I spoke to Aaron (Suncoast) the other day and he told me that they would receive a new shipment next week, which will have 4-piece sets in other colors. Right now, the only color for 4-pc set is Stone Gray (for 997). I want one in black.

I too have found that, while thicker, nicer and custom embroidered, the Lloyds mats have useless tethers rather than easy smeasy velcro. Wierd!

I stopped by the Suncoast store last week. Ric mentioned this deal, he said they had to order a large quantity for this pricing. I believe he said 1000 of them.
I've got mine on order.
The people at Suncoast are enthusiasts, they have put together some pretty cool Porsche mods. This 997 looked interesting.

So your mats look OEM - Porsche label and part no.s, etc.

Mine have similar tags but different date of production. It surely seems like they are authentic (as advertised). I have bought a ton of things from Suncoast and have never been disappointed or received something that had been misrepresented.

I have a 2008 Carrera S with black interior that I purchased new ( only 2000 miles). The website indicated years 2005 to 2008. My original mats match the carpeting. These mats seem more plush, thicker but definitely do not match the carpeting in my car.

thats unfortunate... just odd how black wouldnt match black. i was thinking maybe you bought a used car with natural grey and thought it was black.. they are kinda close.

They do have a part number like in the photo as in a previous post but the ordered mats have a loop weave as opposed to the cut pile in my Carrera. I will call Sun Coast today to see what's up.

UPDATE
I called Suncoast today and learned that there must havd been a change in the carpet material for this run ( or for the 2009/10? MY). I thought they had shipped the wrong mats but this is what is available. So it appears that the mats are from the original equipment manufacturer but are not the original material/design for my car. The mats do not match the carpeting in my 2008S but they will fit and that is 90% of the issue. I will put away my originals and use these until they wear. So, if you are looking for an exact matching replacement, you might want to do some checking before-hand. If you do not car about an exact match but a mat that fits at a good price....this is the place.
