I totally agree that yellow switching with red painted interior does NOT work on any level. But with the right colors I think painted interior can look much better than the sea of black. To each their own I guess but this is how I did mine with Carrara White Metallic, red stitching and painted interior:



LOVE this interior. Mine is spec'd the same way except mine will have platnum stitching. Cant freaking wait. Love the white painted peices. Awesome change from the past 3 Audis w CF.

WOW. I should not have opened this thread. I got my GT4 in production with Carmine red and yellow stitching. Now I'm scared.

Just as the above past few posts show, colors and color/metal/CF combinations are very personal.

If you like it, that's all that matters.

^ Yep - my CR with Yellow calipers and stitching, all the CF options, stuck with black seat belts though, will be delivered in 2 weeks. I have not seen live what my color combo will look like but can tell you I have no regrets and I am excited. Sure, it may look Ferrari-like but heck - always wanted one anyway.

I really am a big Flash fan and thinking this is a GT car it suppose to be 'flashy'. I couldn't get away with this color combo on something other than a GT car. My custom door sill is pretty nerdy as well and has to do with time travel.

I also agree with this. IMO, CarmRed with yellow belts & stitching plus all CF interior rim options and w/ PCCB's is a fine & unique combo and not tacky. That's exactly how I'd spec mine....

I was speechless when mine arrived the other day.... love the yellow contrast on Carmine Red and the CCB's braking effort is perfectly fine. I also spec'd it with yellow belts along with deviated stitiching. What an awesome car! I'm so effin happy!

Love it-CONGRATS -Same build but may regret not doing the Yellow belts.-

You need to get rid of those orange side markers
