I am reporting your names to the "secret league against brown interiors" ... we are not a 5023c charity nor a religion ...

actually I quite like the 'R' (or 50th) interior - what makes me *really* nauseous is either "faux" wood panels *or* brown interiors with a really
inappropriate exterior color (red, yellow, blue...)

Totally agree on both counts

How did you get to that math? I think many 991.2 models are about 5% more expensive than their 991.1 versions (like recent GTS announcement), which would put a base price undercutting yours by around $10k...

Maybe the Carreras went up more, but haven't checked.

Natural Brown leather was last offered in a GT3 12 or 13 years ago...

My recollection of the GT3 base price was wrong. I was remembering close to $139k, which gets $145k with a 5 percent bump, which I think is low. I think the price goes up more than that with both the 4L motor and the simple fact that Porsche left money on the table with the .1 pricing. Adjusting for all that, my guess is low $140's base.

Not dark brown but just to show something other than all black interior is possible.

Damn, I think it's beautiful. Even if I didn't, you could give me an RS in any color combo and I'd learn to love it. Only thing that would be odd for me is that the British style racing green doesn't seem very Porsche like.

Love that color combo. Reminds me of the Subaru Outback LL Bean edition.

Very nice, except for the dash. He'll be blind after a few drives.

Black dash is a must.
