Question Basalt Black with two-tone terracotta/black interior

Last option...

I'm thinking of this combo, but concerned that the terracotta is a bit too bright orange and it won't work well. Has anyone seen this live?

Thanks.

This is one of those interiors that might look good now but trust me, in five years people will look at it and wonder why anyone would want that color. I find myself seeing that when I look at many used 993 combinations out there.

Is Terracotta the softer leather like the natural grey/brown types?

No, it's the regular grade of leather.
