Truffle Brown owners - any regrets?

I am not so convinced that truffle would tie in as well with gentian blue though. Someone that understands the colour wheel will know ‘if’ and ‘why’.
What does let the truffle club interior down though is the plastic dashtop vent and the plastic passenger cup holder. The additional dash leather trim was not available when I bought. I do not think the black interiors suffer from this ‘obviously plastic’ issue as much.

I contemplated orange or red deviated stitching with truffle and GB. But decided the classic look of chalk is great, and spend the money on other options. There are some examples from other models online.

How does the GB/truffle combination look? Seems to me that truffle is enough of a neutral that the combo should be fine.

I have seen Truffle Brown (with chalk stitching) with Dolomite, Aventurine Green, Chalk, and Night Blue in person and it looks amazing. It shows much darker on the configurator than in person. TB is really rich and elegant.
There is no substitute for seeing it in person (recognizing that is very difficult these days). The configurator can be misleading e.g., the burgundy in the black/burgundy interior shows very red on the configurator but in person is subtle and looks very nice.

it is an old thread, but that’s the only picture I found with “alcantara” wheel and truffle interior. Is black steering wheel clashing with all-brown interior? Is it possible to get more pictures of that combo? I would like to have alcantara steering wheel but I’m not sure how it would end with that brown…

^Agreed.
The shifter is close enough to match the steering wheel, but it looks off, IMHO.

I have truffle brown without contrast stitching. Personally I prefer it without the contrast stitching because the contrast stitching reminds me to home theater seats.
Like you i was on the fence about the truffle brown and really would have preferred espresso brown. Now, I really like the truffle brown and do not want espresso brown. I really like it and would consider it again if I were to change my 992.
2nd: The leather smell from the club leather is amazing. My brother has a 992 with chalk and its not the same.
3rd: I do not have racetex roof. I do wish I did get it. I have it in my Panamera and it adds to the luxury look and helps reduce cabin noise.
I do not know if I would to a racetex steering wheel. not my thing.
In the end, its all good. you will not regret whichever way you go.
Hope this helps.

Tnx. I had 992C2S with black interior (sport tex) and now I want more emotions inside, alcantara wheel is nice addition and so are the colors. Red is to red, the rest don’t go well with GT silver. So only truffle remains, but black wheel with all-brown dash might stand out too much. I’ll take racetex roof thou, but it is brown again…
