Cocoa vs. Espresso?

Guys - asked in a UK forum and got some but little help- has anybody seen these 2 interiors side by side?

I want to get a sports design wheel and I have found an espresso one from a panamera but I am not sure how similar the colours are?

Check out your local dealer, because people order these cars they always have swatches of the leather.

Hi all - am on an island in Thailand with no dealer - by the time I can do that the auction will be over.

Aside from the color issue, are you sure the wheel from a Panamara will work with a 911?

I have Cocoa full leather. I think leather qualities might differ as well but I am not sure. I know Cocoa is natural leather and should be one of the highest qualities.


I have seen espresso as well and to me it all comes down to the exterior color of the car. Is the combination good or not? In my personal taste a dark exterior should have a brighter interior and vice versa.

I decided not to be a cheapskate and got the local Porsche Centre to order and fit the Cocoa wheel.

Couldn't be happier.
