Gotcha - both POVs make a lot of sense, I got a lot of thinking to do.

The black/Bordeaux is a pretty interior, but I think it is a lot with a red exterior and the configurator doesn’t really display this color accurately in my opinion. The guards red and Bordeaux will clash in two shades of red. I did a configurator with a cab open top so you can kind of get the idea.



the color isn’t 100% accurate but it does show the differences in reds.



I tried to find a real example of this but couldn’t. You can choose black leather which is a bit cheaper than the two tone option and then select deviated centers with Guards red. I think that would match better, give you your red/fun interior and not be as overwhelming.

That being said I’d probably do black interior with red deviated stitching or maybe red seat belts and tach or something as I am not a huge red interior guy.

Get the all leather interior which is befitting a 125K car.

If you are on a budget, you have plenty of "splurgy type" options you can remove-This one is a necessity IMHO.

Note, with the leather interior, it's 130k. But I agree with you -- there should be full leather interior standard. For my money, nothing beats the Sports tex full leather package.

Thanks guys - makes sense, the two shade red would indeed be weird, I'll probably do the full leather in black. Funny thing that I never considered the interior leather at all before this post, grateful for the feedback.

Similar to my build but I traded wood and sport exhaust for FAL and a Sunroof. You might consider the big fuel tank. Comes in handy.
