Default Full Bordeaux red feedback

Hi members
the Bordeaux red is one of the interiors that photos never captured its color correctly, its a dark red in real. i have seen the dual tone Black/Bordeaux but i am thinking to go full Bordeaux, for members who opt this color any regrets, any reflection from the dash in day light, is it easy to clean? My exterior is GT silver and i want to go something different than blacks/grays. Any other suggestion is welcomed

thank you.

I love the black/bordeaux interior, in fact had it on my last 911. But full red is too much for me personally. Whenever I see it, it looks like a massive murder scene occurred.

If I were speccing for red, I’d get black/Bordeaux, but would I pass on a full Bordeaux on GT Silver if I was buying pre-owned? No.

Too much red for me but it's a personal choice...of course. I do like the Black/Bordeaux interior quite a bit but I would not even remotely consider an all Bordeaux interior.

+1

Had black/bordeaux on my 2019 Cayenne and liked it but even in the 9 months I owned it, the bolster was showing wear even though I'm extremely gentle and careful. I'd consider it again but I think Black seats would age better and I've thought the same comparing 991s with some interior wear.

And I just always prefer black dashes and would therefore never consider the full red.

I just received my black/Bordeaux 992. I personally would have gotten full Bordeaux, but I let my gf persuade me otherwise as she thought it was just too much red. It would MAYBE be tougher for resale, but who cares. I say get whatever the hell you want even though I regrettably didn’t.
