Not a fan personally of the Bordeaux with Shade Green but since it’s not my car, if you ike it, I’m 100% behind your choice. Brown, Black, or Gray/Chalk would mesh better in my opinion since you asked our thoughts.

Half bordeaux with the dash and top parts in Black would look better than this. I've never been a fan of the red interior so, take it with a grain of salt!

Initially I think its not for me, but it could be one of those combinations that somehow makes sense in person. If it were me specifying it, I would probably go for black inside (despite usually liking brown leather better).

I would love to go with Club leather (two-tone), Black and Classic Cognac (semi anilin) but my concern is that the car exterior looks very sporty which i feel require flashy interior color
Thanks for your feedback

Was at dealership this afternoon getting my cracked gear shifter replaced under warranty and they have a downstairs with an amazing selection for sale. These included:
991.1 S in Mahogany metallic with cohiba/black interior
992.1 Targa 4S in red with black
991 Off white (obviously not sure color name) 50th Ann
Texted some pics to wife and she replies back "which one would you sell yours (992 GB with truffle interior and paldao trim) for. Think you should get it." I had a 911 hall pass. I passed.
1. Amazing wife.
2. If you look at that color combo and think it's the only one I'll ever want and think "I'll go down every night just to look at it" you should get it. If you think this will be a great car for a few years and then I'm getting something different I wouldn't. I look at mine every night (wife and car) and think I'll keep forever.

2. Color is so subjective. I feel I can give advice on options like FAL or RAS easier than I can on colors since preferences are so subjective. Me, I toyed with SGM for awhile on the configurator with the cognac interior. I finally decided I was trying to substitute it for the green I REALLY wanted (Fjord!), so instead of compromising I went in a whole different direction. My advice is to see SGM in person before you make up your mind. Your SA will have color samples you can compare.

IMO, this combo is gorgeous and don't really agree it needs a flashy interior. I'm also in the camp that red interiors aren't my cup of tea and resale will be tougher.

the Club leather 2 tone, Black and Classic Cognac looks great. I'm not a fan of the red and I also don't think it goes with well with the Shade Green. Red would look better on a grey or black car. Black would also look better than the red.

Color is so subjective. If you like it and resale is of no concern, go for it. I think the car looks interesting and unique but not sexy, compelling, or classy. The brown leather looks much better than the red and seems to flow with the SGM compared to the red which clashes and does not seem to mesh. Whenever I see the red interior I always think, “cool….that’s a lot of red, I would get tired of it in a day….good for that guy.”
