Arrow Meteor Grey with Cocoa Full leather Interior?

Anyone has pics of this combo? Do you think it'd work?

I consider Cocoa to be a "dark" interior, it'd definitetly work with "light" exterior colors like GT Silver or Arctic Silver. But what about Meteor Grey? Do you think it's more of a dark or light color?

Here is a Atlas Grey with Cocoa TT, http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforum...ith-cocoa.html

Another question is, the rear centre console in exterior color (Meteor Grey) or leather?

Also do you think full leather Cocoa interior would look good with carbon fibre trims?

I think so too, the Cocoa is a very rich color. I'm just not sure if Meteor Grey would be too dark, someone adviced me to go with natural brown interior for more contrast.

I have seen a Seal Grey with Cocoa in the past, and although it looks amazing, I would want it. I am not sure how long this will last before it looks dated, almost 70's like.

if you order white with cocoa, I'll buy it from you in a few years. Not sure I dig that interior color with a gray exterior.

I have full leather Cocoa interior on my '06 Slate Grey Cabriolet. After 20,000 miles it still looks like new. I always get positive comments about the color combo. Slate Grey does have some brown color in it. Several times I've been offered by my dealer to stop by for a free car wash while they show the color combo of the car to a prospective buyer.

Not my fav combo - especially with the carbon. Try some brown slacks with a gray jacket - that's what you are basically looking at - sort of forced.

But you know, different tastes...we had some movers one time putting our stuff into a new house, and they put down a rug we had and my wife said - "oh, that doesn't match well with the furniture" - and the mover said, "if you leave it there long enough, it will start matching."

You should get what you love and puts a smile on your face.

I don't personally care for the cocoa, but that's just me.

I LOVE natural brown leather with meteor grey.
