Be sure to do so in both shade and sun--only use natural light. My guess is cognac would look great and very rich. Usually it is very close to a black brown which is neutral to other colors. Lighter browns to beige are good to test. Generally speaking, the lighter the color the more difficult it can be to get that rich look and the greater darker colors will contrast--be more noticeable.
You're right, I love cognac leather so much, but it does not go well with maritim trim, but with black piano trim, which I already have. The option with cognac (or other brownish leather) will save me lots of money.

We'll see, I imagine all white leather interior with maritim trim or cognac/orange leather with piano black panels.

I''m with you. I have had black interior on every vehicle for many years. Now I only look at vehicles that offer cognac interior.
