Looks like you can now spec a wide array of interesting stitching color options including lizard green.

Sadly same paint options.

Thanks for the update. I previously saw the stitching options too over the weekend. I think these paint colors won't change :-/

Never understood why only the Spyder had that option since debut where the GT4 did not.

Does anyone know if they are going to update it so it shows in the renderings when a specific color is chosen? It would be nice to see how the lizard green stitching would look along with the seatbelts before I make the choice.

I doubt they will... Same goes for deviated leather for other models.

This is good news! The first sign that a new exterior color would be added was the seatbelts in Lizard Green and now stitching to go along with it!!!
Come on PAG just add the new exterior colors and the PDK option so I can finally spec and order my 718 GT4!!!!

Wondering if anyone will option the deviated stitching on a 718 GT4, and then select black as the "deviated" thread color. Just to have that Porsche CXX box ticked. lol

If you are talking about Lizard Green as Exterior paint, you are out of luck. Lizard green is being dropped.

I suppose it's one way for Porsche to liquidate all of that leftover expensive Lizard Green materiel and thread on hand.

Just came back from the dealer and had a good chat about PDK, PTS and Lizard Green with the GM.
As we know PTS is almost sure is not going to happen in 2020 but was giving a bit of hope on Lizard Green as a special color.
Apparently the problem is the paint supplier and they are trying to fix it...the GM told me he had to change several customers cars in Lizard Green to an alternative color and was told by PAG that if they can sort things out it will be added.
Let's keep our fingers crossed...the good thing in my case is that since I have to wait for PDK I have time to see if any other color is added...they do need to do something about the color choices on the GT4.
