Iceland green or Crayon leather in Aventurine green car?

[Docmem]

I am getting a C2 992 in Aventurine green. Originally specced the car with Iceland Green leather with Black. Now car is pushed back till November and have a chance to alter my specs and wondering if Crayon with Grey look better. Any one had Iceland green leather and what do you think?

Crayon, Iceland sounds like a downmarket freezer goods store and looks a bit like a grubby version of Crayon in that pic. Or just the do grey with light stitching.

Crayon every time

Iceland green every time with Aventurine

Crayon/Grey will be superb. Don’t over green the thing.
Just my tuppence worth of course.

The Iceland green interior should look lovely.

I would go with the Sports Classic Heritage Interiors



in either Cognac

or Black

You'll get by default the green dials which will go nice with your chosen body colour.

Excuse my candour but the interior colours you are debating look drab and dirty.









Video of a heritage interior and the dials.



The velour version isn't one of the 2 I linked you too but it is in the other two. (of four) options. This video is of a PTS Dark Olive Metallic, not that far removed from your choice. Yours with a heritage interior is the way to go in my opinion.

I had an Island green interior on my Aventurine C2S, it was a very nice combo and really freshened the interior up.

I like both of them.. maybe the Crayon slightly more.

I have an Aventurine Carrera on order too. I'm currently torn on interior as well.

I originally fancied Truffle with Crayon stitching but it's a bit 'full-on brown'. I also like the idea of a Racetex GT wheel however which would look odd with brown seats/dash.

Mojave beige has a black dash and Racetex wheel / roof lining seems to look smart against it. Black with Crayon stitching is also tempting as a good match with Racetex bits (and is a 'free' choice).

I definitely want the chrome window surrounds as a contrast with Aventurine.

There is also still a small part of me that is tempted by GT Silver as from past experience it's the easiest colour to keep clean! I'm rubbish at washing my cars on a regular basis and our driveway is birdsh*t central!

I had a 992 Coupe in Aventurine green but I went with Mojave two tone leather interior which was an absolutely stunning combo imo.
