Please post some pics when you get it . I'm also specing out a cabriolet. I keep going back and forth between the Heritage interior or the chalk/slate with deviated slate insert. I think like you, I'm trying to justify the $10k upcharge. What color top did you go with?

The word is CLASH! First I've seen the limited edition car in person, the interior is a crime and made me sick when I saw it. Way to go Porsche! Do a car that is hideous! I'd call the Feds and ask if I could get into the witness relocation program if I ordered the car!! Proof you can screw up a good thing!! Hey do not order this interior!! the colors do NOT work together. Everyone at the dealership agreed!. You should get a free bowl of soup if you select this option!!

Thank you for your honest opinion. Personally I like the Heritage interior, my biggest concern is how it pairs with the Gentian Blue exterior. From most of the pics I've seen the Coqnac has a Orange hue while the Gentian Blue has a purple hue. My uncertainty is that orange and purple hue together. I'm also optioning the black top with grey stripe to add to the confusion. My safe zone would be the chalk/slate combo with slate seat inserts, as it matches the stripe on the top. But would hate to see the Conqac Heritage in person after I didn't order it and regret not going with it.

I’m with @EZ E on this. The GB is a difficult colour to match with and you really need to see it in person. I’ve seen a few examples and it seems to me to work best with a plain interior so that the deep blue on the exterior really “pops”.

Black or the slate/grey example seem good options. Big concern that you go with heritage and hate it…

I love the heritage cognac interior. I think it best pairs with black exterior. I saw it on Gentian Blue and it looked great (to me).

I am going to take a contrarian view point and say to me the heritage interior cheapens the look of the car-almost like a cloth vs. leather comparson.

I’ve had the heritage/GB combo now for 2 months and have 2100 miles on the car. I love the combo. so happy I got it. it’s so unique and classy. the heritage tach and green dials are super cool as well. I was also worried about whether it would look orange-ish based on pictures but I don’t see it in person. I think the combo works really well together. I’ve had a ton of comments/compliments on it (not that people would tell me it sucks, though &#128514. I find GB hard to photograph. it really changes color in different light. Note, my wife has a GB Macan with bordeaux red interior and that combo also looks great. If you want more pics of the interior or the car, just let me know. One other point: can you even order heritage now? I know a couple months ago they had a stop sale on it.

Love to see more pics. According to my dealer, the Heritage interior was on tempory stop sale for a few months. Should be fine when my order goes in. Thanks in advance on more pictures,it's so hard to make a decision when we can't see I interiors in person.

If anyone hasn’t seen this interior in person I’d say do so before making judgement.

OK. I made a walk around video of the car and interior in direct sunlight so you can see:

Wow that looks Gorgeous. Best representation I've seen so far. I was hoping to save the $10k upcharge, but you've made my decision extremely hard. Thank you for taking the time to do video, much appreciated.

I really like that combo and would 100% get the heritage interior if possible on the next car. I wish you could get it on a GT3T but I think I found a way to get pretty close with aftermarket pepita inserts for the seats and door cards.

If I ever get my 992 GT3T allocation…https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PRTGX5M9
