I was in the same matching to Ice Grey situation and went for the following after looking at several combos in person and then pictures of interiors from the forum:

- Chalk/Black interior was a given since prefer light color interior having no issues with jeans in full Luxor Beige Macan or Chalk Graphite Blue Cayenne but do agree that jeans can transfer the color to it, but easily wiped, or get different jeans.

- Dark Siliver Interior trim was a given but decided to bring Ice Grey to the interior for door accents and think it goes well together, but others think it clashes.

- 14-Way Seats of Choice due to slimmer profile for better look vs. function of 18-ways. Prefer 18-ways in the SUVs. The Massage function is a bonus on the 14-way and works surprisingly well. Also, did not option a middle seat, but instead did the middle tray in Leather with Chalk stitching, and it came out just stunning.

- Seat Belts in Chalk has always been a preference on the SUVs (to match the lighter seats) so that was a given here (matches seats and door accents), but I do agree on a GTS Red Belts would be my choice.

- Aluminum Rhombus is a big _NO_ after seeing it in person and on pictures as it looks too bright and there is a lot of it and definitely clashes with the rest of the above for me, so went without it.

- Door Sills in Leather with Chalk Stitching was impossible to see pictures of or in person but it came out stunning to match the rest, but for the GTS B-pillar in Race-Tex would be my choice. Also, went with

Went with the black leather-free which includes some Race-tex in our GTS. Added Bordeaux belts. Very happy with it , cool and comfortable.

I have an IG Turbo, all black interior with Bordeaux belts and Bordeaux face on sport chrono. I personally think it’s a classy and sporty look. Not a fan of light interiors due to wear and possible staining

Both my Cayman and Taycan have Chalk interiors (seats) and all I ever wear is jeans and I've never had on issue with dye transfer. My issue was my wife falling asleep with a pen in hand and accidently writing on the seat. She has been banned from having a writing implement in my car ;<)

White is unique and nice.
Black is easier to maintain and resell value will be higher.

Thank you for your opinion.
I know it it’s not selected as an option, but I went for the GTS Race-tex interior in crayon on my ice grey ST and I love it, especially the contrast stitching.

I suggest you consider Slate Grey leather or if you want to dress it up, you could add light stitching . I like the Slate Grey instead of Black having seen it in person. It looked stunning.

I was in exactly the same position as you and finalised my spec last weekend. Have a 4S Ice Grey on order and couldn't decide on interior as I hadn't seen one in person either. Was lucky to see a Turbo S being delivered on the day in Ice Grey and the chalk interior. All I can say is wow. Once seeing in person it wasn't even a choice for me. It looks amazing....

nice to have contrast. light exterior, dark interior, and vice versa.

We have the volcanic grey exterior with the light chalk interior.

I would go with the black interior in this case.

Maybe consider Black/Atacama Beige for the inside: higher quality leather, no transfer of jeans dye, and the same dark/light contrast inside….

I can confirm that the beige Olea leather isn't hard to keep clean, even after 39,000 miles with many, many people in blue jeans in the car. I do have Gyeon leather protection and don't know how stain resistant the leather would be without it. BTW, that's exactly my interior, including the wood and neodyme trim.

Thank you for all advices. So I stay with black leather to have contrast with interior and exterior.

Just one last question? Do you think Aluminium rhombus will go together with Black GTS theme exterior? or should I change it to carbon
