Once you've had black you never go back . Full red needs to be seen in person, photos don't seem to do it justice, it actually appears deeper than in pictures. Personally I wouldn't have any other colour combo. Some photos of mine:

Black is only the most beautiful colour IF you suffer sufficiently from obsessive compulsive disorder enough to keep it clean.

It gets dirty every 20mins or so.

The orange does look fantastic too. Yellow is good on a sunny day. (when?)

Actually, none of the colours are boring/wrong, unlike many manufacturers' ranges.

Had a black/black/black one and that was quite nice, bit dark tho!

Going to collect my new (02) car in 20 minutes!!!!! Its Silverstone with red leather seats, black carpets and dash. I think this is the perfect combo for me. Silver is fast and easy to clean but with all black leather it would be a tad boring, red leather seats finish it off and match the engine cover! Also order a silver Alpine HU with red buttons to match it throughout.

I think the full red pimp interior is a little too much (again for me) and it also takes something away from the red leather seats, they stand out better against a black dash.

All this is personal opinion tho - you already mentioned you like red and that's one colour I'll never choose.....until I have the funds to call www.maranellosales.com

Silverstone helps you reach and much quicker

go for the orange, if you really want to stand out go for the green!

To see a few in your area next month check this link;

Not sure how many 04's are going but you should get to see most pre 04 paint and interior combo's especially silverstone
Plus you will get to see what tweaks are worth while! On problem it's a Monday night!
