Hi everyone, my lock date is next week and I'm pretty much final on my configuration (link below). Its already above my self imposed budget of $110k, but I'm wondering if anyone got the standard interior and regretted it after?

I have it and it’s fine. I think looking back there are options that total $4000 I would delete and cover the cost of full leather (innodrive, Porsche rear light in black, front lights in black)

My RWD has the standard black interior. No regrets at all. It contrasts quietly in the background allowing the displays to really shine and be the focus. Nothing about it seems inferior to me. The 14 ways seats I have are full leather anyway.

Had a budget I wanted to stay within Put the saved money into tech (ACC, RAS, Air Suspension) which has really improved the driving experience. Would do it again without question.

This is a very good question and the option I am struggling with the most as I approach my lock date. Right now, I am thinking full leather black/limestone beige with my Gentian Blue RWD. I consider full leather black as well. However, I will be able to see a standard leather in a couple weeks.

Spec the full leather and save elsewhere imho.

From your build personally I would have it before the rear axel steering and insulated glass.

I got the full leather due to wanting a color not offered in the standard interior. Otherwise I would have gone with the standard interior. One place you could save a little would be to deleat the seat heating. Car comes standard with front seat heating. Unless of course you are concerned about seat heating for rear seat passengers.

I had no idea, rear is for car seats so it’s useless. Thank you!

Was thinking of getting rid of ACC. I honestly don’t use it at all in my Audi and my wife is getting a Model X so plan to use that for road trips. What do you think of ACC?

How do you feel about ACC, Innodrive aside?

Think I need the insulated glass, it’s hot as hell in LA.

I have standard interior on a 4S. No regrets.

I'm a fan of the ACC, great in traffic. Also you'll need it if you ever want to spec innodrive through FOD later on.

I find I never use driver assists, so I’d delete that too. The reality is that the only color I would have gotten is chalk in full leather. Since I stuck with black, standard was fine and I’m happy with it.
