I was in my local Porsche dealer (Cape Town) to collect my wonderful C2 991.2, which needed new rear wheel bearings. While I was waiting for it to be finished, I had a quick roll around the showroom. Some nice cars (there was a 991.2 GT3 4.0 being collected by a new owner (lucky chap - just hope he does a few more km than the first owner 1100km is a joke). But I came across what could be the worst colour combination. On a 991.2 Turbo S Cabriolet…. Yellow over Red. With “matching” yellow dials and seat belts. Not kidding! Who? Why? What a shame!!

 

Yeah, what were they thinking not doing yellow deviated stitching.

 

Yea, to each their own they say. Not my cuppa tea either.

They may have been going for this look. I agree that is doesn't work as well on a street car.

 

Belongs to a Hot Dog driver , so obviously the ketchup and mustard edition.

 

needs more bling factor.

 

And leather visors.

 

Well that’s special….of all the interior colors you could have chosen with the yellow. Even a shade of green would have been better.

To each their own though - it was that person’s money.

 

The steering wheel is even on the wrong side

 

Wow. I’m not a fan of red interiors at all but that’s truly next level bad, even worse than blue/red combos.
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen that combination …

 

Another example. Not that I would choose it but to each his own. I'm pretty tired of gray metallic cars with black interiors.

 

These guys might be interested in that car...

Red's a whole diff look lol.



I am biased though because my 911 looks like this:

 

I wonder if that was a customer spec order or factory delivery that was purchased for the showroom floor. I've always wondered who at Porsche decides the factory colors and options on a car that is a dealer factory delivery. What determines the decision?
