Well, looks like I am going to have to change my interior color selection before the order locks.

Wish me luck, I am also adding the dark tailights, lets see how it all turns out.

I'd vote for the black/red combo as well.

Two tone is the best. I have it. Love it.

This is what I did.




Garnet Red full leather seats. Everything else is black leather.



Here are the rear seats. FYI, the carpet remains black. And the back of the rear seats is black carpet as well.

Your car, of course, but may I cast a vote for leaving the TLs red, plus leaving the lower reflectors red? From straight behind the car you can see the red backs of the rear (and front) seats and the red accents on the bodywork (as well as the calipers) are a great compliment. While I love "making the car my own" with subtle upgrades, in the case of your (and my) color combo, the red just happens to be the perfect compliment in back.

Not the best photo to show this because I'm under a big oak tree and the reflections on the glass don't show the seatback color. But in person, the red shows up well from behind.





Here's a better look:

I like yours the best. I would add a red door panel and stop there.

I agree with the majority. Also, the glare on the inside of the windshield would be an issue.

Check out this video of a 991.1 that's all red.

Full red not two tone. One of the few cars you can get it on and I'd go for it.

Agreed. My incoming will have black / red interior - with the standard silver trim (now I wish I made it Carbon Fiber but it's fine).

I saw in the picture above, the wood trim. Have not seen many cars with wood trim and I feel like it is not a common selection for a 911 in particular.

What do you all think?

Red and black, because you never want to go full red...

If you must, then go with partial red like PsychicDreamer.

How did you option that out? Was this through Porsche Exclusive?
