Red is very bright I could not imagine every day driving red interior. If I see a car with it. It’s like oh cool whatver. But I could not tolerate it daily. I got Tartufo. But black is nice too especially with white exterior.
It doesnt look that bad. The black in the Fiona breaks the red well and I didnt get the full leather just due to that. Ive seen White with FR and it looks soo good !!!

Congrats!!! Im generally not a fan of white or green cars, but with the G80, the white with carbon roof and black (or carbon) exterior package makes it look so cool. Now throw in FR seats with red calipers and you have a bad ass car.

That’s the spec I have on order at the moment. I almost went with Portimao because of Aalfred spec and even had Brooklyn on order for a while.

So many beautiful colors.

Alpine White won me over ultimately. It’s that contrast between the white paint and black accents, along with the red calipers and Fiona red interior.

The whole color choice process was nerve wracking for me. Still is. I second guess myself all the time.

I know your brother finalized his build but here’s a pic of my white on silverstone, since I don’t see this color combo posted that much

I’ve had several F8X and now a G80, all MW and AW. Interiors have been SO, FR and SS. Strangely the orange took the most belt transfer. One SS took some blue jeans transfer, but once I cleaned and protected with Colourlock mild cleaner followed by Shield the SS was protected.

For any new leather interior I’d say Colourlock is a must. The only exception might be Tartufo if you want the worn baseball glove look.

I got Tartufo. I put Gyeon Leather Shield. I actually put it on the dash too (I got full leather).

My brother will probably go nuts when he sees this.

We had the same debate and went with the Silverstone in our BGM G82. We definitely don't have any regrets, but will echo what others are saying about Colourlock...it's a must.
