I believe it will. I personally think that it will work better with GT Silver, not Platinum. But it also depends on rims, interior trim and what you actually like. I have seen leather sample and exterior colour sample. How it looks on a car, I will find out in about 3 months.

I had a look at umber leather sample in my local dealership and was quite surprised how much it is different from what you've posted here and what is in configurator. It looks more like grey brown. Still nice colour though.

I know photos can distort color and when I originally took those I tried to do it in light that properly reflected Umber in my car. I honestly think it's a close representation of what my Cayenne interior looks like. I don't see grey in it in real life and can't speak to the dealer's sample. I hope it turns out to be what you want when you see it in your car.

Cocoa is no longer available; it would have to be Espresso (which is a shade or two darker than Cocoa) or Umber. Of those two I think Espresso would work better with yellow. Just my opinion.....

I suppose espresso is a better choice since cocoa is not available anymore and umber is a bit too light. Espresso should work.

whats the color/leather that looks almost worn? I saw it once on a boxster. It kinda looked like a leather from an old arm chair.

Interesting, I saw an umber interior at my dealer and it was darker than the OP's pics above (quite a bit darker), I could have sworn it read Umber leather interior...but perhaps is was the cocoa interior I was seeing??

Hard to say about the sample. Just for grins, here are cocoa first and then umber; took both pics in my garage just now using flash which probably lightens the umber more than the cocoa. The photos I posted of umber earlier in the thread were in more natural light. Still, in real life, there is no mistaking them for one another....
