    Picture of beige bucket seats in Carrera?

    Hi

     

    Does anyone have a picture of a Carrera with sandbeige  bucket seats installed? I am contemplating this option in a two-tone sandbeige/black interior but I wonder how it looks. I already saw that color with bucket seats in a Ferrari 599 and it looked quite good i must say.

    I found some pics in a Cayman myself :)

    I love it !!!

     It must look amazing from the rear, with all that carbon fiber, with the contrast of the beige colour.

    any one got these?

    how usable are they in a daily driver and for long distance drives?

    I just don´t think that it fits a Porsche, looks good in a Ferrari but a Cayman´s brilliance is its precision and great handling. If I´d install buckets in such a car it would have to have a certain sporty appearance (e.g. Alcantara).

    Re: Picture of beige bucket seats in Carrera?

    Are you saying that a Porsche hasn't got a sporty appearance? :)

    Re: Picture of beige bucket seats in Carrera?

    What I was trying to say:

    Boxster, Cayman and Carrera are very versatile cars, yet rather precise, solid and rational than luxurious, plush or emotional. A Cayman with sandbeige interior looks a bit odd to me already, conbined with bucket seats even more.

    Bucket seats are combined with leather, carbon or alcantar in my eyes, not with light-coloured leather or even wood. Of course, just a personal opinon.Smiley

    Wood has no place in a sportscar imho :)

    I sat in a 1927 3.0l Bentley the other day (fitted with the 8.0l engine for a laugh!) which had a fantastic, if not perfect wooden dash.  Now many consider them to be trucks rather than sports cars but....

    That's funny! If you look at pictures of the original 911 it had both a wooden dash and a wodd-rimmed steering wheel. Jaguar XKE's had wood rimmed steering wheels as did many sports cars of that an earlier eras. Marcos and Morgan made (and still do in the case of Morgan) the car structure out of wood. The 917 had a balsa wood gear shift knob, the BMW M3CSL and Z06 have balsa wood floors in the their trunks.

     So wood in sports cars is perfectly appropriate.

    And if you go even further back people even used wooden wheels!

     

    I ll correct myself: wood has no place in a modern sportscar, in the interior :)
