I really hate it when car manufacturers do not give consumers many choices in what color leather interior they can get with their car. So, what's your favorite color interior? :) What's your favorite exterior/interior color combination on a vehicle?

ME: Blue exterior/Tan Leather

Black for me please(interior and exterior), this is really depending on the car, but I think most cars look better black.

Tan leather all the way.
Exterior, hmmmm varies depending on car. I nice dark blue metallic, or dark green metallic.

Grey looks cheap.
Black is just boring.

I agree. Honda pairs grey leather and cloth with their blue accord sedans - it looks horrible. THe grey is just cheap looking. Tan leather just makes me feel warm and bright - it just puts me in a good mood :)

black leather in the interior. If possible, two toned leeather..with blue inserts in the seat and doors, while black everywhere else.

Exterior colour depends on the car.

Either black or tan leather, although I really don't like leather seats unless they're heated/cooled like Saab leather seats.

Grey leather always seems to look EXTREMELY cheap to me.

I'll go out on a limb here and admit I like grey better. Tan I think looks 70ish. I guess I see why it hard to find grey leather, everyone seems to likes tan.

I always loved the blue interiors in early 90's Civics/CRXs. The blue in my dad's Toyta truck looks pretty good as well. These are all white vehicles btw.

I like a light grey... no leather... a light soft velour. I can go with black fabric as well. Black leather hurts on a hot day and leather gets all sticky if you're wearing shorts... ick.

Also, you slide around too much in leather seats when you're autocrossing... even with a 4pt harness I'd prefer fabric. It's not cold to the touch in the winter... not burning hot in the summer.

Fav ext/int combo is like a dark pearl blue (not quite a midnight blue) with the light grey interior. Though I really like my current car's Saranno Red and light grey fabric combo.

Would never get a car with leather.. I don't care if it's classy or expensive or whatever.. It's just plain uncomfortable.

Doesen't breathe right, IMO. Terrible in summer heat.

Oh.. Kinda misread the question. To answer the question.. It depends on the car's paint color.

It depends all on the exterior of the car. I have tan, ivory, black, and gray leather so far. They were all nice combinations with the cars I owned.

For me it can only be one thing:

Lime green car with powder blue leather interior. The only thing is when I go driving around with my fur coat and sequened hat, all these slutty looking girls keep hanging around my car and giving me money. Don't know what to make of it :confused:





:) Actually I hate leather. I get butt burns from it in the summer. My WRX has this strange stain resistant fabric that's actually quite comfortable on the seats. I've never seen it in any other car...it's kind of like spandex material but a bit more "fuzzy". I don't know....it's comfy though :)

Black interior.
Black, white and silver exterior look good on just about anything.

My car has a white exterior with mostly gray (and some black) cloth interior. I wish I had leather :(

butter cream/white leather (like the Connolly leathers in Jaguar) for luxury cars,

tan leather for SUVs,

red/gold leather for GT coupes/sports cars (or red Recaro seats)...and I don't like the blue alcantara/suede stuff in Audis,

gray for anything with cloth

Peferrably black cloth interior, but black leather would be alright. Exterior colors: dark red, blue, dark green, black.
