Most TR's I've seen the 3208 beige looks a bit "orangy". Even recently saw a TR with dash and center console (and full doors) done in 3208, no dual color interior, everything was beige.

I think the beige is the one that fades to a light yellowish color over time.

Doody,

Not sure of the "official" name but the number is 890. This leather is no longer a "standard" optional color, but it is the dark brown as seen on the dashboard of most Testarossas.

so cuiuo is actually called "cuiuo naturale" hence the use of the word "natural" or "naturale" since us crazy americans can't deal with that many vowels usually ;-)

that clarifies things quite a bit. thanks tino!

doody!

I personaly thought the Tobacco color was more like a chocolate brown in the old days, but now is more carmel colored like the "natural". In the old TR's they have chocolate colored dashes with the tan interiors.

Here's a random one for y'all :-)

As best I can tell, Ferrari makes two types of "tan" interiors.

One is the "standard tan" which is a fairly light colored beige. Extremely common.

Another is a much darker, deeper brown that seems to go by a variety of names including:
"Natural"
"Naturale"
"Tobacco"
"Saddle"
and maybe "Cuiuo" (or something like that)

As to these latter "tans", are they all the same thing - i.e.: that which is most frequently referred to as "Natural"?

TIA,
Doody.
