Which would you choose w/Two-Tone Leather Interior:


Agate Grey / Pebble Grey

I'm pretty conservative, so I'd go just Black, but I do like the Black/Luxor 2-Tone.

Black and beige is a classic - and much cooler seating surface, especially if you are getting a cab. I have a red/ black interior with a PtAg car, but it would look great in a black car. How about black, with red inserts, seat belts and instrument dials. Red contrast stitching would look great as well. Mmmmmm! I may need to get one myself!

For me, black is the best. I went thru a bunch of beige,(including brown/beige two-tone) follow by cars with various shade of gray in the earlier years. Beige can get dirty(stained from jeans) fast, and show cracks easily. This aged the interior much faster than the exterior. Although gray makes the car feel more roomier, it just isn't very exciting. It reminds me that I am in a sedan and not a sport car. 991 black leather is more like dark charcoal, which is elegant. You can dress it up with either contrast stitching or decorative stitching. That is my 2 cents.

Thanks for all your opinons. I think I'll go all black leather with gauges and seat belts in red to match teh calipers. Not sure where I can find the red stitching though on the configurator.

If you search, I posted pic with red gauges and chrono dial. Just quick reminder, contrast stitching might not be available on the exclusive options like additional dash, rear tunnel, etc. That is why I dropped the red stitching. I have seen red stitching on black interior, it was stunning. If I get to do this again, I would do red stitching.

the umber looks [retty good in the cayennes where i have seen it done. also answers the issue of wear & tear as it is darker than the luxor.

personally though, if i was ordering i would go custon leather for the few grand cost.

Detroit Shooter is infamous around these parts
Here is black on black

Not full leather but you get the idea.




Tint the windows dark, Platinum wheels and off you go.

Awesome looking black Detroit shooter...I'll probably do the full black leather, with the Classic Rims, .....The multifunction steering wheel looks great also, but still trying to figure that one out vs. the Sports design one. I think I'll get the Red belts and red gauges to match the calipers.
