That's an absolutely gorgeous looking build. I'll be looking for on NE roads next Spring!

The ambient lighting in the photos affects the hue of the red.
In some cases it looks lipstick red but in others it's almost burgundy. I was afraid of the lipstick look but I was stunned by beauty when I picked the car up.

The Black/Garnett combo really tones down the "too red" concerns that I would have with the all-Garnett interior. Black/Garnett is by far the most beautiful interior currently offered by Porsche imo.

I have that exact combo, and I think it looks awesome. The red is definitely not too bright. It's a much more elegant color than the "fox red" interior I had in my E93 M3.

The black/red is the best combo! My only regret on my order was that it wasn't available. I think the all red is too red and may give a windshield reflection.

I love the red/black combo and I think it works great on some of the more common/popular 991 colors. You see a lot of black, white and gray in So Cal so the red leather cars really pop.

YES!

I wouldn't have figured that anyone would have pics of the exact 991 I'm considering: eg991 FTW!

100% certain now of what I'm getting.

Happy to help, and can't wait to see pics of yours! When I went to the dealer to pic up my car, the sales manager mentioned that he had never seen an Agate over red/black combo, but that he really loved it too. I think we may be on to something . . .
