.

The brushed aluminium is my favourite trim! But appreciate we all like different things. The carbon trim isn't like that on the 992 (satin finish) but is gloss on the 718.

Standard: Silver
Optional FOC: Painted in exterior colour
Optional FOC: Brushed Anthracite Aluminium
Optional c400: Leather
Optional c£450: Carbon (Gloss)

All the above trim options were available with/without the extended leather/Race-tex/stitching option.

If you selected the Extended leather/Race-tex/stitching option for c£1250, you were then given the option to choose an extended stitching colour (Silver, Red, or Yellow. Red or Yellow were an additional cost of c£1000 on top the c£1250).

Custom stitching colour was also available for c£2500, and only available on top of the c£1250 Extended leather/Race-tex/stitching option.

That's great, thankyou!

I usually like Brushed Aluminium but I think it breaks up the interior a little too much having been in cars with the extended leather and carbon trim

You are not alone. I am trying to buy a GTS 4.0 and only want the extended leather and carbon option and its not an easy task.

Depending on which 718. My GT4 RS somehow surprised me with satin carbon when I collected it, given the GTS 4.0 I took delivery of a year before had the expected gloss. Can't really complain, as I just have to prefer both, becuase I've got both!

Brushed Aluminium for me, I have had a 718 s with carbon but the gloss finish looks forced. Carbon should be for weight saving only.

Same here. When speccing mine, by rights I should have gone for the carbon to match the carbon buckets, but for me personally I don't like the look of the glossy carbon. IMO, the darker brushed anthracite trim is subtle and it also works well with the silver-grey stitching...

I think this type Porsche steering wheel is one f the best, certainly from the modern variants, its clean without extra controls and round and racetec/alcantara, its sporty and simpel, love that steering wheel model.
