That's really nice!

I'm a sucker for anything with a tan leather interior; even talked myself into an Alfa 156 purely because of the interior! Regretted that one...
Now the family car is a Lexus LS400 with a tan leather.

My 928 has the Pasha interior, but I'd happily swap it for a tan leather like yours!

cheers

"Sterling Moss Green" Well, maybe not, I just associate his name with the British Racing Green of the old Triumph's and never understood what racing and Green had in common. I realize he is from the Emerald Isle and none of the above applies. But it looks sweet.

Those self-regenerating wish lists are pretty amazing aren't they?

Very nice!!

That green looks a lot like my '89 911, Forest Green Metallic (Tanengruen). Over cashmere (which is a little bit lighter than yours - I think the darker shade is classier), it's quite a nice combination.

Just lovely...

Mine is black.. (ok, mostly rust), but was originally silver...black interior...Since I am doing a full resto...I was thinking of going white or back to original silver....I was really thinking tan interior, but not sure how that would look with white or silver...
