For those of you who have an Agate on Agate car, would you mind posting some pictures? I'm usually a black leather guy, but want to go lighter this time, but I'm afraid Agate leather might be too light.

TIA!

I had the same concerns. https://rennlist.com/forums/991/9449...-interior.html

Agate is among the best interior greys they've ever done. For about two decades I was completely unable to buy a grey interior Porsche because that damn Graphite was so plastic looking. Passed on a 993 in Blue Aqua that I had searched for for 6 months -- everything was perfect except the Graphite Grey interior. And the execution in 996/986 was even worse; just a bland medium grey sprayed over every surface:



Agate is a very nice grey, especially so if set off with the dark dash, wheel and door tops.

Thank you! perfect.

so did you end up buying a car with Agate Grey interior? and what are your thoughts now?

No, I didn't end up buying it, the car that had it sold before I had a chance to see the color in person. I ended up buying a car with black interior, as was my first choice. But, I've since been to the dealer and have seen the Agate interior in person. I would have been happy with it, it was darker in person that in appeared in some of the pictures where it seems light.

Agate interior is not such a common option in the UK, though there are some cars with the pebble/agate combination. Here's a few pics from a Boxster (718 I think), I'll be the first to admit it's difficult to judge in the sunlight. The last is agate/pebble from a 981.
