Errr...Signal yellow (which is an awesome yellow) plus terracotta? It'll look like something from McDonalds. Although color is a very personal choice, I wouldn't get terracotta with yellow...it'll make you look as if you were colorblind, IMHO...

Get a black interior/black top with deviated yellow stitching with yellow seat belts and PCCBs.

I'm gonna have to agree, ditch the Terracotta and go for grey interior with yellow deviated stitching. Black would also look great, but grey looks great also and will keep the interior a little more alive. However the Black will really contrast and show off the Aluminum.

First off, congrats in advance on an insane car. As far as the colors, i would have to agree with the others, don't do it. If for no other reason, that may be a very hard resale. I would say black with the SY. Anyways good luck and cant wait to see pictures....

I have to agree with the others but it is your car. Please posts pictures of it when it arrives, especially if you stick to the yellow/terracotta. The yellow/black w/yellow stitching is great.

Yea I'm sorry mate but that combo doesn't sound that good.. Go with a black interior if you want a yellow exterior.
However, if it's what you really want then go for it, it's your car!!

Thanks for your opinions.

Whenever a combination has been designed exclusiv or outside the common thing it seemed strange or outlandish.

In fact the cars with colors sample are sold better. And I am very tired of the colors and combinations of always.
Single I doubt in lowering the tonality of the yellow and leaving it in a pastel yellow.
