Default Burgundy interior

Yuck, i not bad but I have taken to task changing interior color on a classic car before.

Will this destroy any value to the car if i change it to black. or should i keep burgundy and deal with it. I am getting ready to order carpet and seat skins and figured this is the time to do the change if in fact I do it.

I kept the dash, F&R door tops, rear shelf and carpets burgundy and changed the rest to black.

Didn't fancy changing the dash....too much black is a bit dull anyway!

I think that looks good. I might go black floor mats, but maybe not.

Except on rare models, I would say the quality of the interior effects value more than the color.

hey, whats wrong with the burgundy int.? One of the reasons why I got mine was the burgendy int. With the Grand Prix white ext. it looks classy and unique. Keep it burgundy man. Black is nice but too common.

Yup, what Louis said.

You gotta love Grand Prix White with burgundy interior. I think Grand Prix White is supposed to be invisible to radar!

Dugsud, that is one really nice lloking interior! I have cork, but I'm thinking about mixing it up with black.
I want RS panels too, so that might help make my decision a bit easier. Maybe black RS panels & carpet with cork seats and top rails. HMMMM????
