Hard to be sure through a picture, but since it's an '88, my guess is Mahogany over Linen.
At least the armrests are Mahogany.

Did you confirm the original exterior color?

That looks odd - looks like 3 diffrent brown colors betwen the dash, armrest and door shell...

Camera artifact or a mix & match ?

Looks like mahogany that was exposed to the sun, and the three different materials (Dash, arm rest, leather) faded differently.

The light color is most likely linen.

There was a prestine 87 S4 with mohogony interior at the Houston GTG last week that looked identical to yours. Sorry I did not take a pic of the interior. I think the owners name was Mark, and maybe he will chime in. 77Tony

Thanks guys. I only have one more pic but that was when I was towing it back. The interior is in good shape and I have just started cleaning it but aside from three dash cracks there is nothing to repair. The car was originally meteor but it has been repainted white. I hate repaints but it was too good of a deal and I only found out that it was repainted by pulling up the carpet.

That is strange color combination if it came from the factory. Its obviously possible but its likely special order. It would be interesting to know interior code. Also option codes might give some indication for unusual combination.

The white exterior probably goes better with the interior than the Meteor did though since it'd compliment the Linen.

The white and this interior does look good together.
