Square Weave and Originality
Just had the flickering bulb pop up over my head. In our quest for originality, I now recall how limited our options were on Porsche's products back in the early '70's, and beyond. Had the opportunity for multiple visits to the factory, one time in 1971, several in 1981-1982. Where the factory gave us three choices in the early '70's, tan, brown, black, the ROW pretty much had the sky as the limit. Still recall a factory rep commenting on how "you Americans are so conservative" in color/material preferences. When ordering my U.S. spec SC, the factory was willing to pull up any upholstery material they'd ever used, and even offered to use material I provided. I still have a sample somewhere that the rep suggested for my black targa-- black velour with red pinstripes for the inserts, black leather with red piping for the rest of the seat. Being a conservative [German] American, I went with the tan interior.
Bottom line: if you like it, go with the square weave.
