Thoughts on a stock 09 Black c2S PDK with Sand Beige interior

I somehow do not like the black non Full leather interior and a local dealer has an 09 C2 with manual sports seats in Sand beige with a black Exterior and black mats and It looked good


Any one has this color combo? What do you guys think. ?

 

its not bad, nor is it my first choice, but i have a major issue with the car having manual seats. Its a 100k car, its like having manual windows. The only excuse for having manual seats in a Porsche is if you track it (save weight), otherwise no way.

 

Love black . Not crazy about beige . Natural brown if one must look into that tan interior color.

 

I like it, it looks kinda 80s retro. thats what i have.

 

Beige is nice, although I feel that it will get dirty very quickly especially if it's your daily driver.

I agree with Larry, the Natural Brown is stunning. Here's a White TT w/ Natural Brown Leather and a Cocoa Roof - beautiful combo.

I saw a Basalt C2S with beige interior AND deviating carpet, which was also very nice, and wasn't a "beige overload." I feel that the beige looks nicer when wrapped in Full Leather; it's not as nice as black standard leather - IMO.

At the end of the day, it's all about what YOU like and what you see yourself driving and being a part of day in and day out.

Regarding the seats - I guess this is tough for some. The "Sports Seats" are really nice, but are they nicer than electronic standard seats? I would lean towards yes. The Adaptive Sport Seats are the top dog, but that's not an option here.

Once you establish your preferred driving position - you won't really be adjusting the seat everyday - that's why electronic seats have "memory." So I don't think it's a big deal that the seats are manual for that one-time adjustment, if you feel comfortable in them - do it.

@dinorocz - I agree, $100k cars should at least come with damn floor mats! but that's Porsche, they get you with the $20k worth of options.

 

It´s my favourite color combo, I think it gives a very charming look while being sportive at same time. Get it, it looks stunning.
It´s curious to see that here in Europe is a very famous combo, people like it a lot, but in the US is not so popular, you guys prefer clear exterior colors with dark interior.

 

If you saw it, and you thought it looked good, who cares what anyone else thinks? You're buying it for you, so make sure that you're the only happy with it. If it was a case where you're trying to pick colors and created a combo that you haven't seen in person yet, that's one thing, but if you saw it and you're happy, go for it.

That said, I think the black and beige would look fine. IMO, different color combos give the car different looks. Black on black gives a very sporty look, while some of the lighter color combos give it kind of a more relaxes cruiser look. It all depends what you're trying to get at. Personally, I've looked at a bunch of cars and the natural leathers always looked terrific.

 

Not a fan of the Beige, looks like $hit after a few years. I found that it showed every dirt spot, never again.

Black, Grey, or Cocoa would be my picks.

 

Grey might be better, I have seen used cars with black interior and not sure why but they all seem to develop a shiny surface and look worn more than they should on a 2-3 year old car

 

my Cayenne turbo was that scheme - nice contrast but the sand did take work. my Levis were starting to colour things pretty quick and i put a black shifter on pretty fast because the sand was again getting coloured.

so looked really good but demanded more effort.
