Best interiors

pcockley · 08-26-2011, 08:17 PM

Well seems Jason doesn\'t like me posting in the newbie thread where he noticed there are a lot of beige interiors ( I suspect he has beige!).

I am surprised at this and thought it was rather unflattering, I might have also mentioned that I thought the red was even less flattering.

Personally I prefer a darker interior I think this has more style.

I guess my thought/question is what would colour combo would put you off buying a car?

Personally white is out (too many corollas on the road) and I could not buy anything beige or red on the inside

Pretty simple Pcock, i would spec the car up with black interior then book it in for Queen Street treatment. I would leave the car to them until they do there magic.

Don't like the timber trim at all, but that can be changed easily enough. As for paint, I dislike black as it is a bit 2000's. Likewise not keen on the darker blues. Oyster and beige leather is tiring and looks odd with dark dash and roof lining. Happiest with Alpine White, Space Grey, Silverstone, Melbourne Red and, if forced, Silver. Black leather makes most sense therefore, but would accept Used Tampon in a AW or SG car.

Hey cockey

I cant read the newbie thread, the english is just too bad

I'm the opposite to you, I think black interiors with black dash looks really cheap and boring... I much prefer beige. It looks way cleaner imo.

I'll probably buy the next m3 (well 335 vs m3 vs others depending on which is faster - next 335 or m3 (post mods)), I probably won't go plat bronze again (lol.)

But white, 'bentley' blue, shrug.. can't be bothered fantasing too much about colour combinations in 2+ years from now...

or an aston vantage... with the bonus that the colour scheme pretty much sorts itself out

Mines black on black and I love it, but tied for fave would be the brown dakota interior.. test drove a 330i with that, beautiful!!

John_01 · 08-27-2011, 02:19 AM

For me there are only 3 exterior colours: Alpine White, Lemans Blue, Silver.
And 3 interior colours: Black, Saddle Brown, Red-Brown (aka Terra).

I'd never buy a car with light coloured interior no matter what. Its going to show marks a a lot more.

I've always been a fan of black on black. I"m liking the newer two tone interiors but it depends on the exterior colour, especially black with a lighter colour to give some contrast.

However, I can never do a beige carpet I'm afraid. I pamper my car when it comes to car-care, and even still I'm not confident it wouldn't mark.

Stuart@BMRAutowerkes · 08-27-2011, 10:35 AM

My colour preferences were: Le Mans Blue, Black, White, Silver in that order...
Interior colour depends on exterior of course but I was pretty keen to avoid black leather just to be different, and also cause there are heaps of nice colours available like coral, lemon, saddle brown...
