the car is diamond black now. it used to be burgundy , do you think there are better color combination than that

my main criterias are
a modern feel to the color scheme
durability colorwise
many thanks

Since you already have a black exterior I would consider a lite interior possibly Cashmere or even a medium grey, a lighter color will give the car a more open feel

I have black/black and it is a bit much black. A more modern look would be black/tan or black/cashmere like Stan pointed out. Cooler in the summer, more open feeling and a really classic combo.

I think it's hard to beat the dark exterior colors with the tan/champagne/cashmere interiors.

ok , tan /cashmere even for the dash /pod /console/roof/panels etc , do you guys have a pic please???
these colors tend to mark stains quite easy , i thought

You will regret all black, I have that now and A/C can't pull down the interior heat if parked outside for any length of time, so much glass.

I was at one time getting a Dark Tan with black french seams. I have seen tan with black piping and it looks really classy.

I have an all classic grey interior (see my signature) because I did not want the total darkness. I love dark colors on the exterior of the 928, but in the interior I like the lighter colors.

At the same time, an all black interior will not show its wear as much, and is easier to touch-up. Lighter leathers will change their tone a bit from wear, dirt, and UV light, and it's hard to match dye to that individual wear later.

Mrmerlin

make sure to get a dark colored dash black is good here and it will also go with the console and the door panels

The car being black opens up a multitude of possibilities.

Depending on how much of the existing interior needs to be restored, a two tone interior is usually an excellent alternative.
And as color schemes go, it's hard to beat black/cork, or black/cashmere.

Either can have a sporty feel or a more classic look, depending on how you go about it.

Most important thing though is how YOU see your car.

I have the same carpet color as in the above pic but black seats and it looks really nice IMO.

Mike B

Agreed!

meracus

the whole interior is being done , according to southbound uk this option is called "exclusive" , i had no choice as the previous interior was tatty and all burgundy
i have a swatch of leather in front of me , there is a color called alpaca that i like , its a light grey
i like this interior i found on a pic , any idea on the color scheme ?

Looks like Linen with charcoal piping. Classic.

Nicole

No, not linen... It's classic grey dash and piping with light grey leather. Steering wheel looks like Paul Champagne's work.

I know this car - it's owned by a local former fighter pilot. Note the shifter...

Champagne

The steering wheel is indeed one of mine and it is classic gray and black.
