What color interior is this?

I've got the black part figured out ha. But anyone know what this color is? It's a 1982 SC with schwarz metallic exterior. Looking to redo the seats but I'm not sure which color I need to buy to match. Call me crazy but it almost looks like there is a hint of a pink pigment mixed in with a brownish tannish color.

That year, the closest color is either beige or brown. The door panels definitely look beige, but the seats are much darker. That could be from wear/tear and the oils from your skin. What do the rear seats look like? Perhaps contact GAHH and get samples of 924 brown and 927 grey beige.

On my Weissach, the grey beige turned a pinkish hue.

I sent you a PM. I have a excellent pair of 911 SC leather seats in this color I would be willing to sell.

If you have the original owner's manual, maint. manual and/or warranty voucher, they should/might have the colour code. Or, sometimes VIN decoding from reliable sources (could be any site or a dealer with knowledgeable staff on older models) may reveal the colour codes & options list. The following pic is from a previous Pelican thread on same topic, not mine but a good pic. of page

They look my 82sc's, if that's the case they are Champagne.
I'm basing that on the color of the door panels as the seats are pretty hard to judge from.

For the seats, they look like mine, which are grey beige. BTW their color looks different from your interior pieces.

I can't make heads or tails of the color on the rest of the interior is it perhaps non-original?

For example, The dash, kneepad, and door sill are other than black. Also the door handle and door compartment are black as opposed to the interior color.

Far as I can tell its original. The car doesn't show any signs of being molested. Definitely was seriously damaged by the sun for several years.

It's not beige, brown, chocolate or champagne. My guess is that it is Hannibal grey. Grey Biege was used in 1983. Might be a hard sample to find... if you do find one, match it to the door panels, as the seat color is nowhere near what it was new.

Color

I had the same issue with my 83, i had the same color as you. Its called Grey Beige and I was able to find a set of exact color replacement leather covers on Ebay in March made by World Upholstery for $500, which was a great deal.
