What interior colour would you choose on a white CaymanS?

Please help me decide

I'm still not persuaded whether to pick white over basalt black;

Re: What interior colour would you choose on a white CaymanS?

I am also currently choosing white. Cocoa will look great with white. But cocoa cost $5490 here, which I can't really justify. So maybe plain old black interior for me with red seat belt to spice things up a bit.

That could look really good- flashes of the red on the callipers and belts..

Saw a white Boxster with Cocoa last night - nice combo

I am choosing Carrera White too, the interior is going to be Black. I plan to paint the side mirror and wheels in black, may be something like the Rinspeed INDY.

Re: What interior colour would you choose on a white CaymanS?

I would choose black or possibly dark grey. Now the interesting question is whether to take the wheels painted in white or not. I don't think I've ever seen a picture of white rims... for a reason??

Don't bother painting the mirror black, just get a carbon fibre version of it.

But your car is going to look cool dude!

I love white rims, but not on a white car. I had white rims on a Cooper S and they looked great.

You could get red rims and go the rs route, although might look a bit cheeky

Red seatbelts would indeed be a nice addition to the red callipers.

Re: What interior colour would you choose on a white CaymanS

Perhaps not to everyone's taste, but I went with black full leather/sport seats with some interior in exterior color (805). Also chose the CaymanS 18" wheels in exterior color (XD9), white with silver spokes.

Free option? Is there such a thing with Porsche?

It's a great option to get. I would definitely get it if it is free.

Re: What interior colour would you choose on a white CaymanS

Sea Blue is really hard to capture in a photo.....looks very different from picture to picture. Highly recommend you try and see it in person if possible.....I have, and this photo represents it fairly well. It tends to look more blue in photos.....but more greyish blue in person.

Quite a few places make them. Cargraphic I know have them, and I am sure so does many others. Here is a link to one place that sells the cargraphic one.

Re: What interior colour would you choose on a white CaymanS?

Thanks for the picture LPM. Judging form the picture alone, I find the white rims don't do the trick for me. With a white Cayman I would then probably stay alloy or go black.

I had a close up of the wheel but I can't find it. The white wheels didn't look bad but they didn't really stand out as much as some other colors do. However, I suspect that might not be as true on a wheel like the Carrera S wheel, which has larger painted areas than the wheels in my photo.
