Two hopes...

... and I'm guessing one of them is Bob Hope, but here goes anyway.

What, if any, chance is there of Porsche accepting a request for a Pebble Grey extended leather interior, but with the seats in black rather than grey?

I know you can have the seat centre colours changed, but is there any way to have the whole seat colour different?

I'm sure Porsche would do most things .......if you are prepared to pay ££££ :D :D

If it was a GT car I'm sure they would, but on a Macan, I'm far less hopeful. Am hoping someone will pipe up and say they've made such a request before - and whether it was successful.

Only hope would be possibly a special order = Exclusive Manufaktur.

As ScotMac says = 💰💰💰💰

Back when I was speccing crayon I did ask if I could have the red leather interior but extended in black for the “extended” version instead of the all red.
I was politely told that “computer says no” 😳

Why don’t you go the whole pebble interior? I know you wanted the extra light from the pan roof but you have reservations about leaks etc so perhaps ditch the roof and lighten it all up with the pebble seats. I think it looks great especially now it’s not teamed with agate dash.

That's the conundrum, but Mrs Chimer wants black seats. If possible, this would have been an acceptable compromise.
