In certain sun light angles, there's a hint of bronze in the Agate. It's interesting and at one point, I almost didn't recognize my own car! It seems to happen in low sun conditions like dusk.
I've an Agate with black top and LOVE LOVE LOVE my agate/pebble two tone interior! If I were to do it again, I'd add the deviated carpet. I know most don't like the pebble because it may get dirty but, I've had mine for about 5 mos (2500mi) with mostly top down driving and I don't feel a need to clean the interior at all. The contrast is fantastic and I get more comments about the color combo (top down) than the car itself!
In South Florida, it's difficult to have a dark interior with a cabriolet. I HATE sitting in a hot car with dark interior radiating heat! The ventilated seats would NEVER keep up!
That being said, I looked closely at the agate with black/luxor two tone. I really like the darker dash in the two tone option. I've seen a Mahogany/expresso and it's looked fantastic too!
I've noticed a trend away from silver and leaning toward the browns in the german cars. I like it but, also seems a little late 1970's early 80's. Some of the browns these days are beautiful. Gray, silver with tan interior is very Euro as is brown. For me, the silver with black interior is too American and WAY over done!
