Default Red Leather
I purchased this trim used. Can someone confirm whether this is Carrera Red or Bordeoux Red?

Looks like guards or garnet red. I have a car with Bordeaux and that's not it.

I believe that Carrera Red and Garnet are the same. But if it's definitely not the Bordeaux, that's what I needed to know. Thank you!

Red is an impossible color to photograph. Depending on the light it could look like any one of the red shades you suggest. Try getting to a Porsche dealer. They usually have swatches that can help you figure out which red you have.

Would it be easier to type the Vin number into the Vin analytics website and look at the build sheet. It should list the color of the leather .
