well see here's the the thing with black. You already have black in the center console and all the those bits on the dash. Unless it's the nicer leather option, all black leather (vinyl?) makes the 986/996 interior look a bit monotone and a little dated. You need some color accenting either by painting the center console to match the exterior, adding a nicer looking steering wheel, or some nicer leather with maybe deviated stitching on gauges cover the and door panels. If everthing is bone stock and black it's going to look like a basic option package car and that's not really the look the designers had in mind. Porsche only downgraded it so that they could upsell all those overpriced interior options.

p.s.
does the parting out the boxster still have the roll hoop windscreens?
