Always wondered why the hard back sport seats wasn't standard on the TTS.

you are right....

this picture made it look very chrome-y.

Satin chrome finish.... Factory or not, it's a look spoiled by too many over-chromed wheels in LA. Thus the 3000GT reference.

That's a polished finish... Factory. I'd like to refinish my HS rims like that.

Factory yes but still rather ricey...in retrospect; not Porsche's fault: just too often and cheaply imitated.

I have never seen that interior combo with all black then cashmere seats and console. Looks great with the carbon fiber.

They aren't polished and are not chrome. They are painted. It is a pretty one-of-a-kind finish. I don't think that chrome or polishing is trying to be a copy of that finish.

Where are these low mileage specimens coming from? They just seem to pop up out of nowhere all the time!
