There are loads of two tone 981s out there, not saying it has not been retrimmed, or seats have not been fitted from another car, but doesn't stand out as being strange to see that seat.

Suggestion · Original poster

It's a bit frustrating, the car has a really good spec, but it's been rather neglected on the maintenance front for the last few years, just a couple of oil changes since 2018.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Went to view this car today. Has anyone seen this seat trim before, or has this been retrimmed at some point?

POST 3Original post

Had a Macan Turbo PP with the same interior so I’d say factory.

POST 4Original post

There are loads of two tone 981s out there, not saying it has not been retrimmed, or seats have not been fitted from another car, but doesn't stand out as being strange to see that seat. However, I thought the armrest was in the same colour as the centre inserts? Personally not a fan.

POST 5Original post

This was most certainly an option, and is available on thr wider Porsche range.

POST 6Original post

Don't believe this was an option. Only red interiors I've seen are full red seats and dash, never seat centres.

POST 7Original post

I've seen this exact same black / red combination recently on a Miami blue 718 that was for sale.

POST 8Original post

This one has a similar two-tone interior, although it has the seats with the less pronounced side bolsters. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202312124...

POST 9Original post

It's the OEM 'exclusive' package, here is another https://www.elferspot.com/en/car/porsche-boxster-2...

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

testdrive said: It's the OEM 'exclusive' package, here is another https://www.elferspot.com/en/car/porsche-boxster-2... Yup, I think that's it, good work! It's a bit frustrating, the car has a really good spec, but it's been rather neglected on the maintenance front for the last few years, just a couple of oil changes since 2018. It now needs a monster service. Plugs, drive belt, brake fluid, everything. I don't think it will be the one for me. Here it is: https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/15504922
