GT silver over Brown! For sure.

What about Aventurine green over truffle brown?? With Carbon fiber...just saying.

GT over Brown, Black interiors are terribly boring and should only be used on very bright colours like red, yellow, Miami, lizard etc... On a silver or black car you want something to contrast and that brown is really nice.

You aren't alone. That color is straight up Doo-doo Brown.

Default Gt silver over truffle is the best combination along with aventurine over truffle.

Can’t go wrong

Have you ever seen the plastic parts in truffle brown live at the showroom? That was the sticking point, why I changed my order from truffle brown to black on the Panamera last minute. The leathery parts look fantastic in truffle brown, but the plastic parts do not.

It is very disappointing that Porsche has abandoned the two most beautiful interior colors - Luxorbeige and Espresso.

I ordered GT silver with truffle. It's one of my favorite combos bar none of the colors available. Id have done espresso if it was an option, but the truffle actually comes across as richer. And good news is god forbid if I don't make it to a bathroom on time post some bad food stuck in traffic...well then given some of the comments here then I'll have nothing to worry about .

Consider GT Silver and Bordeaux / Black leather. Looks fantastic in real life!

I also ordered truffle over GT-Silver and am very much looking forward to it!
I would have opted for a more colorful colour, but wasnt available for me and i thought these two go great together.

Not clear to me this isn't Dolomite silver... Porsche customer relations told me the car used in these marketing pics is Dolomite...but the world may never know. Still think that GT Silver goes better w Truffle Brown than Dolomite.

GT Silver w/Black Leather Interior and Chalk Stitching + Seatbelts in Chalk... I think the deviated stitching adds a subtle and classic look, not too boring but just enough.

Best interior color in my perspective - In person looks more like a dark Gray / even black in some situations ...
definitely my spec
