Thirty Hours of Clay Bar-ing, Wet Sanding Polishing and Waxing!
After all the above detailing work and replacing every rubber seal, I got a decent day to shoot some pictures:

No, the P.O. did (he lives 2 miles from me; great guy) and that's a little bit of a story.
He bought the car and plowed a lot of money into it. He has the interior re-upholstered with in a combination of medium gray and perforated black/silver Ancantara suede everywhere. The headliner, upper and lower dashes, package shelf, door panels front and rear, door panel tops and all seats. Even the shop that did the work thought that all that suede was a little overpowering
I kind of prefer somewhat stock interiors in older 911's so I decided to go back to a stock headliner and remove the Alcantara from the dashes, door panel tops and package shelf and see how it turned out. It's now tolerable, IMO, but I plan to do more in the future.
Sorry for the long-winded explanation.

If you look at my avatar picture, that was taken in late November last year. There's a blue hue being given off by the overcast that makes my car look like it's almost black.
All the metallic paints Porsche used in the 90's had a lot of glass in them. Many turn a completely different shade in the sun. For example, rubystone red turns hot pink in the sun, maritime blue and slate gray metallic look pale and dull in the sun.
I need a professional photographer to get the color correct.
