Not a Cab, but Carrara White with Cocoa leather. The leather looks very rich in person. I have not seen any pics that do it justice. I'm still trying to get good Cocoa pics myself.

Joe 996 - OK, I did some searching for a pisc of a Carrara White Cab with Sea Blue interior with Metropol Blue top. Here are pics that I found.

o - The first pic is a shot that ohsixx posted on this Forum on the exterior of his car.

o - The second pic is a really good interior pic that ringmeister posted on the Forum.

Hope this helps!

You folks have been a great help. White it will be. Still debating tan or blue interior. I might let my wife pick. Does anyone know if the C4S come with 17mm spacers on the rear wheels?

Another option is to consider the bi-color combo of black/tan. That way the dash is black which will limit the reflection in the front window. I have the Black /Grey and was worried it might be too busy. Not the case, the black just blends into the back ground. White was my second choice, but the clear bras and rear film in front of the rear wheel will appear to yellow....Good Luck....GR

OK - but what about going back 50+ years to a color based on the older Porsches..
Posted before but I like bringing old and new together. 1961 & 2006. Not quite 50 years but close.









I know you were talking about white & tan (which I love) but I went white & blue to match the ole girl.

I agree with Edgy about getting something unique if your going to order it. When it comes to cab's I like the matching interior with the top best (I think some color combo's are fightiing with themselves) and some deviated stitching inside to show off when the tops down.

White vs. Blue...first thing that comes to mind is maintance, is it a daily or weekend driver?

I am not partial to white cars, but I saw a white 997S coupe with a cocoa interior at my dealer's shop. Very attractive. Tan or the natural brown should also look good, Some of the standard components, however, might clash with any of these. Sport seat backs, PCM faceplate & some steering wheel horn rings are volcano gray. Seat backs can be painted or leather covered, PCM panels can be leather covered & order the right wheel. If you get tan, by all means order full leather; the natural & cocoa are full leather only.

All kinds of interior components can be had in leather, matching paint or wood. Option lists for the car are available from forum member site: Coochas.com or renntech.org. Just be aware that a really nicely optioned interior can run $10K to $20K, not worth it unless you plan to keep the car long term.
