Sweet, more leather. While looking at buying an S2000, I love seeing all of these products being developed.

Some things that would be awesome in leather:
Dash
Instrument/gauge surround
All leather wheel/horn pad (so you can get all blue or red)
Door panels.

Are any of those future possibilities? Porsche is the only company that offers that kind of leather upgrades... being able to do it on an S2000 (regardless of price) would be awesome.

I just need to get myself the car first!

oh yeah, the Porsche factory leather sunvisor option costs $650! refreshing to see a realistic price

You have go to be kidding me! That's at least a $500 profit -- I wonder if they make those kinds of margins on the car itself?

We have no other leather accessories planned at the moment. I received the first producton version of the visors yesterday, which I will photograph this weekend. We'll start taking orders next week.

Every leather option for the 911 (dash, doors, consoles, headliners, all vents, switches, etc) totals over $8,000. Excessive, no?

I'm looking forward to any future leather products for the car Hopefully by the time I get the car you'll have even more.

James Mullins has the first set to mount on his car (I no longer have visors in my car). So hopefully he'll post some photos soon.

Rick,
Any word as to when these leather visors will go on sale. I do not need to see pictures, because I saw the prototype at Fall Colors. I am looking for a set without pockets. I was hoping Santa would bring me a set!

Thanks,
Mike

Rick, I'd like to take my visors out. What did you do to cover up the holes? Being 6'3" makes the visors useless.
