One thing I found is that it looks much better in the flesh than it does in pictures or peoples imaginations, I had nothing but positive reactions from everyone who saw it. It was the main talking point for any non-car person who had a ride in my car. Just get some good products to maintain it and you won't have any problems.
I wouldn't have an S with a black interior now, it would just be too dark and dull.

everyone said full red was too much until they saw it.Don't agree with black being dull though. It looks great with my yellow, and it's broken up nicely by the yellow trim on my Muz mats.
Couldn't live with black exterior and black interior though... had it in my S3 and it drove me mad!

Lol, it is all about how the colours match up. Obviously yellow and black would look hot, and then red and black.....But red interior....great firstly on moonrock then black and silver.
I will continue to look formy dream s2000 with red interior.

Actually, I swerved the two-tone interior, partly because of a fear of fade away.
The black fades to grey (I've been thrown of of Blacksnake!) But Raggtopp (!) darkens it closer to original, as does Lexol on the leather.
Maybe they'll let me rejoin the band? I'll even buy a new T-shirt.

I like Disaster Area's spaceship, too!
I had always imagined an all red interior would be rather garish. In fact, it seems to work very well - especially with a black car.
Beats me why Honda don't offer Grand Prix White (or for that matter the other white, the pearlescent one whose name escapes me) with an all red interior in the UK.

Nope.
There's just something about a non-black facia moulding that's;
1. Bad for reflections/eyestrain.
2. Reminiscent of 70's Yank trash. Does anyone else remember those horrid blue/green/red HC Viva & Chevette interiors?

I love the centre consoled leathered up too......Black still looks good, I wouldn't say no if the price and mileage were right.
The black leather picture looks like something Batman would wear!
