Wow, that two-tone terra is really compelling...at least in that photo. N Brown with the black carpet is nice too. In the video, terracotta - freeze it @ 2:14 - unless the lighting is way off.

The look of the terracotta leather varies a lot depending on the lighting. Under bright lighting conditions it looks more orange. I wouldn't order it until you see it in real life first, otherwise you may be disappointed.

I had to step outside and look at mine to be sure but that center picture is NOT a faithfull rendition of Natural brown leather interior.

Inside the building the interior looked too reddish to be natural brown but otherwise I would have voted natural brown.

In the end, inconclusive.

On your left---Wimbledon Green / Natural brown

You're right, I noticed that too but that was the only picture I had of my car from that angle. I think this picture more accurately renders the color of my natural brown interior.

Beautiful interior, Nathan. Looks like you only need a leather cover on the console lid to complete the look!

This issue was discussed a while back. The storage bin lid is leather. It is included with the full leather interior, but it doesn't have any stitching. If you get the optional storage bin lid with either the Porsche crest or the model logo, then you also get the stitching on the storage bin lid. The center console in leather is a separate option. At least, that's how it worked with the 997.1. I don't know if it is the same with the 997.2.

Yeah, if I could go back and do it again I would also get the storage bin lid with the Porsche crest and the stitching, which was a $295 option in 2008. Unfortunately I can't order it now because it's not a part that you can order unless it was included on your original build.

Check with Suncoast - http://www.e-partssales.com/miva/mer...ode=997Leather

$100 penalty box, but looks like you can get it if you want it.
