Molded to fit mats.

Anyone know of a source for these?

I'd be interested in a set of quality mats too. Does anyone here know if someone makes them? Weathertech??

I checked with weathertech to see but they do not have a mat for the older cars.

can't say enough good about my cocomats -- they do a great job of capturing the detritus that comes with bad (snowy/slushy/etc.) weather while looking (imo) great year round -- Welcome to CocoMats.com

Had mine for over 3 years now and they still look (and perform) as-new -- no wear or creases/etc.

I am happy with my $55 WeatherTech AVM rubber mats. Trim to fit.
Not a fan of cloth mats of any kind. I can just hose the rubber right off.

Those trim-to-fit mats are available at WalMart.

The Weathertech mats are much nicer than the Walmart ones. With the wonderful collection of older 911s that Dave has, I'd wonder if he'd ever consider making some form fit ones for the early 911s (just as a hobby thing). Unfortunately, the cost of the necessary forms makes that pretty unfeasable, but my wife certainly likes the ones in her Honda CRV.

The great event that he puts on for the Chicago Region PCA (as well as for other marque clubs) has made me a big fan of the WeatherTech products.

What is the color combo of the OP (wwest) car. Metallic green over Cork? looks cool.

I bought a set of weathertechs for my 2001 AWD RX300... didn't fit as well as advertised, weathertech then admitted that the Highlander was used as the measurement model.

Yes, I tried to replicate that with the '01 C4, but new paints are all water based.

Had to settle for Wimbledon green and natural brown leather.
