That looks really good. I had a couple of brown 911s including an SC I kept for 30 years! Always distinctive. If Porsche offered similar plaid center section seats in the 991 I would have been sorely tempted to do it again.

Anthracite is brown- I matched it with body color wheels and sometimes I feel like Doug Heffernan and that i should put on the brown shorts

Of course colour is is important but to not order a car because you don't find the right colour? That's the first for me!!

Anthracite looks brown outside in the sunlight, gray inside under the showroom lights.

Thanks Bart.

Thought it was Anthracite Brown based on the pictures of the 991 mentioned in Asphalte.ch (good if you read French). A picture from his gallery is posted here:

Sorry couldn't paste the image directly, as not tech savvy enough...

I did anthracite with body color wheels and they show NO brake dust- but the inside of the rim does- arrrrgh thats a bigger PIA to clean and really makes a difference

Thanks, Bart!

Beautiful picture of the Cabriolet! To my eyes though, that seems like Agate Grey. The picture I was referring to was of the Carrera S Coupe which can be found here:

http://www.asphalte.ch/Auto/Porsche-...91-2-fr-02.php

The car looks a deep brown in certain shades of light, similar to the boxster pics you posted which I now understand as Mahogany Metallic and not Anthracite Brown thanks to you!

Although I can still change my color, I think I'll still stick with Anthracite because it seems to look quite different in different types of light based on the countless photos I've been looking at...
