Poll: what interior on the vert?

[Bimmerfanatik]

Can't decide what interior to go with on the cabbie. The top is tan, and will most likely stay that way, but it'll be down a lot, so I don't think that has a bearing on my decision.

I'm sure you all know, my car is royalblau, and right now the interior is a beat up tan leather. Here's what I've been looking at.

Blue Leather seats/black panels

I like #1, fits with the car better. otherwise I'd probably go all black.

That's my first choice so far - all black looks nice, but it's boring and it gets WAY too hot. This will only be marginally better, but at least it'll be different...I like it - e39 M5-esque.

maybe not that cloth... but seriously- after two summers with leather (one with red, one with black) I dont think its the way to go for a cabby. Its sooo fucking hot, which is why I'm going to cloth/alcantara.

I would stick with solid colors, the seats with different color bolsters always look tacky.

That orange/tan would be cool if you like to be flashy, either that or go with a darker color. I think cloth would look cheap on the interior except if its the genuine mtech cloth.

I'm with you on this - the cabbie just doesn't seem like cloth would fit it well. I considered neoprene - those wet okole seat covers - sort of give the car a beach feel to it, but I dunno.

The orange was a joke guys - I couldn't believe someone would use that material :)

[Addissimo]

I actually like the orange... If I had a little more german in me, I'd probably sport it.

I was thinking about bright red for a while.

I was too - I think it'd look nice...

Royalblau alcantara. It would be sweet to have your interior match the exterior.

Looks like something from a late 80's Thunderbird.

That's the plan - if I go blue, it's got to be a damn close match to the exterior paint. Maybe alcantara...

Ken, you gotta get me some of that info of your hookup.
