Default GTS interior colour choice

I have nailed the exterior colour GT Silver, I would like to invite your comments on the 3 interior colours I have on my short list

1) Natural leather espresso
2) 2 Tone Black/Platinum grey
3) Mono tone Black

I really like the look of the Espresso natural leather and think it would go perfectly with GT Silver... that would be my vote of these choices. If it helps this car is Platinum Silver with Espresso and it looks fantastic.

For me unfortunately it won't really work with my Sapphire Blue so I'm sticking with black leather/alcantara... as some around here would say blue + brown interior is not optimal.

Thanks Vise......I think you made the right call on the Sapphire Blue. I just finished reading the thread on blue and brown which prompted me to make this post

Natural leather espresso gets my vote.

espresso is the perfect complement to GT Silver.

black/platinum won't work as well as there is insufficient contrast between platinum grey and GT Silver; they will look like they are trying to match each other and failing.

black works with anything, but get some colour in your interior .. you already have black seat belts and black bits in the center console, and dials.

I have the espresso interior with carbon fiber trim.
Every time we get into the car, we are amazed on how nice it is.

I think the CF trim would really work with your GT Silver choice.....

I'd spec it with the GTS comms pkg and go with the carmine red dev stitching and maybe some red dials ...

I hear ya..... I put silver seat belts and white dials. Contemplated painted trim(GTSilver) but thought it was too much
