Interesting Interior
 
Check out the interior on this Cayman. I hated it at first but now it's growing on me, not sure if I love it or hate it.

I think it looks pretty cool

:cheers:

What is scary to me is that if you add up all those "special options" the sticker price is likely over $70K! Give me an un-optioned 997 or a used 996TT/GT3 for that kind of "d'oh!"

RandallNeighbour 09-05-2007 06:07 PM

Sheesh! Not so much for me.

That car is the sex.

rick3000 09-05-2007 06:21 PM

It is a bit overdone.

I had a similar reaction the first time I took a look at it but I think the more I see it the more I like it...certainly not boring!

I like it, but the cost must be extraordinary. One thing that is impressive is the level you are able to customize your car new from the factory. The Honda S2000 in contrast, if you want a red exterior, it only comes with a black interior, and there are no factory options. Makes the buying decision very easy, but not very unique.

I like the interior. But my 1st Boxster was a white 97 with red leather.

I like it, but I also drive a Orange Infiniti with a matching Orange interior. So, I might have skewed taste :D. As far as the 70K price, I would buy a 996 GT3!

looks like the same color as some of the cgt's interior.

Nice car, but not a convertible.

Chills 09-06-2007 09:51 AM

Call me crazy but I dig it. It sure beats my plain black interior.

Well, if that interior is really terracotta as claimed, then those photos have some extreme problems with color reproduction! The terracotta I've seen is much more like a dark clay pot, not the bizarre orange in those pictures.

aBsOlUt 09-06-2007 12:16 PM

if the seats were fully terracotta count me in.

Rest looks good.

I would say the photos are a very fair representation of the actual Terracotta leather color. I have an actual Porsche leather hide here in my office, and the color looks right.

I bought and used this leather for a Forum member's fuse box cover, that we had custom covered to match his interior.

I like it.

I have to agree with the comments regarding over priced options. Also the fact that some Porsche options should be standard for a vehicle of this type in its price category.

SC986 09-06-2007 02:11 PM

It doesn't do much for. I wouldn't want to look at it everyday. I'm boring I guess but I like more of a single color with a hint of an accent color.

Did Xzibit's guys do that interior?
