One day I'll figure this posting stuff out. Anyway, I want to thank all those that have offered advice and helpful information from the site.
I decided to go 08/09 and found this 08 XKR Portfolio. It fit all I was looking for but I didn't realize I would enjoy having it as much as I have, so far.
I've owned it for a few weeks now. After driving several from 07 through 12, this one just "fit". Not much to do to it other than very minor things
so I can enjoy just diving.

The Portfolio is really nice, that color/wheel/brake/aluminum side vent combination they did for them on the exterior is very sharp.

What is the interior trim?

Thank you!
It's Celestial black on the exterior with charcoal interior. I call it charcoal, it may be a light shade of black, if that makes sense.


This was the first Celestial black exterior I have seen an I really like it. I wasn't wanting black necessarily
until I saw this one. The wood is actually a bit darker or more rich in color than it appears in the picture.

You're close, the official name for the black trim is actually "warm charcoal". Interior bits in that colour have part numbers ending in LEG.

Thank you to everyone for all of the welcomes!
I must say it is an addiction, I look so forward to just going for a drive. Been a while since having a car that makes me feel like that.
