Carerra Red interior

this is the color that i had my eyes set on. However, I sat in one yesterday and somehow it looked like too much red interior. I know, just putting black carpets will mix it up. But I think having the dash top in black would have been ideal.

i am still not saying that that's not the route i will go, but just a thought.
Last few Porsches have been all black and I am feeling that it might not be a wrong way to go again. I wished the espresso was a little more rich and not so chocolatey (if there is such word).

Overall the car looks amazing and love it every time i see it...

anybody have any other input who has all red interior?

I agree. I originally ordered mine with a red interior with carbon accents which tended to calm the red and match my black exterior. I was then notified by the factory that the carbon would delay my order by 2 months so I went with black/grey. Still think red with carbon looks great.

I have the red/carbon interior and absolutely love it. I have had black interiors the last few cars and this is such a nice change. I also get more positive comments from passers-by than any car I have ever driven, and that is saying a lot.

Sure! Here you go! The car was originally ordered (by the dealer) and they missed the carbon center console trim piece, so I replaced that (in later photos here)...also added door sills last week.

Check out my album. I love the red interior, but if you have the patience you should be able to order a black dash.

Black is the way to go. Why fix something when it ain't broken.

I did red with black seat inserts and door inserts and floor mats trimmed in black. It looks great. There are some pictures in another thread about platinum wheels if you want to take a look. Delayed my build be 3 day sand added $1,600. Call PCNA and ask for Melissa Witek. She designs interiors.
