Makes the 993 interior look pretty sophisticated, with high quality materials and fairly contemporary without sacrificing what it really is.........a 17 year old design.......NICE........a darker color would look great too...

I remember a 4S with this color interior and the dash was green.
Exterior color was Wimbledon, nicest 993 I have ever seen.

I love it. I wouldnt pick it, but it is gorgeous and perfect. I am not convinced it is aftermarket. Could be a "special wishes" car. Havent we learned over time that Porsche will pretty much do anything for money. Even fit a car with an RS shifter in suede. If it is aftermarket, that is an impeccable job.

It looks way too perfect & fresh, considering the age of our cars. The leather that surrounds the aluminum insert of the handbrake is proud of the insert. If you look at a factory aluminum/leather 993 handbrake lever, the insert is at roughly the same height as the surrounding leather (just looked at mine).

Otherwise, beautiful work.

An interior of this color in a 993 is much too feminine. I don't understand how you guys get all giggly about it.

As for the workmanship. It's just the standard that any good, experienced upholster would do.

So true..... exhibit A. Only $7K for this prime example of the upholsterers art from you-know-who. Even the stitched panels aren't equal. What a disaster. Do LAPD have no shame....
