Espresso Natural Leather
I had posted in the General Discussion forum but did not receive any replies; hoping someone in the 991 forum would like to chime in
I'm working on a build for a new 911 and was interested in the Natural Leather interior in Espresso, I think this would go well with a GT Silver exterior, but was also considering an Agate Grey exterior. I wondered if anyone has seen the grey/espresso combination in person and had any impressions. thanks!

IMO the shades are too close - but that's just a meaningless opinion. With Agate, I would go black or a combo of red/black for full leather. Again, opinion. If you're ordering then get what you want and you'll enjoy it more.

I have the same exact question and dilemma as you
I have configured a car to have Chalk + Espresso/Black Natural Leather
These two options equate to $9,000 (with only a small discount off MSRP from dealer). I realized that I am basically paying $9,000 for slightly grayish paint, and leather which really wouldn't affect my enjoyability of the car which is really too much for me. Once I took off the $5,800 espresso natural leather interior and replaced it with the $0 Agate Gray leather interior, I felt much better about my configuration. This is not to mention the fact that most likely I will be a bit obsessed with taking care of the natural leather and paying attention to it a lot more so it would ultimately end up in me having to pay more time and attention and effort into it. There's my 2 cents

hi, I have a Macan in Agata Grey and Interior in Natural leather Espresso. I think they go very well together. Agata Grey has a brown undertone so it goes well with the Espresso. They are not too close.

The Club Coupe is FULL Espresso...its a great interior IMO, and was chosen by Porsche Exclusive to compliment the Brewster green...so I may have some bias, but it never gets old!
Also have an Agate car, and think that would be a unique build for sure Agate w/ Espresso...and Agate does have some brown under-tones as stated above.
Let me see if I can find pics of the interior...

claycourter01, FYI, I was going to move the thread you started in the General Porsche Discussions forum to the 991 forum, but since you did not garner any responses there and have created a new one here, I deleted it.
Glad to see this obtained more traction.

I had a 2015 Carrera white TTS with expresso natural leather. I liked it and got several complements on it. No one said anything negative. I bought this car CPO btw.
