Very nice! I'm just happy to see that it was equipped with the proper transmission. 
Personally, I like the wood and think it goes well with the interior. The exterior color is gorgeous and unique as well!

I saw this car in person a few weeks ago, and what a car! The color combo is perfect, in my opinion. In today's world where every car is black, white, red, or silver, it's refreshing to see something so unique. This car should definitely stand out in the 991 crowd at PCA car shows.
Equally unique as the exterior is the Espresso interior. It matches the Aetna Blue perfectly, and the wood really adds to it, IMO. Honestly, I think it's the best Porsche interior I've seen yet. Of course, the best part is that it was ordered with the proper transmission.
BTW, I agree with the Mt. Etna reference to the color name. Makes sense to me.

Congrats Slantnose. This was my custom order and my wife still wants to kill me for selling it, but changing cars frequently is just what I do.
It was good to see some positive remarks on the color combination -- that vintage feel is what I was looking for, and if you go back to the early 60's, you'd even see Carrera Red -- the Espresso dials that down a bit. My dealer would never order wood in a 911 but after this car they've done it several times. With the right colors it looks good. I've done Carbon also, it all depends on what you like (as always).
I may do a Turbo Cab in this color, when PTS is available.

Thank you so much!
I really like it alot & think you did a great job designing the build.
The car arrived to me perfect...

Would like to see the next one you put together, too.

I cringe whenever i hear wood and 911. This however works, the interior color plays well with it. I also think the Blue helps, i don't find the color that sporty. It seems like a more luxurious color combo to me.
Congrats on the car, this is one of my favorite 991's I have seen.

Wow, that combination of interior/exterior colors and finishes is really something special. Very sharp.
