I was wondering - what are Your opinions on Olea Brown interior? Especially if it's hard to maintain and its' look after some time?

By the way, here's a link very well showing this interior:

The Olea leather is very nice and feels smooth and soft. If you like the colour go for it. It is such a personal preference and luckily enough we all have different tastes. If you look after it a bit I think it will be long lasting and not difficult 5o keep looking pristine.

The one thing I do not like about it is the light colour under the windscreen. I feel too much sun gets reflected up from there and prefer a dark or black colour.

I love the Olea Brown...... But none of us have had the car for long enough for the leather to start to need service..... But it does not seem to mind fairly rough treatment by my kids... :cool:

I really like it. I went for the red with my car, but am having second thoughts. I got tired of paying for every little option, and decided I didn't want to pay for another option with the leather.

I love the Olea Club Leather. Really nice and supple. I think it will hold up long term.

Here is one of my clients 4S in Dolomite Silver Metallic with Olea Club Leather in Truffle Brown.

@LukeManning - thanks, really good photos

@dave-t.901 - to be hones, I wasn't thinking about red leather at all. But I saw it today in one of Taycan demos and now I'm also considering the red+black option. I'd definitely go for the black one, but I have this issue in this particular model - that black does not impress me, nor gives me an impression of sitting in a top segment car. I like much more black leather from BMW than from Porsche...

I have the red leather with Dolomite silver. Love it.
Thery told me they put the ceramic coating on the interior.??
I had the PPF on the entire car plus ceramic.

Also,
In pictures the red looks more red or pink than it actually is.

Mentioned earlier but fair warning.. if you've never had a non-black dash before it can drive some people crazy. You get a lot more reflection and some people don't mind at all, but I personally can't stand it.

The Brown isn't as bad as some colors used to be, but it isn't great.

From a while ago but this looks awesome and I am now agonising over whether to change my all-black interior.

I don't suppose you've had a car with the Black / Meranti Brown colour come through? What's it like?

I have not had this yet as it is only for MY 21" allocations so far
