Default Looking for some feedback

Debating making the move to an 09 cab that's cream over a red interior. It's not a color combination that I would have considered until seeing it in person. The other half loves it, me, I am more of a traditional black or silver kind of guy...

Thought I would get some additional insight from folks here that have no vested interest.

I like the German taxi color with the black classic Fuchs wheels. I am sure the red interior looks fantastic.

You should really buy what you and your other half likes! GLWP!

Your other half loves it! You've already answered your own question.
PS - Love the cream.

I think it gives the car a classic look. The cream with the red interior reminds me of a 356 cabrio.

I also like the Tecquipment/Fuchs, as well as the black stone guards.

I favor the unusual color combinations, and that's a interesting car.
If you have the support of the better half, buy it before she changes her mind!

Never thought I would have liked it as I am not a fan of cabs but that is a very cool looking car. The color, wheels and stone guards really make it pop. Any pics the top down?

So the picture shows the CREAM part well - any chance of a picture of the RED part?

Personally a red interior would get old quick for me.

Until I saw the pic, I didn't like black over cream.
It works...looks pretty good!
Just not sure about the red interior though. Think it'd work better with a black interior...but then I haven't seen a red interior with black over cream.

Another local! I'm gonna guess you bought it because it's gone from Barrier's website. Congrats.
