1987 Porsche 911 Targa Interior

A full interior restoration and customization of a 1987 Porsche 911 Targa, elevated through bespoke materials, rare textiles, and a complete Turbo seat installation — combining classic air-cooled Porsche character with highly refined craftsmanship and OEM-plus execution.

At the heart of the project is a specially manufactured head-dyed grey leather, developed exclusively for this interior. The tone was custom created to achieve a precise balance between factory authenticity and modern refinement, ensuring the cabin feels period-correct while visually elevated.

Complementing the leather is a rare imported tartan fabric, selected specifically for this build. The material brings authentic vintage Porsche character into the Targa interior, adding texture, heritage, and a strong motorsport-inspired visual identity that contrasts beautifully with the soft grey leather surfaces.

Turbo Seats — Fully Integrated Restoration

The Porsche Turbo seats were fully rebuilt and integrated into the Targa interior, with every surface completely retrimmed in matching grey leather. The seats are fully “all-in,” meaning even structural and visible plastic components were leather-covered to achieve a seamless, monolithic finish throughout the cabin.

The result is a refined interpretation of classic Porsche Turbo seating — retaining its iconic shape and aggressive bolstering, while gaining a more luxurious, handcrafted execution.

Design Perspective

Subtle. Technical. Timeless.

This interior blends the open-air character of the 911 Targa with the aggressive presence of Turbo seating, unified through a restrained and highly sophisticated material palette.

The grey leather establishes a calm, architectural foundation, while the tartan introduces heritage texture and visual depth. Together, they create a cabin that feels both understated and emotionally rich — a balance of German precision and motorsport history.

Even the smallest details, such as the subtly printed switch markings on leather surfaces, were designed to remain visually integrated while rewarding closer inspection.

Material Philosophy

The design was guided by contrast and restraint:

• Custom grey head-dyed leather for OEM-level harmony
• Rare tartan fabric for heritage and texture
• Full leather integration across all seat components
• Subtle printed detailing for functional elegance

Every material was chosen not just for appearance, but for how it contributes to the overall atmosphere of the cabin.

Technical Craftsmanship

The restoration included:

• Full interior disassembly and rebuild
• Turbo seat conversion and retrimming
• Custom leather dye development
• Tartan fabric integration
• Leather wrapping of structural components
• Precision stitching and upholstery finishing
• Custom printed switch markings

Every surface was individually refined to ensure consistency across the entire interior.
