+1 for Alcantara. Great in summer and winter.

I feel the same about the Sport Tex seat centres in my Carrera T. 8-) More comfortable in both hot summers and cold winters, compared to leather seat centres. :)

Thanks all, I must butt-test the alcantara, but it sounds like a preferred option.
Also, dealer told me that we can anticipate Feb build for Apr delivery.

Moving on from seats, I'd recommend Surround View as a very useful option - helps protect the wheels!

...and don’t forget the heated steering wheel! Pure bliss, especially in the colder months! :)

Soooo with you. Sounds stupid, but I will never buy a car without it. 😅💪

Was never a fan of alcantara but decided to go for it with the GTS and am now quite the fan. Also got the heated steering wheel which was a pure whim as I don’t feel the cold but it is great. The one thing I wouldn’t be without is LED lights

Tested today, 14-way seats are a must for long-range travel.
