I've had this gorgeous set of Sparco seats for a while & have been thinking about selling as I just bought Chuck's A8's and have a few other sets. This is an interesting pair of seats as they were manufactured for the Ferrari 575M, though ended up serving time in one of the few Ford GT test mules (the silver one). Sparco also built the Ford GT seats, so were happy to provide a few sets for the test cars.
Anyway, the color seems pretty close to midnight blue to me from what I've seen, though I'd be interested in hearing thoughts & opinions from those who own cars with MB interiors. As with most colored leathers, they do appear a little darker in person than in photos & light conditions changes the color also (see first 2 photos below).
I've also considered having them dyed, though I think it would be a shame to change these.

Gorgeous seats. It's so hard to tell the interior color with Midnight Blue. That's my interior, and under very bright sunlight it looks almost cobat blue, while most of the time it's almost black.If you were to sell them how much would ask for them?

I have midnight blue and grey interior. Looking at the pics, they seem a bit lighter than my dash and doors. However, if they look darker in person then the photos, they would be spot on.
Very nice, and I'm in the market for seats so if your selling please let me know. Very cool and interesting look.
