Just so there's no confusion, the natural dark grey interior looks black to the eye. Porsche did not supply a "black" interior without special ordering a "blacker-than-dark-grey" interior from a supplied sample.

My CGT came with the natural dark grey interior which I selected from the standard choices. I've always considered its color as the functional equivalent of black.

To get black-on-black, look for black with natural dark grey interior.

Here's a sample photo of a natural dark grey interior that looks black to my eye:
