Option list for this car just has black standard leather. Oddly, it also has ventilated seats which I assume went away with the new upholstery scheme? Actually, as a 996 owner, I don't know how the vented seats work in a 997.

They work really well. Your assumption would be correct, the leather is perforated so this would negate the slipstream affect of the ventilated seats.

That looks to be a custom job, done to look like the older 911's which had that option, glad you posted it, always wondered what it would look like, very nice.

Scott,

If you buy that 997, you will also get a matching clutch purse!

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I lovingly refer to it as a "European hand bag"
