Beautiful! Thx to your pics seen elsewhere, I went with this exact interior/ exterior theme. Sadly, my build locked before I finally “grew a pair” so my request to change to PCCB’s was denied.

It feels just fine (incl to the passengers). The AC is very good in keeping the cabin cool or warm. While I did like the slate/chalk - I was concerned with keeping it consistently clean (color transfer etc).

Your Slat/Grey interior seems so much lighter than what it appears on the Configurator?

It's definitely lighter than the configurator, but not as light as this picture shows...

I went with Mojave Beige/Black for my order (which hasn't arrived yet), which I didn't realize was such an unpopular combo on these forums at the time I placed my order. I must admit that I really really like the GB with slate/grey a *lot*, and if I was placing my order today, that's probably what I'd go with. I think the GB looks so nice with a lighter interior. (Nothing wrong w/ all black either, for those of you that have that.)

On reflection... with 20-20 hind site, stitching would have worked just fine.


those graphite blue inserts look awesome

I'd go with Slate. As for the silver trim and Classics, that's a perfect combo. Maybe I'm old school, but I'm not a fan of the blacking everything out trend.
