So I guess the Cocoa Leather comes from the older 80's P cars?

I think the new 997tt with cocoa is the way to go. NO carbon, no silver packages, just all cocoa, including the console. Its pure class.

brown or "cocoa" is definetly coming back into style. I went to see the new X5 at my local dealer, and their car came with a brown int, with some awsome stitchingl...very classy, as monsoonmadness said.

Yeah, the similarities are uncanny. Also the old cork interior color is very close to natural brown leather...

I also remember seeing some 911 SCs with the old-school brown interior, no?
