I bought the 992 used and truffle brown would not have been at the top of my list for an ordered car but I like it also (obviously or I wouldn't have bought the car). And I have had good luck with not-my-top-choice interiors. My 993 has a blue interior which sounds super strange but actually kind of works. I guess I'm not very adventurous with paint colors (4 silver/gray cars, one white and one red) but have a lot of variety in interior color (blue, red, brown, tan, black and gray).

Anway, I have grown to really like the brown interior with chalk stitching. Looks very classy IMO.

I just got mine. Night blue / truffle Targa 4s with contrast stitching in clack and chalk seatbelts.
surprised how dark the truffle brown is. I have cohiba club leather in my Panamera and I think I like it better.
truffle comes out lighter in pics than it is in reality. Jury is out for me. Only had the car for two days. Will see.

Agree that truffle photographs lighter, but it's a classy brown

I think Truffle looks a lot better in real life than it photographs. I hated it until I saw it in person.

Looks like you splurged for the extra chalk stitching package. Nice.

With everything being leather, why not order a black leather steering wheel? I think it would blend in better and not look as out of place as an Alcantara wheel.
YMMV

Great photos and build. I’m speccing an AvG C2S with Truffle Brown/Chalk and saw you got the chalk belts. They look great in the pics. Any issues with discoloration or stains? I’m debating that or the truffle belts, but prefer the contrast of the chalk.

Also it seems you got all the extras - extended dash, sills, etc. Any perspective on those add ones? Happy with them? Would you have done anything different?

Thanks for the input!

Love the racing green but definitely not a fan of truffle unless it's on my plate .... But as long as you like it, that's the main item!

I have a truffle brown paired with Gentian Blue. Absolutely love it. Always get compliments and oftentimes get comments at the dealership how the interior is their favorite.

Just get it. It looks timeless and classy.
I only regret not getting the 930 leather package.

black or speed blue would be better than chalk.

I am a photographer and study color. I never understood brown tones with a chalk tone..

Creme color would go better than chalk..

But...it all comes down to the owner!!!

depends on exterior of course.

Black, creme, possibly blue.

No gray tones with brown, except black.
