Default What is this interior color?

Ebay Boxster

Hi All,

If there were a color of Boxster i want the most, this is it. It is almost an exact match to my own 928's interior/exterior color combo. In fact, i'd love to have this one, but its 6 months to a year too soon for me. The ad says Savannah Beige, but all the other ads i've seen with Savannah Beige show a much lighter and yellower shade of beige. What is the real name of this interior color? Back in my 928's day, it was called Cork.

Thanks in advance,

Be careful of shades from photos. I've seen many different shades of the same color from photos. So much depends on the light which might explain the variance you've mentioned. If you look at the small thumbnail photos in the add, there are two interior shots side by side with a difference in shading.

You might want to check with a dealer. I'm with you, it doesn't look at all like Savannah Beige. It almost looks like a faded Boxster Red...

Looks like SB to me. I have Boxster red. Plus no one would order a blue car with Boxster red.

You can always ask for the interior color code and I can look it up. Jeff

The only color is Boxster red. You must get the exterior color to match.

Does anyone want to place a bet? I contacted the seller to get the interior color code off the front trunk option sticker.

Sam Flippo who is listed as the contact person sent me an email this morning so I guess it is.
