Default How many p!gs are wearing dark green leather?

I wasnt sure when i saw pictures of my car before I had seen it in person.. but I have come to really like the dark green leather. I fetished out on cayennes for a while before I bought mine.. and hadnt found another with dark green. Is it a rare color or more common than i think? Who has dark green leather? Post your pics. Heres mine. 04 CS with a bunch of options.

Dark green or faded black? Hard to tell from the photo.. if it's dark green, cool and different interior for a P!G..

The photos look dark gray to me. I have a two-tone gray in mine (light on bottom, dark on top), and it looks like yours is all dark gray. If the photos are simply misleading and you truly have a dark green interior, that would have been a custom order and would be very rare for the Cayenne.

No trust me its a dark green. Its hard to capture though. I'm a graphic designer of 20 years... its not grey. The entire interior including carpet and headliner are all shades of green except for the wood and silver bits.

We used to have an Audi Allroad that had a similar interior color. I actually liked it.

Looks great when the exterior is Prosecco! One of the most unique combos around....You do have a unique vehicle. More pics would be appreciated.

Verrrrry unusual then. It would be interesting to see the original sticker or build sheet for this. The 1st owner must have paid something ridiculous to get a custom color like that.

I have the nav CD's and manual disk but no window sticker. How would one go about getting a build sheet this late in the game?

The new pictures above have a medium gray and charcoal tshirt for context.

If you're on friendly terms with a local dealer they may do it for you for free. Suncoast Porsche http://www.suncoastparts.com/product...newproductpage will do it for you for a $10 fee.

That sure is unique and I think it looks fantastic! That has the full leather option (dash, door panels, etc.) to boot! Very nice!

Is the leather on the lower part of the dash a lighter green - like how the do the grey interiors with dark on top and light on bottom? If I were you I'd be very curious to know how many Cayennes in total were built with that color interior, world wide. I can't imagine that number is very high!

Oh, and by the way, any chance you could post a couple of pics showing both the interior and the exterior - perhaps with the driver's door open? That's a total opposite of a more common green exterior/tan interior. I think it's very cool...

Yeah I'll try and snap a few more pics. IIRC none of the interior is grey. I think all the dark green leather is the same hue if the lower dash looks lighter its probably just lighting. Also the carpet is tinted greenish even though it's desaturated and closer to grey. I thought it might be a rarer color because I hadn't seen any others when I was shopping for mine. Kinda cool.
