Opinion needed re: color choice

natural brown or natural gray

I have Cocoa in my Meteor Gray C4S. Looks good and gets compliments (but, people tend to compliment any Porsche.
I rejected black and gray interiors as too, well, cut and dried. Terracotta was too orange for my taste. I have not seen red but it might be nice. Still, given the choice again, I'd get Cocoa again. It's beautiful, practical and just unusual enough without being wierd.

This is my car's interior which is natural grey leather. Subtle difference when compared to black. Goes well w/ GT silver but can be "too bland" to some people's taste. I have some several pics of Adias's car that has natural brown which is a beautiful color but that is no longer offered as a choice for natural leather section.

Simple. Buy full leather. It smells fantastic. Natural leather is even better. It's the real ****. It costs more and it's better but now only listed in two colours - black or espresso. Although I understand that you can custom order other colours with additional other money. I have full leather and would not by a 911 without it. It enhances the experience.

I have Dark Grey Natural in my silver turbo...works well with either.
Black will work with either too.
For contrast, nat brown w/Meteor is a stunner - I've seen this in person.
But this is very personal, so take your time and do what you think best.

Yes! I stand corrected. Tx. I have Sea Blue leather and love it. It's different and a subtle change from the blacks and grays. It is not natural leather and so I do have the classic wear on the left hand side of the drivers seat where the seatbelt rubs across. My lease expires in 24 months so will be looking at my options for a 991 with natural leather. Yes - Meteor Grey with natural brown would be stunning. Anyone know the cost of a special order like that?

Having owned several Porsches over the decades I have enjoyed the ones with the full leather the most. Although Natural Brown appears to be off the short list for Porsche now, you can probably order it as a Leather To Sample. It's a great color for Meteor. The best way to describe it is creamy peanut butter!

Beautiful interior Dan. My only fear was the dash reflection as seen on your pics and I usually don't wear polarized driving glasses. But no one can argue against that color.

OK I posted earlier and I'm now late to this, and I know you were asking about interiors. But having owned many Porsches, the one thing I regret is that I haven't ordered a paint to sample in some special color. I was almost ready to order a 2010 GT3 in a 356 color (to match the color I want to paint my 356), but then got a dealer stock TT instead.
Dan's car is a true work of art. Think about a paint to sample (with whatever appropriate leather you like); nothing else makes a pcar so special and "yours".
