Granite Green and Linen seats and door inserts. Dash, pod, steering wheel and door uppers(?) are olive/army green. Carpeting is a light green.

The interior color you guys are referring to is officialy called "grey green". Awesome combination with the granite green exterior! I have not seen many cars in this color, maybe a hand full.

No I redyed the whole thing. BTW -No offense - Just not for me .Even the exterior color I wasn't to fond of. But it has grown on me over the years and when shes really polished up I love it. One thing ,it's very hard to get Granite Green Touch-up paint !#669 Mike

Default Here is a funky GTS I almost bought

The guy was asking only $38K, the car is a '93 GTS, with only 40K miles on it. I was too slow on the draw.

Matt;

You wouldn't happen to mean an Amazon green (agua) GTS w/ olive green/red piping car would you? Located in Pa?
If so, can you give me more details?

Mine is GP white with grey-green (code XJ) partial leather interior and the pinstripe cloth. mpesik I really understand you changed it; however I fancy peculiar color combos and I don't have the heart to change out this marvellous original one!

I have an original German language brochure from 1986 that shows a 928S2 in a green/gray metallic color with a similar interior. It looks fantastic!

N!

I almost get proud to have such a funky interior !
By the way has anyone ever got matching color made to touch-up parts of the leather that is worn? I would like to color the worn steering wheel leather cover, but how can I get a matching color for such (rare) grey-green without replacing it with lets say a new grayish one - then ship the original one to Colorplus so they can make a matching dye which I eventually can use to color the replacement cover.
