Looks fantastic. I hate red interiors anyway, and this with the color combinations and stuff looks fantastic

Save your money and buy a car without a red interior, because when you sell your car you will not get much of that back.

Save your money - as an aside, I think the diamond stitch will lose it's luster fairly soon and in particular on Porsches.

are you kidding me? your current interior is to die for!


the one regret I have is not going with something other than black on mine. but its hard to find cars with unique interiors.

I think if you change the carpet to black and then add some carbon to break it up i.e. the steering wheel, handbrake lever, gear lever it would look a lot better as there is too much red going on in there IMO

IMO…your car looks great as is. Spend the money on something else. I've never felt the red comes through well in pics. I believe when you see it in person it looks much more fitting to the car. Certainly not for everyone but I like it.

Man I wouldn't trade my red interior for that even if it was free! It's unique and sets off a white car period!

I agree. I always thought that Porsche red interior has too much red but new 2-tone Red/Black on 991 Turbo looks very nice. Several months ago while I was still in the market, I saw a different Red/Black combo in a 2008 Turbo with less than 5K miles. I generally do not care for 2-tone seats but this one was nice with Slate grey exterior. Good contrast with upper door panels also in black. Did not look too busy and looked much better in person than the picture, like most red interior. I would have bought it if was a coup.
