I thought of that but it seems too light for espresso. Also doesn't espresso have a purplish tint to it?

I'd have to guess Luxor, as it seems too light for espresso. Seems similar to the cognac, but I wasn't aware the whole interior could be done that color.

My vote is Luxor with crappy lighting/camera. No way it's espresso. I have not noticed dark purple in espresso btw, most people think it's dark brown but not purple.

A shot during the middle of the video (when the camera was moved left) revealed the vinyl texture where the trim insert goes on the door, so it has to be some partial leather color. Then the closest color is Luxor Beige, since it doesn't look blue, grey, or black.

Also, hello everyone!

It's Umber - it got introduced for a little bit in 2013. Luxor Beige is too light - definitely Umber. Still being offered on Cayenne..

I had luxor beige in my cayman. And it's the same color. No doubt about it.

After looking at another monitor it definitely is not espresso. I would guess the Luxor also but the light is so bad I wouldn't really know.

It's Umber. If you see Luxor, it's time for your annual eye exam

It is agate grey.. which interior wise is sort of a tan color... (I suppose in lower light it might appear to have similar tones to luxor, but it clearly isn't).

Strangely enough it is relatively rare as I couldn't find one in a 991 before ordering mine. It's actually a really nice color and I'm quite pleased with it.. if the OP is interested I'd be happy to take pics to generate more clarity on the color with better light..

Definitely not expresso which is very dark.. or umber.. As umber that was my first choice, which I tried to special order (even though it was available I believe in 2012, but it ended up being a major hassle and they quoted me an extra 3 months (on top of 3/4 month for build).

I believe umber was available for a short time (I saw one at a dealer in a cab) but dropped off by the time I ordered my '13.

Nope it's agate grey. Shade wise it is similar.. umber (which is beautiful) has a bit of olive color in it. In lower light though I think it looks comparable.
