I had Sand Beige interior in my prior Cayman S. First thing I did was asked for black floormats instead of matching beige, that went a long way towards targeting a potential problem area. The only other issue for me was the beige steering wheel. You've got to really keep that cleaned regularly, as you'd be surprised the kinds of dirt/grease your hands transfer. If there had been a way to get a black rimmed wheel, I would have done it. I did not have any problems with staining on the seats, either from jeans or anything else.
Anyone think of replacing their beige wheel with a black wheel? Can the beige wheel rim be wrapped with black leather? That would help a lot with the dirty beige wheel issue.

I also replaced my beige floor mats with black mats. That helps a lot in keeping the car looking cleaner. The black mats also give the interior more contrast. I like my beige interior but sometimes I feel that it is just a little "too beige".

The problem I did not foresee is the new wheel does not come with the center air bag part. So I will have a black wheel with a Luxor center. So to do the whole thing in black you need to order the wheel and the air bag unit which is pricey. After I get it will figure out what I am gong to do with the center part. I might leave it or I might pull some other Luxor parts off the old wheel and make it look two tone or I might suck it up and buy the airbag unit.
