Default Any "Club leather in Truffle Brown" Picture?

The rendering image on GT silver looks nice, but not sure how it looks in real life and worth the extra $2K over black leather?

The club leather in truffle brown is really brown everywhere. IDK if there's an exclusive or PTS option to get it done in truffle brown and black, but if that were available I'd have done that. Not that I hate it, but it'd be ideal for me to not have brown everywhere. Also if you're doing it with the chalk stitching (which I think is a must), and getting the 930 option, know that those will not be stitched in chalk which is like come on!

It really is a stunning color and feels great. I get compliments on it all the time. It’s Semi-Aniline which I don’t think the non-club leathers are. 100% would choose again.

You're not just paying for a different color. It's a different material.
We have it, with Paldao wood trim and we like it a lot. We also got seat belts to match.

I can take some pics with a grey card if you're a photography nerd if you want. +1 on the Paldao as well.

Wonderful! I am into photography, as you see my other reply in the camera thread (Leica fan).

Thanks! Regarding feeling, it is on the soft side or the hard side compared to other non club leather option such as black or grey?

Correct the delta in cost is for a better leather.

Here you go, @thermallc ! These are nowhere near as nice as @Fullyield ’s shots, but here are a few with a grey card for folks looking to be absolutely sure of truffle’s color tint. Yes, I need to wash my car…




I don’t want to know what the price per gram is on this Paldao trim in the door card.

Someone really needs to clean my PCM screen.

Paldao looks great on the seat backs.

Good example on how truffle can change casts.

Also for those that care, Suncoast has these OEM Truffle Brown all weather mats I love.
