Default Black stitching on truffle

I’m curious about this as well. I am getting close to locking in a mamba green Panamera ST with truffle and CF trim and am considering black stitching.

If there was a truffle/black option, I would have gotten it in a heartbeat, too. Too much brown with plain truffle

Have attached some pics that provided the “depth of character” the configurator struggles to show.




I've got Paldeo wood and love it !

Sorry to pull up an old thread, but found this and was just wondering the same thing. Anyone ever see or spec a club leather truffle with deviated stitching other than Chalk? Trying to determine whether I can do something unique in a gentian blue cabriolet

Thanks

I couldnt agree with you more. I would love truffle *if* the carpets, steering wheel, and other lower components were black to contrast. ALL of any color is just too much for me.

Is it just me or should carpets ALWAYS be black no matter what color you get?

I definitely agree, Love the Brown, just not THAT much of it. That is why I went with the Bordeaux/Black Interior in my Dolomite Silver 992, I wanted the red, but not all red. With the Bordeaux/Black I get the best of both worlds. Would have done the Brown/Black if it were offered.

It looks good in person. Doesn't translate as well in pics.

I wonder if a contrast stitching other than Chalk would work in a truffle interior (gentian blue cab)... Black? Speed blue to tie in the gentian? Race yellow to tie in the calipers? Seems risky, but could be cool and unique if the colors work together.
